The only thing that makes capitalism “great” for a minority of people is their imperialist exploitation of the rest of the world. Contrast with how every single capitalist country in the global south constantly fails to care for the most basic needs of its population.
This fool also said NATO should go global and arm Taiwan like it armed Ukraine.
Not only will her pointless statements cause diplomatic retaliation but the delusion on display is amazing. NATO despite having 20 times the military budget of Russia hasn’t been able to turn around its proxy war against a force that stands for under 10% of Russia’s military strength.
I think it’s impossible for a highly unequal society to avoid the problems of discrimination and prejudice against minority groups. For this to change the material conditions of the Chinese must improve (as I’m sure they will).
US liberals (which somehow have managed to become orders of magnitude more toxic than their carbon copies around the world) have done more damage to their image with their meltdown over this move than anything Musk could have achieved on his own.
Despite all the propaganda Ukrainian soldiers aren’t up to the task of fighting this war or any other. They’ve been performing terribly for 8 years now.
I feel sorry for them.
The green movement worldwide is completely compromised to serve the agenda of economic elites. In many cases their work actually increases the dependence on hydrocarbons (anti-nuclear movement, also there is a strong astroturf movement against power dams in the developing world). Politically they are married to liberalism’s worst excesses (imperialism and censorship of dissenting ideologies). It’s a total shitshow.
Yeah I’m not sure if attempting to cancel leftists like this is the way to go. Unless you’re certain they’re hellbent on a socially reactionary agenda you could just reach out to them, express your critiques and try to sway their stance on this issue. More often than not educated leftists are open to questioning the patriarchy even if they haven’t overcome that hurdle.
And keep in mind you will come across a LOT of working-class socially reactionary leftists in any movement that grows big enough to actually be able to take power. You have to try to change their views working in a top-down approach.
I know, right! Imagine living in an oppressive country with the largest prison population of the world and where having the wrong skin color basically is a free ticket to constantly being harassed by the judiciary system your entire life!
Oh, wait…
