South Korea's likely new President, Yoon Suk-yeol, believes:
-The work week should be 120 hours, not 52 -Food safety standards should be eliminated because "poor people should be allowed to eat substandard food for lower prices" -There should be no legal minimum wage
:south-koolrea: when?
I have begun to realize that the global north turns people into sociopaths, and if I ever want to bail to a place with any shred of decency, it has to be the global south.
China would be nice, but Uruguay or Costa Rica would be a dream to escape to when Richard Spencer/David Duke inevitably wins a landslaide victory in 2028 and Nick Fuentes becomes the Senate majority leader.
I think capitalism turns people into monsters and those who don't end up as sociopathic misanthropes end up wildly depressed living in the same space as them.
That's probably a better way of putting it.
I know I vent a lot on this site, but at the end of the day I believe that everywhere, including the global north and including America are full of genuinely good people, but they're not the ones in power and that capitalism has terminally claimed many of their countrymen.
Something tells me this is my sign to start reading Lenin and Castro and learn to organize.
It's why I believe more in reeducation more so than outright execution. I think people are good too and I wholly believe in nurture rather than nature. People simply become the product of their environment, and the environment in capitalist countries is deeply sick. It's how prisons should work but don't. Rehabilitate people back into fitting in with the rest of society, in being good people and given a fighting chance to remain on a healthy path.
You try reeducation for as long as it takes and the death sentence is dying peacefully in your sleep having become a better person
I'm aspiring to both. I really want to enjoy the breadth of possibilities that are uniquely available under capitalism.
I mean the global north has been sending evangelicals down here to make us more like them.
My understanding is that Mormonism and Evangelism are converting new victims at alarming rates.
Wont climate change eventually render much of the global south uninhabitable?

Yeah, uhh... we're experiencing catastrophic weather events right now that weren't predicted to start until the 2050s or later. Don't bet any money on "not in our lifetime".
