out of over 33 nations

So 34 nations?

I thought the same thing, if you're going to say "out of over" then use a round number after it. Even then, it's weird phrasing. "Out of 30+" would be more natural imo. Though, just using the specific number is better still.

my brain says 34=OECD countries. But i just looked it up and OECD has 38 now. So either more countries have been admitted since i was in school or i'm thinking of another international economic organization.

Calling the US highly developed is a bit of a stretch. Maybe its tier 1 cities sure but much of its midsize cities and less prosperous states have been in a process of urban decay for the past 20 years.

I can't imagine what state the healthcare system would be in right now if the current federal government was in charge of it

Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.

Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.

This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.

Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rules


  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

  7. No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.
