    If your definition of democracy and freedom is aiding and abetting genocide, war crimes, military interventions, and resource theft.

    I am in a generous mood, let’s assume non-Europeans aren’t equal people and so the crimes committed against them don’t count. How does [European-style]* democracy and freedom guarantee better outcomes? Europe has been experimenting with democracy for over 2000 years -not continuously obviously-, how are the outcomes today better than when they had Socrates poisoned?

    * I would argue that the PRC is a better democratic model than Europe with better outcomes.
