@plaguespanics I do not think it is redundant as it highlights the clash between global powers and the actions in which these nations take to return or com into power with its effects on external forces causing detriment to ecosystems. This encourages nations to figure out ways to collaborate

@plaguespanics I found the reference to Pretty Woman very interesting as I never really thought about the meaning behind it that in depth.

@plaguespanics It is somewhat counterintuitive since I usually associate empires with rulers and monarchy however I do see how it can be categorized as one since it has extensive power supported by greed.

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics I have heard of it. Outsourcing makes it so wealthier countries and big corporations can take advantage of developing countries through cheap labor. This means areas of low wage workers have a difficult time coming out of that bubble of just being a place to outsource labor

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics I found the episode very helpful and interesting. The consequences of the fast fashion industry are shocking but are not surprising as capitalism and being eco-friendly don't go hand in hand. The rushed processes to make money make it hard to also be eco-friendly.

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics 1)if it weren't for the "Great War" would America have risen to such great power the way it did? 2) Why did Europe let America surpass them in power? (reminds of the saying 'the student becomes the master')

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics 1)is it possible for eco-friendly practices to coexist with capitalism? 2) If capitalism heavy relies on workers and laborers to function, why aren't they treated better?

They use fiber optic technology. ii) they are owned by corporations like Microsoft

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics 1) It supplements my understanding of how imperial powers tighten their grip on more power over other nations 2) also how developments in infrastructure meant more mobility in which resulted in the spread of diseases

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics Flores adds on to a pattern we see in history time and time again where immigrants are welcomed to do work no one else wishes to do but after the completion, they are tossed aside and there becomes a rise of xenophobia.

@plaguespanics 1. The canal was a US territory until 1999, which it was then handed over to the Panamanians to run. 2) I shocked by the amount of maintenance required for the canal

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics I have not which is probably due to the skewed Westernized perspective I have of history. Egypt was represented as inferior and the sacrificial lamb which is another example of how Eurocentrism plays a role in press and information we have nowadays. Who controls the canal now?

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics 1) whilst the other nations were benefiting Egypt did not benefit from the canal 2) the canal was made through a discussion between board of directors from different nations

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics One thing that struck me was that there was an emphasis on using a variety of transportation including traditional forms like camels. I would ask how wealth disparity plays a role in mobility.

[C123Sab @C123Sab]

@plaguespanics This was due to the fact that the Suez provided an alternative in which trade can be done more time and cost efficiently than going around the Cape of Good Hope even with the blockage.
