If it also makes you feel better, most countries in the world continue to exploit their, and other countries populations. In that aspect, the US exploits fewer than many other countries.

I’m sorry to disappoint you but the US is the driving force of the destabilisation of many countries in order to more easily exploit their resources.

A huge quiet player in neo colonialism is France. You can watch the new real life lore about it. It's honestly on par with both the UK and US.

I agree, but to say that there are countries that are worse than the US in that aspect is just false. There is no other country in the world that causes as much damage to the lives of normal people than the US.

Citing real life lore or being taken seriously... you can only have one

Have you heard of England?

Well we didn't claim to invent exploitation. Just to have perfected it.

I’m talking about the present time.

Extremely doubtful, I've seen what we're used to paying for wages. Every company you've ever interacted with has a foreign team that they're paying $2 a day for, whether that be for tech support, customer support, materials gathering/construction, or shipping.
