If I hear one more American comparing the Trump regime and how America is doing "even worse than North Korea"

I will personally pay for your ticket to NK.[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzTC31JA7DY]
I'm so done with the extreme social justice warriors (that have all the minimum conditions to live a normal life)in the west, and even the communist people in my own country claiming it has been better during those times.

@LvChris: There are people with dead parents everywhere, a few might indeed be unfortunate enough to be homeless as well. We re talking about masses here, we re talking about a country ruled by a dictator that has forced his people to cut ties with the real world. These people living under an authoritarian regime do not have any option other than starving to death if they "disobey" the government. How can you just disregard this as worthless in context just because there are some people suffering in other countries as well? The mentality of most people... this is the problem with the world.

@LvChris: Because that guy is talking to one person?? So it disregards it as real just because there is ONE person in the video? Dear, you can just search in North Korea once and you will get thousands of reports on humiliated, starved people. And also, you are proving to me that all you can do in this situation is victimise yourself. I have[b]never[/b] stated that all americans live a happy, carefree life. It is impossible for there not to be problems in society on each country's level, it is about the extent of how many people we are talking about and the fact that there are absolutely no human rights there. In America I know there's drugs and sex trafficking, but there are people WITHIN the country, UN, other nongovernmental or governmental organisations that want to HELP AGAINST THESE THINGS. There is nothing of that sort happening in North Korea because it is not aknowledged by the state that they are doing a bad thing.

@LvChris: It is you who talks to me as if you know even the tiniest thing about me. As a matter of fact, I will join "these organisations" and I'm not delusional enough to think I ll fly to NK and hide in people in my luggage and save them from the regime. And you are once again victimizing yourself. Ranting and projecting? Nowadays you cannot say anything about the things you care about and are interested in because of course, they are only "rants". If you will agree, I think this discussion leads nowhere and it is better to end it soon, what do you say?

@LvChris: For a man in his forties I would have thought you had some kind of a knowledge how things work and some empathy, my bad. I am not enrolled into one organisation but I do participate in everything each organisation in my country has to offer. From donations, to projects to public speaking to raise awareness. I am not just typing some shit on the internet because I'm some entitled, superior 20 year old who has dreams of "saving the world" by typing in some stuff on the internet.
For me it was a discussion, regardless of what you say. Despite your view on things which I can't agree with, I am still able to respect it. Thing which you haven't learned in 40 years doubt you'll learn it now..
but oh well.

@LvChris: If you felt like I attacked you then I apologise for it. I did not take anything you said personal and in the end no matter what I say it's not for you to tell me I'm right or something, I do not require your validation at all. I was glad to hear an opinion and since I disagreed with it I wanted to object to what you said. And also your age range says 36-40, did not know you would be offended for something as small as that (though I should have seen it coming) but yes, I apologise for that too.
I honestly do not care what you do in your real life, it was you who told me to join some organisations if I really care about world problems and that is why I felt the need to justify myself.

@GoldenWorm: I wonder if it's an age thing. I really don't hear most the crap people complain about on both sides of the coin.

My parents taught me that religion and politics are not topics to be discussed at work or even at parties.

I find that on SW, when I break my own rule and hop into politics, nothing good comes from it.
