Hi, I’m looking for a country whose people or government mainly support my values. I’m looking for a country that:

  • supports wildlife protection

  • supports eco-friendly things and solar/wind energy

  • supports freedom of expression and does NOT criminalize queer people, be it trans, gay, bi, pan, intersex, asexual, etc.

  • peaceful, low crime

  • community-oriented

  • equal and just

  • very friendly towards animals, filled with animal sanctuaries and no-kill shelters

  • free education and/or healthcare (preferably education and healthcare are free/government-funded)

  • high taxes are therefore fine to me

  • compassion-oriented

  • affordable food with low unhoused rates and high employment rates

      The global south. The US Empire, and its vassals in Europe, all work together in order to plunder the global south through a combination of millitary intervention, financial domination, and unequal exchange.

        Happy cake day, by the way.

        I know it’s the theory that the Western lifestyle in general is built on that, but Denmark’s state budget is pretty easy to verify as coming from Denmark.

          Thanks.

          It’s not about simple accounting, but instead Denmark’s participation in broader systems of imperialism and unequal exchange. Unequal exchange, for example, results in monopoly prices charged for goods produced in the west, and maintains dominance over IP while relying on foreign labor for the earlier parts of the supply chain.
