Breaking my twitter silence to say that seeing europeans sweating their ass off in these while hiking the great wall was almost as embarassing as watching a dude try to fit his novelty cone straw hat through the beijing airport security.

I helped raise enough resources to send 2 solar farms to Cuba that'll supply a small neighborhood with power for the next 20 years.

Last night Martin was released from a detention center in Michigan. He was in the concentration camp for almost 3months. I drove him to Chicago where his pregnant wife was waiting for him. She is due February 12th. He has no criminal record and was working when ice kidnapped him.

Sanctions are nothing but economic terrorism. Invisibilized violence. 25% of humanity is under US sanctions. 54 countries. 2 billion people. This is what the Empire excels in; subjugation through scarcity and denial; creating the conditions to stifle and break collective will power until that country accepts America's mandate.

The Lancet recent published a study which found that sanctions from western countries, namely the US, have caused 38 million deaths since 1970.

The average death toll ranges from 400,000 to over 1 million per year.

The American Empire repeatedly uses the same ploy across the Global South: It manufactures the crises and then positions itself as the sole savior who cares about wellbeing of the people there and must save them.

They target and stifle a country through embargoes, sanctions, coordinated political instability and propaganda campaigns, if not covert military means. Then point to the resulting suffering and devastation it causes as a reason to justify regime change; towards installing one that's more accommodating to their own agenda. Dressing it up in the language and theatrics of human rights.

The narrative they run always makes it seem like sanctions or bombing these countries is solely about targeting/ harming a Saddam or Castro or Assad— these singular evil individuals, and so it's justified.

They'll never mention or outright say they're targeting Iraqis or Cubans or Syrians; the actual citizenry of those countries who bare the brunt of that economic and imperialist violence. It is the people who always suffer either way.

Ask me in 8 years how people are living in Venezuela and whether they can eat this supposed *democracy*.

The most loving thing you can as a cat-owner is to show them affection in the same way they do to you, by daily assaulting their dignity and annoying them whenever it strikes your fancy.
