France and the rest of Western Europe became famously overrun with communists and fundamentalists after WW2 and remain third world hellholes to this day

Four of the top ten largest economies in the world are in western Europe. How are France, Germany, and the UK comparable to third world hellholes?

Does my comment really read as not sarcastic to you?

It did not.

I didn't downvote your comment but it looks like I wasn't the only one that missed the sarcasm.
