Westerners eat meat everyday, nearly everyone drives cars everywhere, they buy heaps of cheap clothes and electronics made by slave or near-slave labor, they drink coffee and eat chocolate grown by the same. They go on expensive, polluting and disruptive globetrotting vacations. You think all that and more will stick around in a more equitable society?
I’m sorry I wasn’t inclusive enough in my chastising, Commissar. It’ll be the same story for them, too.
Jesus christ dude give it a rest.
Easterners have running water, they have cell phones, they make trash that goes to landfills, they also have A/C systems, they drive cars
When I read “West”, I read “developed world”.
Japan, South Korea, Tawain, etc, are as developed as the West. Most of China is now too, but there are billions more that aren’t developed.
“Global north” is probably a better term to describe level of development. “West” also includes a cultural component.
