it doesn’t make sense to think of our countries as some non-Western society, it’s inaccurate and a bad framework to try to change our life.
wrong, it’s the UTMOST FUNDAMENTAL basis upon which to change your lives
if Latinos can’t even agree that they are their own bloc, then how do you expect change to ever occur? Imagine if China was 20 different countries, with squabbles about the North being “uhhh totally Mongol/Russian acktschyually” do you think they would have ended up better or worse materially? Obviously a lot worse!
why is India doing better than Nepal Pakistan Sri Lanka etc? Why do they have 300 nukes and a space program?
Because it’s a union of smaller countries like Punjab Tamil Nadu Kerala and etc. India is still bad, but if there were a communist revolution there, there’s nothing the West could do! While in a small country like Niger or Kenya, they can just overthrow it easily!
and if the Indian nation-states (meaning Punjab and Kerala and Maharashtra and Assam) can unite, there’s no reason that Latin American countries can’t do so. The Indian ones have 4-10k years of uninterrupted history and ethnic differentiation, so I think a continent where everybody already speaks Spanish and Portuguese can manage the same thing
