Blaming China for coronavirus is like blaming the Gulf of Mexico for Hurricane Katrina. You could blame the Gulf or climate chaos; better to blame The Corps of Engineers for poor preparation and FEMA for poor response.
@SkyNews@Mollie_Malone1 Are Zionists being attacked or just generic 'Jews'? The Zionist State of Israel conflates Judaism and Zionism, so a person angered by the Gaza Genocide can easily be confused.
@AkademiskC@libertadorzn Kit Klarenberg wrote an excellent article how Greta was a liberal darling until she turned anti-capitalist and anti-colonialist. So, it is OK to protest lack of climate change action, but to protest lack of civility, wisdom, and intelligence is evidently shameful.
Attacks on birthright citizenship and mass deportation policy are thinly-veiled racism. The erosion of our constitutional and human rights is appalling. Tell your congressional representatives to speak out, protect the people, and defend our Constitution. https://t.co/nAoSBtnLqP
@aaronjmate Aaron, the term is 'CPC', standing for the Communist Party of China, not 'CCP' which stands for nothing. Written in Cyrillic script, the USSR is CCCP, which is why rightwing idiots use CCP for China's Party. Don't be a rightwing idiot, please!
Say, CPC, CPC, CPC!
@YanLian31677392 Great discussion, but there is one insidious aspect of the dollar, which is US overseas spending on the military and political meddling (regime change, etc). This spending is effectively an import even though it is empty of benefits. (Michael Hudson in SUPERIMPERIALISM).
@eidelweiss58@MalofeevKV@jacksonhinkle That is precisely what Stalin did, build foundation for world peace, but one without colonialism and crass exploitation. It was the Americans who chose aggression and war.
@normansolomon In a Sheerpost article you wrote: "While Russia’s invasion and horrible war in Ukraine should be condemned…" & I have to ask you why you think so. The alternative would have been a Ukrainian conquest of the Donbas, likely genocidal, and nukes on Russia's border.

Aaron, most Palestinians are not Arabs. They speak Arabic and have some Arabic cultural trappings, but they are mostly people of the Levant.
