We produce enough food to feed 10 billion people, but over two billion go hungry. The US (4.25% of the world's population) is responsible for 40% of total excess C02 emissions; the EU for another 29%. Imperialism, not humanity, is the problem.

Since the photo of Queen Elizabeth visiting her crown colony of Hong Kong in 1975 is making the round, it’s perfect time to remind people Britain forcibly made Hong Kong its colony as result of waging a war to sell Opium to China. A 🧵
