I believe it was John Derbyshire who noted that whenever a totalitarian boot was smashing a human face, there would be a well heeled Western leftist to point out that the face at least had health care and a 100% literacy rate.
It’s basically the “made the trains run on time” argument. It’s not only fallacious, but grossly insulting in its trivial dismissal of bleak and continuous suffering.
