> We shouldn't do business with a country that steals, doesn't play fair, is the embodiment of 1984, and above all, commits genocide. I do not understand how you can say this about China? [1] > I think the future posed by Communist China is nightmare fuel and has the potential to eclipse the future we are trying to build Seriously? [2] [1] [LINK] [2] [VIDEO]
i hear what you're saying but i've spent too much time in the Middle East to know that most reporting in the west is intentionally deeply Islamophobic; mostly to manufacture consent for imperialist wars that allow the global north propertied/capitalist class to plunder and dominate. [LINK] [VIDEO]
I think to an extent Trump is a fall guy, even when it comes to Venezuela he was dragged through the mud where his predecessors have constantly undermined the sovereignty of other nations and attacked them under the guise of protecting the US from terrorism when it was about oil and mineral ritches [1], the same with the deportation centers which while they were getting some criticism it was nowhere near the level of slander that there is towards the current admin doing the same thing.
