So it's okay for me to rob you because someone else was robbed by a thief?

A person needn't be good in order to do good things, just as a good person doesn't necessarily impact the world positively simply by existing.
Nearly 2% of all Japanese people live in Brazil, for instance, so yeah.
Progressivism has no inherent need to be all-encompassing. In fact, keeping certain groups *cough conservatives cough* not included is an essential part of successful progressivism.
Congratulations proving their point.
The sensible solution is dismantling corporations and getting rid of billionaires, whether by sword or by hammer. Senseless infighting and bothside-ism is the realm of useful idiots and ill-intentioned manipulators.

The implosion of Argentina is a very complex issue, but, essentially, the country allowed itself to be informally dollarized and ceded control over most of its industries to international (read corporativist) interests. When Perón restructured the country, it was done with a limited scope and with relatively short term changes, causing their economy to collapse again later (it doesn't help that Brazil, a powerful potential ally, had undergone a rightwing U.S.-backed coup at the time). Then, the whole Falklands/Malvinas war happened, all rightwing bullshit, and the country still hasn't bounced back.
Who could've guessed that a rightwing government wouldn't solve their issues (which were originally caused by rightwing policies)?
That's actually me removing semicolons from Python.
