Things have gotten better and progress has been made from times past, it just seems worse now because we have more access to information. We’ve come far, and have further to go!

    I don’t know if you remember the meme… but it’s about extreme poverty and extreme poverty declines, because China does a huge job in this field. This is a fact. And you said that poverty is not a problem in the USA. You’re always saying, that you can’t compare those numbers, because you have to measure them differently, but it’s also fact, that poverty were rising in the US, while it was declining in China. If the west would do such an excellent job in fighting against poverty, we would all knew it and there wouldn’t be a need to mention China. Also if you’re comparing it worldwide China is still leading, while in the West poverty rises. Google risk of poverty in europe, the last few years were horrific. And you also have to mention, that if the west can do everything good, the west can also fight against poverty. But here we are and we are seeing nothing. I don’t know if you understand the problem or if you are just against China.

      What? English please. Here’s an article. This one explains why this oh so huge achievement has not been made in other countries. To save everyone some time: Because no other country had this problem.

      If you wanna bring up a “risk of poverty” then please also provide some statistics on why this is relevant.
      The CCP doesn’t even have a statistic on this.

        I am speaking english. What is your fucking problem? What are you talking about? Others countries don’t have such problems? Ok, bro… There are no poor people in the west. It’s a myth. I have understood.

        The conclusion approves my statements. I don’t know what you wanna say. Can you please speak english?

          Yes. No other country had hundreds of millions of people in extreme poverty.

              😂 Is it states or countries now? Yes. Other countries have not caused hundreds of millions of people to be in extreme poverty.
              Other countries also do not have:

                Oh, so you’re saying Great Britain did nothing during colonization? Come on, this is ridiculous, now.

                You forgot the “Beep Boop Boop”, if you wanna spam Bot-things. It makes it easier to understand for me.

                  Is Great Britian boasting about how many people they “lifted out of poverty”? Did Great Britian have millions of people in extreme poverty in 2019? No. No they don’t and didn’t.
