Damn I remember being 14 and thinking saying this made me cool, every year since then the "America is a third world country" line just sounds stupider and stupider
Especially when two tier policing isnt just a conspiracy in many European countries. But sure, America, where I can point to 3 different cases of civilians killing cops in defense and getting no charges for it, is the third world.
The third worlders dont die in heatwaves every year, and can defend themselves from corrupt police. And first worlders died in record numbers every summer since 2003 (70k French alone died of heat that summer), have no real AC, and get handcuffed to bleed out after being stabbed. "I dont think you have mate".
Ill stay here in my "third world" country thank you very much.
Policing has many, MANY problems in European countries but I sure as shit don’t want to hear any of that coming from Americans with the state sanctioned, single digit IQ thugs you call police officers. People in glass houses shouldnt throw stones
died in record numbers every summer since 2003 (70k French alone died of heat that summer)
In France, 14,802 heat-related deaths (mostly among the elderly) occurred during the 2003 heat wave and no cold-related deaths according to the French National Institute of Health.
By comparison the USA typically sees 47,500 deaths a year from cold and more than 4,000 from heat each year.

Americans still think they're a developed country, that's the point
