    The US is far from perfect, but we are not currently committing a genocide against our citizens. We have a terrible for-profit justice system, but it’s not a genocide.

    And, I can’t believe it needs to be said, but a country commiting a genocide is worse that a country that’s not.

      In an immediately seen sense, the US is not really committing a genocide. However, the corporations that control the US through lobbying and bribes and whatever else are literally destroying the planet past the point where humans can survive. So, while before we all burn your living conditions might be better, the country is working towards a far greater death count.

      @_danny, simply the US Health System is a silent genocide and reason for the most part of homeless people.
      The Social System of US is one of the worst in the world.
      Any country has its corpses in the basement and China is certainly not an example of an ideal society, but the US is not one iota better, quite the contrary.

      True, but let’s be real here: it’s only true, because you started the genocide much earlier and at this point in time are basically done, besides when some holy site or other is in the way of building an environment destroying pipeline and necessitates a belated mop up operation on a scale small enough to be largely overlooked, especially by corporate media who couldn’t give a fuck about any genocide that can’t be used to further a profitable agenda anyway.

      @_danny, not against the own people? or genocide? US not in the own population ('?, see history), but until now in more other countries worldwide than any other country. Don’t paint the US as the good in the world, it’s far from this. If you speak about worst countries speak about North Corea ore some other countries, which ar “friends” of the US, or South American Countries where the US destroyed a Democracy

      There is a second part of the video about homeless people
