I believe in a society, where every choice has consequences, and you accept responsibility for them. I reject a society where every desire becomes a right, where every whim becomes a right, where i have no responsibilities, and i have only rights. Giorgia Meloni Italian pm

Does Dave Rubin's history of America, where "almost everybody, really with almost no exceptions, when they got here their life was better and then their children's life was better" include native Americans?

For people alive and relevant today… yes. They’re better off than had colonialism never happened. For the ones dead and gone it was obviously awful. But they’re not here. So his statement does need qualification, in that he is referring to today’s Americans.
Ask Rubin about the mothers of his "children". The ultimate selfishness.
It is not always leftists who take away what you have , for me it happened in nationalistic oriented EU country called Latvia. I'm really not sure that it is so simple anymore just to tell the left like communists ,
Democracy traduced; tipping-point passed, a majority now votes itself licence to be irresponsible and receive unlimited largesse from the public treasury. It re-elects those who pander to it . . .
