Cocoa prices are now ONE QUARTER of their recent peak.

Has anyone seen a bar of chocolate fall in price by even 1p??

You have been taught to hate socialism/communism by the same people who have told you to love and respect what are now known to be rapists and pedophiles.

Oh man, the pizzagate people totally got it right! Other than the location, people involved, methods, communication channels, victims, timelines or any verifiable details whatsoever. People were laughing at them back then, but who's laughing now? Literally everyone, dorks.

biden and kamala protected the epstein files and I never want to hear a fucking word glorifying them ever again

[Coffeezilla @coffeebreak_YT]

Crazy that in the rest of the world the Epstein files are actually having consequences but in America nobody seems to be affected.

America is so right wing they try to pretend this guy is on the left side of the political spectrum.

[Jared Cook @jkimballcook]

I'm sympathetic to the idea that somebody shouting "gun!" in the middle of a scuffle would cause panic. But if the rule is that shouting "gun!" makes deadly force justified, all you've done is created an incentive for bad officers to shout "gun!" when they want to kill someone.

Marimar Martinez was the first US citizen shot by ICE.

They claimed she was a terrorist. Said she was brandishing a weapon.

They lied. Video footage exonerated her and showed the ICE agent shot her five times.

He bragged to other agents “five shots, 7 holes”

This, from @DavidAFrench: “One of the saddest things about the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti is that you could tell that neither of them seemed to know the danger until it was too late. They believed they were operating in some version of the normal state . . . where the police usually respond with discipline and restraint.” https://t.co/RHbvZJIdmv

[Tom Martell @tommartell]

Lost in the background of the horrific murder of Alex Pretti is that an ICE agent walked up to a woman who was actively backing away from him and shoved her with two hands, sending her sprawling backwards onto an icy sidewalk. He then tries to pepper spray her while she is prone on the ground.

There is no justification for this physical violence against her. She isn't resisting arrest and she isn't threatening the agent. He crossed the street to physically attack her.

This is not normal. This is not ok. Law enforcement cannot physically assault citizens on the street. Any police officer who did this would lose their job.

We've seen countless examples of ICE initiating physical violence with no justification. This cannot be normalized.

The historic speech given by Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney at the World Economic Forum in Davos has gotten a lot of attention, but many people are overlooking the most revealing admission he made, which exposes the blatant hypocrisy of Western imperialism.

It is perhaps understandable that most observers are focusing on Carney's response to Donald Trump's threats and his announcement that Canada will "fundamentally shift our strategic posture" and "diversify" away from the US. This is significant and historic.

Nevertheless, an even more important part of the speech was when Canada's prime minister admitted that the so-called "rules-based international order" was always deeply hypocritical and biased, serving the interests of the imperialist West.

He said, "We knew the story of the international rules-based order was partially false, that the strongest would exempt themselves when convenient, that trade rules were enforced asymmetrically. And we knew that international law applied with varying rigour depending on the identity of the accused or the victim".

"This fiction was useful" for Western imperialist countries, Carney added. Which is why, "We participated in the rituals, and we largely avoided calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality".

However, "This bargain no longer works", he stressed.

In other words, Carney was admitting that Western "middle powers" (like Canada or European countries) willingly went along with US hegemony and supported the US-led imperialist system -- which is predicated on the systematic subjugation and exploitation of Global South countries in the periphery -- because these Western middle powers also benefited from this pillage of the Global South.

But now that the US empire has turned against these Western imperialist middle powers that it previously called its "allies", and now that they are getting just a glimpse of what it feels like to be on the receiving end of what they have been doing to the Global South for centuries, they are (ostensibly) turning against the exploitative system that they had helped to sustain for so long.

They supported imperialism as long as it benefited them. Now that it doesn't, they pretend to be acting in a principled way, supposedly to uphold international law and defend sovereignty. But Canada's prime minister has publicly acknowledged that they never truly cared about that. It was just the public relations narrative.
