Even those states often praised as moral examples, such as the #Scandinavian countries, rely on vast transfers of value from the #globalSouth through unequal exchange. Their #social stability is built on the hidden #exploitation of others.

#Socialdemocracy, then, is not a step beyond #capitalism but a softer version of it. The illusion works only for those who benefit from it. The #miners in #Congo & the garment #workers in #Bangladesh who feed Western #industries see through it clearly.
