Domination.

We in the West pride ourselves on our free democracies.

But the West maintains its privileged economic position by domination.

The Western Democracies have the largest and most modern armies with which to attack anyone who challenges our position of privilege.

We collude with rich nations ruled by cruel dictators and monarchs.

We plunder poorer nations and steal their resources.

We exploit vulnerable immigrants.

We even employ slave labor.

But we ignore all of this and congratulate ourselves on our superior enlightenment.

No wonder.....
