    And yet it's the number one example neolibs love to bring up with how their ideology and American imperialism "works".

      it's the same with japan. It's because they don't need to destroy the landscape for resources, so the technological growth counts as a "good" thing.

          yeah. The west talks a big game about it's asian colonies, but just doesn't have the numbers to back it up. Also I thought you were referring to the actual reddit island for a second.

              a couple times some redditors have tried to get an island so they could start their own country. It's like those roving money pits from tumblr back in the day except way more smug and less likely to admit they got scammed. I watched a video about it, it was pretty ableist in it's language so I won't recommend it. The information probably is out there on youtube, or you could look it up on reddit.
