Judge it however you like, personally, I stand firmly with a company that treats its customers with this much sincerity. Long live Akagi Nyugyo!! #赤城乳業

Japanese ice cream maker Akagi Nyugyo aired a one-minute ad apologizing for raising its famous ice pops’ price from 60 to 70 yen the first increase in 25 years.

There were no actors, the video featured the chairman and company officers.

🇻🇪🇺🇸🇺🇳 Jeffrey Sachs just said the quiet part out loud at the UN:
If the UN Charter no longer restrains Washington, then the world is already back to jungle logic, only with nuclear weapons.
Only decorative if one country refuses to be bound by International law.

This is the final stage of imperial madness; the more desperate it becomes, the more it wants to bury more people with the remaining myth of "leadership".

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

In light of the recent abduction of Venezuela's Maduro, the warnings of former leaders - from Chavez to Gaddafi - take on an urgent meaning.

While the US cites democracy, security as a motive, these leaders argued the true objective is political domination and resource control.

[COMBATE |🇵🇷 @upholdreality]

"I have never seen the US government arrive in a desert to plant life. They always arrive to destroy."

Venezuela's Acting President Delcy Rodríguez gave a master class on US sanctions policy in 2024

She connected it directly to Palestine: "The genocide against Palestine is an extension of the same policy—the destruction of humanity, exterminating peoples so that speculative capital survives."

What she said:

🔹 The US controls SWIFT, the international financial messaging system. Every global transaction flows through it. One button excludes any country.

🔹The hegemon uses unilateral coercive measures, so-called 'sanctions', as a means of extortion against countries that do not obey its instructions.

🔹26,000+ unilateral sanctions exist worldwide. 31 countries sanctioned—representing 28% of world population and 72% of Earth's territory.

🔹96% of sanctions are concentrated on 10 countries. Mostly oil and energy producers essential for the development of humanity.

🔹Venezuela lost access to 77% of its international correspondent banks "in one second"

🔹99% drop in national income. $232 billion in lost oil production. $700 billion total economic damage—comparable to WWII bombing of Germany and France.

🔹US State Department stated, 2018: "Our sanctions forced Venezuela to default... We are seeing total collapse. Our policy works."

🔹Citgo seized. $22 billion in assets frozen. Venezuelan gold stolen by Bank of England "because we don't know who the government is"

🔹The US-appointed "president" of Venezuela's Central Bank lives in Miami and runs a hamburger business. This is who they claimed should control Venezuela's gold reserves.

"International law does not govern. The only thing that governs is barbarism."

This Chinese man doesn’t hold back ,and he is so right.
The US neoliberal elite and corporate vultures are so consumed by greed that they’ve rotted the system from within.
Their obsession with profit has gutted integrity, wrecked stability, and now the fallout is hitting hard.

[tekitez @tekitez]

Exactly! Can’t agree more. Calling the U.S. “America” isn’t fair, since many other countries share the continent. In recent years, the U.S. has faced negative perceptions worldwide, and sadly that image rubs off on the rest of the Americas.

What a bunch of lies, let's learn from history exactly how it happened. After the Japanese semiconductor makers started out competing US. the US government kept changing the rules and kneecapped Japanese companies.
Then in the early 1980s the US made...🧵

Can economic sanctions stop Asia? Much more than just copying.

Another problem the West cannot resolve regarding the loss of hegemony is related to the market.
Even if the United States and Europe impose sanctions on Chinese products, the rising Asian market absorbs this demand.
South and Southeast Asia are a market of 2.6 billion people, growing at over 6% annually, while Europe grows at less than 1% and the rest of the West at less than 1.5%.

The Chinese have the quality, price, and logistics to strengthen their presence in the Asian market, keeping their growth.

In a previous discussion, I mentioned China's superiority in radar technology; but the main point is that China's advantage in some technologies is sustainable due to investments in quality research, but primarily because of discipline, planning and economic growth.

Speaking of China, trade between Beijing and Latin America is expected to surpass Chinese-European trade within 8-9 years.

Restrictions on the export of rare earth elements are another factor fueling China's growth compared to the rest of the world. It is estimated that China controls 70% of the rare earth market.
The lack of these minerals hampers the West in key technological sectors.

There are no sanctions capable of holding back Asia. This is the century of Asia and it specially includes the entire south and Southeast Asia, not only China.

The Chinese have learned from Western industry, no doubt, but today they invest in their own research and are already followed by other Asian countries.
In the military field, they are advancing rapidly, but they still have sectors that are inferior compared to the West and Russia.

My perception is that only a large war in Asia could change the course of this century.

There’s another factor: as Asia continues to grow rapidly, it forms direct relationships with commodity exporters in Latin America and Africa, creating political proximity. Australia is in the same boat.

What can the West do? Change its mindset and start investing in infrastructure.
The Chinese are building nearly 2,400 km of high-speed rail in other countries, not to mention dozens of ports and airports.

The West needs to invest, join this race, and regain its influence, where the entire world stands to gain.

Accepting the idea that the West is no longer the center of the universe is a good starting point. Let alone the political crisis.
