[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think it means much in the US. However, when I have traveled around the world, I notice that the[b] crappier[/b], poorer countries all have prominent signs for Pepai and the wealthier countries have signs for Coke. You actually could tell a country was rising economically when you noticed Coke signs going up.  I think it had something to do with production and licensing models. [/quote]

Really? That’s the best word you could think of?[/quote]

If I can’t drink the water, eat the fruits and vegetables, can’t walk around the streets without an armed escort, live in a closed compound,  have to get loads of shots and take medicine to avoid getting dire illnesses, and am staring at refugees, malnourished children, and widespread extreme poverty, yes it’s a crappy country. Do you feel better for virtue signalling from the comfort of the US? Romanticizing poverty and distress doesn’t actually help. [/quote]

You have just described Detroit.  [/quote]
