    I’m going with @Sandouq_Dyatha here and say that you are not all international elite spies.
    And it’s not that “countries I don’t like manipulate their GDP”.
    It’s more that GDP measurements, including the PPP kind, are fundementally flawed and that’s by design.
    China is around 2.5 times the economy of the US at this moment by looking how much they are manufacturing
    and how much electricity they use, surpassing the EU per person.

    Liberals are rightwing.

    There was a brief moment the US democratic party went social democratic, from Roosevelt to Carter and these days there’s a small resurgance with Mamdani.

    But Clinton, Obama, Biden, Harris and Cuomo are all at the very least centre-right wing.

    Capitalism: If you have two cows, your landlord decides they’re tenants late on rent,
    then your landlord sells your cow, buys a bull.
    Then your landlords shoots your other cow and tells you it was attacking him and acted only on self defense.
    As punishment, he gets to eat your cow.
    You protest and then he shoots you.

    To answer Pete Buttigeg:

    That’s the point! We’re not Benjamin Netanyahu who enjoys targeting everyone but soldiers and police officers.

    You know those Russian soldiers dropped their weapons during the October revolution.
    If American soldoers are wise, they’d do the same.
