As an American with any understanding of international capital exploitation, how can I even justify my continued living? I live in abject poverty by the standards of my country, and yet my entire existence is still predicated on unfathomably death and exploitation in the global south. Every time I draw breath it bears the weight of a thousand holocausts. I cannot avoid the rivers of blood that line the streets of the place I was born in. There is no food I could sustain myself that doesn’t trace itself to hundreds of dead innocents in the global south. Isn’t it the most morally justifiable act to just fucking kill myself so one less amerikkkan eats off the labor of the international proletariat?
>>798099You could go live innawoods and live off the land.
>>798100That seems too hard
>>798099if you really have enough hatred to self delete then you definitely have to in you to channel it outwards to something more productive than just killing yourself. why not find an external object to release these frustations. or at least some type of sports, gymrotting etc. you are already born and it honestly takes too much energy and willpower to kill yourself than to improve or vent these frustrations so you might as well make it worth it
You can relax because thirdworldist economic theory is completely false. Rich countries are rich because workers in rich countries are highly productive, not because they stole wealth from poor countries.
There is a very very simple way to prove this. Suppose you completely cut off the first world from the third world. Zero trade, zero migration, zero capital flows. Who would be better off in the long run?
Refer to Paul Cockshott for his brutal takedown on thirdworldist nonsense.

consumption levels in first world nations are fundametally ecologically unsustianable and biased requiring by design a super exploited south.
>>798106productivity argument is bs. because the global south still does majority of the labour and produces majority of physical raw materials etc. for global trade and nothern consumption. even work in the same sector in the same capital intensity is undervalued in the south eg: healthcare. productivity is more about what is produced than what someone is willing to pay for it because prices can be fucked with due to exchange rate differences, elasticities of products. structural adjustments and financial rents etc.
>>798103>Suppose you completely cut off the first world from the third world. Zero trade, zero migration, zero capital flows. Who would be better off in the long run?Probably the countries with all the raw materials I’d I had to guess.
Look you don't need a marxist reason to kill yourself. If you wanna do it, just do it
