None of this is about targeting a single company. It’s about Lays suing a country for having e.g. government educational programs about healthy eating or about PhillipMorris suing a country having e.g. a government anti-smoking program.

The West will never forgive Haiti for freeing itself from slavery

Fucking neoliberalism. Any country that signed onto a free trade agreement with US agreed to allow corporations to sue their governments for the crime of hurting their profits, and those suits would be arbitration, not local courts, and the arbiters would be appointed by the global north fascist corprotocracy.

No, Democrats are sheep dogs and their role in the duopoly has become, in part, to support a few token concessions to the working class in order to stop them from organizing for socialism and unseating the duopoly.

Remember, FDR’s administration created the racial redlining framework and put anyone who looked vaguely Asian into concentration camps and stole their property. If we change the word Asian to Hispanic, we basically get a description of what Trump is doing.

Remember that every single Democrat since FDR has fought or overseen a fight against labor organizers, with the latest being Joe Biden deciding that train workers don’t deserve sick days.

The Democrats are not socialists because they support concessions for the express purpose of preventing a working class revolt. They are the good cop in a “good cop / bad cop” routine and anyone who still believes that the Ds can be trusted because they brought you a coffee and loosened your cuffs a little is a fool

So you’re literally saying “our team has to win even though it literally won’t matter at all in terms of anything regarding governance. The important thing about 2028 is that blue team gets +1”

Fucking hilarious

It all matters for 2028. Because in case you didn’t notice, every time a D has won the presidency, the same baby killing machine keeps on grinding along without any issues. Obama/Biden appointed Tom Homan to run DHS/ICE while they reorg’d it so it became possible to deploy into major urban areas. Obama deported 3M people. Trump made Homan his deportation czar in both terms, using the framework that Obama/Biden put in place for him. And Biden knew all of that and changed literally nothing about the policy structure of DHS/ICE while he was in office.

Bush2 admin selected a bunch of countries to topple. 2 of them were Libya and Syria. Obama/Clinton did Libya, and they devastated that place and now it hosts open-air slave markets. Biden/Harris finished did Syria, and the new president of Syria they put in place was a terrorist with a bounty on his head. He was literally decapitating people and Biden/Harris dropped the bounty and made him president of Syria.

Corporations make more profits under Democrats.

Racialized mass incarceration is bi-partisan.
Occupation of colonized lands is bi-partisan.
Mass murder through sanctions of over 800k people each year is bi-partisan.
Global war mongering is bi-partisan.
Ecocide is bi-partisan.
Protecting capitalism is bi-partisan.

This is not solved by voting. It’s not solved by primaries. It’s solved the same way women got the right to vote, the same way black people got civil rights protections, and the same way labor unions got weekends and sick days.

The root problem is American apathy.

No. The root problem is America. For its very short existence, the breakaway genocidal settler colony of the genocidal globe spanning European empire has been at war for all but a dozen years, and more than half of those were during the most brutal chattel slavery project on the planet and all of them were during the total genocide and erasure campaign against the native inhabitants of the land they occupy.

America is and always has been a white supremacist genocidal mass murdering war mongering misogynistic ChristoFascist European setter state and no amount of voting has ever changed that

Pyongyang relies on China for 95% of its legitimate trade

Hmmm. I wonder why?

Oohhhh. They’re killing the agents that worked in the Epstein ring. That makes way more sense
