Maybe don't present a problem as "American" when the problem is global? The problem is not so much that America manufactures poverty as much as that the consumerist(/capitalist) economic system the majority of the world depends on manufactures poverty. The article is just listing out American symptoms of a global disease.

I’m still not following here.
If somebody were to post their personal experience with chlamydia would you reply with be “It’s a hot take to not mention the very serious problem that chlamydia poses to koala bears. When I read about something happening somewhere, I assume that that means it isn’t happening elsewhere.”
A hot take is defined as "a quickly produced, strongly worded, and often deliberately provocative or sensational opinion or reaction (as in response to current news)"
So you can't really do a hot take on a personal experience. Because a personal experience generally isn't "hot". You'd just be an a-hole. You might be able to have a hot take specifically about chlamydia in koalas though... ouch. Lets try...
"Koala bears keep dying because they cant keep it in their pants"
See the difference?
