God they're so talented 🥲 I love cats

God willing! I just don't know if it can happen with the neoliberal system straining due to third world development.

Okay dude have fun voting for people who support torture and genocide.

I'm afraid I'm afflicted with something called a conscience unlike Liz and her husband.

You mean when a Canadian company recommended that Sri Lanka should sell hambatotan as part of debt renegotiations, that was more significant than the IMF impoverishing the entire country? Did you think they took the port back to China? While China is responsible for 10% of the debt and 63% of the debt forgiveness in the country?

Do you do anything other than repeat Wall Street news? Vulture funds made huge risky investments to Sri Lanka they knew could not be repaid and used the international law system - the US run mafia - to threaten them into paying off debts that should have been forgiven.

Taking more control over assets in countries being stripped by the Western vulture capitalists is a good thing. That's why China has lots of under the table agreements to recoup losses on or take control of assets if the IMF does this shit or if there's a regime change now. Risk is a real thing, debts are not sacred, I understand that's out of your depth as your understanding of finance is limited to what your masters tell you.

The alternative is simply threatening people to pay up, the Wall Street way.

Oh yeah I was bringing it up again since some nerds are hovering over everything I post and I consider that an opportunity for remedial lessons.

A chatroom I have made many times is "Old News" and I think it might be a nice community addition. I wouldn't moderate it though, too many arguments!

"Oh no what if the Russians don't build it!"

Yeah extremely valid and not hysterical concern there man.

You're going to have to deal with the Russians building more nuclear infrastructure than you get in your neoliberal shithole, in peripheral countries alone, because ROSATOM is just getting bigger.

Chatham House is literally the go-to place for ways to cope with Russia constantly getting stronger instead of collapsing.

Shut the fuck up nerd! You like old racist comedies from the 2000s because you're the target audience: STUPID, RACIST, and OLD.

Listen "friend", your reality is based purely on sources from the Western financial class. So much so that you're not even aware of the neocolonialist financial pressure they placed on Sri Lanka to begin with. It's just China China China, because you only look at what you're told to look at. Because you're a well-trained little pig dog, aren't you? Who's a good boy??

Yeah I totally agree, I just find these reformist alt-media types to be useful because we can harness their ridiculous energy for law and finance and other difficult to navigate semi-bullshit fields

I will post a lot of stuff even from corny Liz Warren supporter-level breakdowns of corruption just because they are so obsessed. Even if they ultimately have no plan to deal with it.

Yeah pretty much, they completely destroyed the facade of a left coalition with that move.

Yeah they're pretty cool for the alt media sphere, like Prospect and orhers they're a bit unrealistic about reform, but I take any investigative journalism we can get these days

Yes considering how open most people are to device-based security paranoia you would think the fact they could have done this to westerners and blamed a terrorist organization wouldn't sit well with people. Is it only nuclear war and hacking people are trained to fear?

Says the redditor begging me to take Washington think tanks seriously because learning something new scares him.

Lol just yesterday I was joking about how liberals would be panicking when Rosatom provides nuclear energy to African countries. Central Asia seems like the antecedent to that. You realize Europe already gets a huge portion of its uranium from Russia? What, peripheral countries in Asia aren't allowed to get nuclear energy but Europe can?

The reactors do in fact get built https://rosatom.ru/en/press-centre/news/main-construction-phase-for-unit-3-of-el-dabaa-nuclear-power-plant-commences-in-egypt/ Russia doing far more work to develop the world than Western countries, which had a significant head start.

This article has literally no basis for this other than "Western critics blame the president for being too leftist and Chinese" and it's a pro-western Taiwanese source that simply parrots AP/AFP

Are you serious rn?

Look at this coping Hasbara who can't even read

Bombing Iran is certainly a unifying objective for imperialists. Those mountains will break the whole western world. You're living through it.
