Reply to comment by circ_le_jerk_69 in China calls US debt trap accusation 'irresponsible' by BubsyFanboy

Lol you think rich people can't afford media campaigns? A couple of wealthy right wingers own Fox News and a group of related propaganda sites, explicitly founded with the goal of lying to the American public. To protect right wing politicians. And you think a guy who makes a billion dollars a year is somehow incapable of hiring a few people to post on Reddit?

Reply to China calls US debt trap accusation 'irresponsible' by BubsyFanboy

Yeah so basically it is okay for the US to do this to its working class, but when other countries do it to the US it’s like “woah woah woah” - the thing is, the working class don’t have a choice, they have to deal with increased cost of living and stagnant wages. The problem? Corporate greed.

Now, so far as US debt to China, they did have a choice. They didn’t have to outsource everything, they didn’t have to agree to all that stuff they agreed to, but they did, for short term gains, and long term fuck themselves over. The problem? Also corporate greed.

I agree 💯 with you, and i do regret the damages, especially like you said private Businesses, and also on politicians houses or offices (weirdly, also some of the opposing parties offices has been damaged).

Even for the public facilities it pains me (it's my money from taxes after all).

but then again, if there is no destruction, if you don't pretty much stop the country...nothing will be done, you can't vote against it because there's no referendum, you can't ask your deputy to vote against it because they are a bunch of kids with no intention on people well being, but more focused on sticking it to the other party, at the expense of others So there's no way really.....other than maximum disruption...

Reply to comment by Wundei in South Africa supports Russian initiative to create BRICS geological platform for data sharing by Falls_stuff

>African National Congress

basically the same as Indian National Congress. A lot of old parties are royally pissed off at current BJP govt for trying to distance India from Russia. As soon as BJP is ousted there will be major overhauls in EA to bring back the balance. Thankfully socialist wings of american media is very understanding and supportive of this. The reason is BJP is heavily pro towards neolib and conservative wings of USA and turning India into something that US can use the shoulders of to shoot at China, which in the longer turn is detrimental to India as it will be forced into conflicts with China and US has a track record of backstabbing their allies, so it's better for the future of India to not get into conflict with China or Russia and let the power of US war hawks dwindle instead. Modi is trying every propaganda to avoid this, but hopefully he will get kicked out in 2024 and we can distance ourselves from US to avoid war(doesn't have to be conventional).
