Except the State can take anything and everything away from you whenever they want, which happens in China, quite regularly if you're an activist. In the US, they can also do this, true, but at the risk of causing mass civil disobedience, rioting, and protesting.
Fact remains is that these are both deeply flawed countries where it's wealth over health. In your opinion, what's a good country we should all strive to be like?
Is the US freer? Yes, unmistakably, you can criticise officials and you have more expression. But are you safe, will you be cared for? No. Is it as free as most wealthy nations? No, not quite.
lmao, hexbear doesn't include edits, what a shitty site
