You want to see nothing but abuse by the corporations and their 'western pawns' so you find it and see it and ignore the rest where it contradicts your ideology. You spin my remarks to make it sound like I was implying the west and capitalist interests are pristine clean when I've made it clear on numerous occasions and in that most recent post that I merely view them as a lighter shade of gray in comparison to most of the existing powers that be in those places. You even managed to twist my remarks to make it sound like I was implying the people in those places were somehow inferior.

It's like you're so attached to your worldview that you absolutely refuse to read anything that might show you a contradiction. You ignore all numbers, you object to the claim that standard of living in many of those places has risen even though all data says it has, even the HD index you previously used to cite to show the glories of socialist Europe. How can you claim that technology has not helped humankind? and that's what you're doing though I'm sure you'd deny it, you just cover it in thin aspersions to capitalism. Well a centralized egalitarian society would do the same things, move it's assets to where they can do the most good, bypass the $50 hammer in favor of the functional equally $5 one. You despise the primary method for improvement so you attempt to deny the improvement has taken place. In a world of 6 billion people you invariably seize on the always present and numerous bad things over the good to reinforce your beliefs. You could look at some place and pick out the mineshaft for blood diamonds and look right past the hub of a center-pivot irrigation system because you don't want to see anything that will screw up your comfortable millenarian outlook on life and it would distract you from a good rant about corporate corruption and campaign donations.
