It's funny cos many of the things he's describing are things that America is guilty of too.

e/ and yes the UK is guilty of some of them too to inb4 the whataboutism and deflections.

It's relevant in my case because of the subject. I.e. Trump says 'no people from shithole countries' and dude in video is giving reasons why Trump is right that they are shithole countries but those reasons also apply to America. So either Trump is wrong or he's right and America is also a shithole country. Neither conclusion being the one intended by the guy who made the video or the guy who reposted it here.

UK on the other hand has absolutely fuck all to do with the matter.

degree is what is important here, the usa and shithole countries aren't comparable

I don't.

I also don't have to disagree with the conclusion to point out the flaws in an argument.

your conclusion of "So either Trump is wrong or he's right and America is also a shithole country" is incorrect. If the standards are a country isn't utopia it's therefore a shithole and all countries are equal, sure. If it's more reasonable and that there's an obvious difference between a shithole country that literally eat mud and the richest and most powerful country in the world then your conclusion is wrong.

nigeria is a shithole, but dont take it from an actual guy from there

everyone knows trump is right, but the hysteria must continue

if only more africans had the ability to actually reflect on their failures

It's not my conclusion. It's the logical conclusion of the argument the guy in the video is making.

Idk man. What I'm hearing from left-leaning TV personalities at least is that they don't want Oprah to run. Pretty consistently. Ofc I don't live in the US so no idea what the average democrat voter has to say on the issue. I'm pretty sure most of the liberally minded people here on Jsp would agree that she isn't qualified to run for pres though. Am I right lads and ladettes?
