Notice how when confronted with facts the hexbear has no real argument but assumes being obnoxious is the same as making a coherent argument.
Cuban refugees carry a higher level of risk than other countries, and yet they still come. Ignoring facts doesn't make a country better. You wouldn't let a fact like that slide from the US. Hexbears lack intellectual honesty.
So once again, your argument is "rich country good, poor country bad"
No, it's that saying one place is worse doesn't make it so.
Human development index and quality of life studies put the US ahead of Cuba. Cuba isn't a hellhole that many people make it out to be, but that doesn't automatically make it better than the US.
Cuba has better healthcare and lower cost of living, but Americans aren't on rafts to Cuba.
One of the problems with enacting good and lasting change in the western world is that life is pretty darn good on the whole. It could be a lot better, but just shouting that the US is bad is mindless propagada. Be better than that.
Correct, you saying Cuba is worse doesn't make it so.
"Rich country good, poor country bad"
"Rich country good, poor country bad"
Yes, because the West ruthlessly exploits the global south to prop of it's own standards of living. This is why serious socialist revolutions have mostly only occurred in the Global South.
Real bad faith framing of your opponents argument there; be better than that.
Like trying to reframe my argument as "rich country good, poor country bad"?
I've mentioned statistics, I've mentioned a human angle and I've been upfront about what ways Cuba is better than the US. You've tried to dismiss my argument by misrepresenting it. This level of insecurity shows how shallow your beliefs are.
No reframing needed, that was just your argument.
So what exactly is your argument?
Lol, what anime did you crib this line from?
The hexbear is so afraid of introspection and thoughtful consideration of their beliefs they lash out.
Is that from the same anime as your last line?
