European Sex Tourism in Thailand or Bali is also a special one
I don't think most people in the States even know/give a shit that other people live in Caribbean countries, it's basically a playground for vacationing to the wealthy.
This logic makes no sense, because privileged Western countries are in the position to consider not letting the filthy poors from the global south in. Countries in the global south aren't in a position to not let Western sexpats in, even thought they should.
I meant to say exactly that if it wasnt clear - Western "freedoms" are their privileges over others
China, Russia, Iran and the DPRK aren't "free" because they don't allow the west to trample over them
Sorry, I was talking about the guy in the tweet, not your post.
It's so stupid. If America (or Britain) is a "rich" nation no one would have to go to the "poor" nations for affordable Healthcare and education.
You are unlikely to see the billionaires going to some private hospital in India for a heart surgery, the type of westerners who go to global south countries with private Healthcare disparity are the "middle-class", those who have enough money and time to travel but not enough to afford the expensive domestic Healthcare.
Oh, it's about us going there alright... accessing the plant, mineral, and labor resources in cheaper nations, their compradors kids studying overseas, returning to bake their countrymen in the sun, invading and occupying wherever we like...
Also, WTF is up with that horrible book cover.
It’s like a redneck mud flap liberating itself from its own existence.
So I'm not the only one who saw that, good.
The downside of europe's rapidly declining position in the world is that there may be an increase in european emigration. I hope the western hordes go to america instead of invading the civilized world.
Not sure white people all concentrating in North America's necessarily better than them being dispersed across the globe.
Okay cool so clearly the author is going to analyze the exploi.... oh no
Goes to show that the difference in purchasing power between different countries is partially a product of geopolitics and not merely because the rich countries have more efficient economies.
In any rational world, nobody from a rich country would need to travel to a poor country to increase their purchasing power. The very idea would be nonsensical. Imagine going to a country that produces things more inefficiently and this somehow allows you to consume more products!

There is a lot to get into and I am short of time, but I wouldn't really say "inefficient" - after all, the median worker in the global south has directly and indirectly more surplus value extracted at lesser compensation (super-exploitation and super-profits) - that's very efficient. All those mountains of goods produced and they will probably never go on any trips or consume like westerners feel they have to - EDIT I assume you meant to say that, maybe I just overreading things
Well, what I mean exactly is that production in the poorer nations is usually significantly more labor intensive. If the labor of rich country citizens exchanged at the same rate as those of poorer countries, a first worlder would going to a third world country would actually experience a massive decline in purchasing power.
