Dunno, more than the 5 that died building the Empire State Building? Or the 96 that died building the Hoover dam? Or the 11 that died building the Golden Gate Bridge? Or the 5,609 that died building the Panama Canal?

Get off your high horse

I was more talking about the entire city, But whatever. Look if you guys don’t care about the human rights violations committed by this country and countries like it just say that, but don’t act like I’m just “MaKiNg sHiT uP” because your showing your ignorance.

I’ll just leave this here. That was 2013 it’s only getting worse

An opinion piece from 2013. lol.

Meanwhile in the US, the highest incarceration rate in the world. Over 400,000 prisoners. An average of 65 cents an hour. Cops killed over 10,000 citizens since 2013. Regular mass shootings. Regular school shootings. Treats refugees and migrants like enemy combatants.

Here's what a fact-based website looks like. Not that opinion piece you linked from 2013.

Good point. I’m not arguing against it. But we could do this all day

Saying “yeah well it happens here too!” Is a terrible argument, are you justifying human rights violations as long as it happens in the U.S. also?

It literally starts off “In a joint effort between New York Center For Foreign Policy Affairs, The International Institute For Global Strategic Analysis and the Washington Institute For Defense and Security”

Are these institutes not accredited enough for you? I’m genuinely curious what the debate is about now, are these your folks? 😂

Btw I’m voting every comment you make, because everything you’ve said was correct, I just don’t think it should be a slavery dick swinging contest. Dubai, India, America and China are all capitals of slavery. Each finding a unique way to justify their injustices. Once again, cool elevator tho
