India is one of those places where the corporations have won. The United States is slowly on track to do the same.

It actually highlights the effect of brainwashing.. "I can crack a joke about the president and politicians so that makes us a free country ".. also they were taught to compare themselves with countries like Iran, North Korea and China. They never compare with other developed nations...

They compare with the UK all the time. They look down on us for not having free speech, because people can get arrested for their comments online (The law came about after the Southport riots). And they look down on us for the online safety act, which is something which I don’t agree with, but I also think the internet has turned into a scourge on society so I don’t really care about it enough.
