    It’s not racism, nor is it nationalism. I live in America, it fucking sucks here and I’d like to leave. But it’s still better than North Korea by leaps and bounds, and I would choose to be born here again if those were the only choices. Same with Russia, same with China.

    Are you really trying to defend the living conditions in a country like North Korea? It’s not racist to say it sucks there, that’s just a fact.

      In that line of thinking: what does the comic say if ‘Russia’ is exchanged for ‘North Korea’? Is the point of the comic just to flatly express that one nation state sucks in comparison? If so, that’s kind of a shitty sentiment–and dare I say nationalistic.
