Im not hating on successful people
But no one in Guyana 🇬🇾 is successful through “hard work” No one is all drugs, money laundering, and more corruption.
From the President/vice president to the police they're all corrupted.

That’s not a case for reactionary revanchism, Guyana is an independent country and should not be punished for the acts of its former colonial master, just as Venezuela shouldn’t be punished for Spanish crimes. In no universe am I going to support Venezuela trying to walk off with 2/3rds of Guyana’s land based on colonial era beef, and reduce this country to a tiny sliver. That’s simply wrong. If the Venezuelan people have the right to self determination and sovereignty, so does Guyana.
The indigenous peoples of the #Essequibo said THEY historically and presently occupy the lands, and they will side with the Guyanese! Reaffirming Essequibo is, and will always belong to #Guyana.
Self-identifying leftists, Marxists and "anti-imperialists" are the ones who are most idiotic on this front.
Saw one Guyanese woman, now a Dr and Assistant Professor in York, Canada, putting forward this exact argument. She has blocked me now, as she didn't like my criticism.
Some of the hot takes from Guyanese so-called "academics" are absolutely WILD!
Talk about victim blaming and betraying your country!
Apparently, if #Venezuela did invade, it would all be the USA's fault!

It’s not an exaggeration to suggest that the fate of nations and a sizable portion of humanity depends on whether William Nordhaus’s projections are correct.
And a growing number of his colleagues are repudiating his work. https://t.co/uIlzbLQZKT
Fairly certain now that, as a result of Earth's growing energy imbalance, we will have breached the planetary boundary of 1.5°C by the end of 2024. What a collective failure of the human enterprise that it can't even maintain its own home planet!
Sept. 2023 was the hottest September in NASA’s temperature record, GISTEMP, following monthly records in June, July, and August.
September was also the largest temperature anomaly on record and continued a long-term warming trend due to human activities. https://t.co/kr7jJ7Ztbt
NATURE IS DWINDLING: A diverse set of mammals once roamed the planet. This changed dramatically with the arrival of humans. Since then, wild land mammal biomass has declined by ~ 85%. Humans & their livestock are now dominant.
