Nah let’s be real they’re probably just a shitlib who thinks putting BLM in their bio and supporting Warren makes them a leftist

I'm kind of a dumb dumb, can you put that chart into words please? Wealth decile is how proportionally wealthy a given demographic is and the percentage on the right is how much of that region they make up?
The percentage on the left is how much of that decile can be found in the given region. Of the bottom 10% of earth: 10% of them can be found in the US. About 15% of them from Europe. And virtually 0 from China.
Of the RICHEST 10% on earth: 65% of them are Western. Only 10% from China.
it's global wealth deciles numbered 1 thru 10.
For example, the average American is extremely rich, except for the 10% of Americans who are in the bottom 10%ile of global wealth (and also the 10% of Americans who are in the 20-60%ile of global wealth)
The average American is extremely rich, but the variance is extremely high. If you were to be born somewhere random, it would be safest to be born in China, where you have a guarantee of avoiding the worst poverty.
ok that's incredibly striking compared to everywhere else and yeah I see that now. The average American is either very globally rich or incredibly desperate, no middle ground. It would explain why you only have three true political movements in the USA: nice imperialism, mean imperialism, and completely apathetic.
