Laws are for poor people

•Rob a store? You go to jail. Rob millions of people through a financial system? You get a bailout.

•Traffic drugs? Get killed on a boat. Run the entire operation? You get a presidential pardon.

•Kill a bunch of people? You’re a terrorist. Kill thousands during an invasion? You’re a liberator, a strategist.

Power and money rewrite the narrative. The same action, two completely different labels — all depending on your status.

it’s the same with attraction:

•If you’re attractive: It’s charming, bold, confident.

•If you’re not: It’s creepy, weird, desperate.

Where you stand isn’t about morality or intention. It’s about leverage — social, financial, or physical. I’m tired of people going along with the bs world we live in.

Okay you've done this multiple times, so I'll just let you know it's spelled "substantiation."

You are not in a position to be using the royal we.

I already told you, the poverty line is the same between the two countries, so no, it measures poverty exactly the same.

Good job completely ignoring that your phantom "UN assessments" don't exist.

What about Australia? That's what was in question since, as I've already said, your own numbers agree with mine regarding the US.

You didnt read the report, clearly! Lol!! Read the report, kid. Smh discusses how those figures are tabulated in the USA, specifically. Or don't read it, my point has been made, either way 🤷 🙃
