      Yeah the criteria are kinda weird...

      EDIT: Oooh I just realized that this picture was supposed to be showing something else and the "cringe zone" thing was added afterwards... That explains it lol

        Yes this was originally a graphic on global income disparity

            It still says it there, something like how 73% of the world's income is concentrated in the populations of those territories.

              Is it supposed to be the highest income countries that are in the green? Because there's definitely some countries that aren't in the green, and which have a higher income per capita than some of the ones that are in the green (the UAE comes to mind).

                Yes

                Keep in mind this isn't necessarily a "white imperialists bad" thing, after all it includes Japan, South Korea, Israel, Greece, and Italy.

                  Now I'm even more confused, are you implying Greeks and Italians aren't white?

                    The sheer amount of olive oil exuded from their pores precludes the possibility

            That graphic was created in 2009 by TDArchitects and is about border zones/walls used to maintain global wealth inequality.

      Doesn't matter how fascist you are, it's simply about power levels, a homeless fascist is not as dangerous as a rich fascist
