somehow it seems to be only youtube, xcancel and lemmy…

are american ships going to start hauling isreali freight?

The erosion we are creating to our countries’ institutions is spiraling out of control and parties like AfD, Reform UK, etc are not the cause, but the symptoms of disfranchising large amounts of people from many years on the making…

very true and afd and reform exist to take advantage of it for their own goals like maga does and those goals include the same style ban-happy-parties just like liberals like to engage in.

democrats & maga, cdu & afd, labor & reform are two sides of the same capitalist coins that ensures that the disenfranchisement will continue to take place matter what and their adherents are too busy fighting their respective culture to wars to realize that they’ve been manipulated into doing so to prevent them from fighting the class war.

is this the same police state that’s labeling pro-palestinians as anti-semitic terrorists?

The Europeans believe that rewarding Russian aggression in Ukraine would make it much more likely that Putin will attack the rest of Europe…

the largest & most recent imperialists in the world are pointing the imperialism finger at a country that hasn’t done serious imperialism since they overthrew their ruling class; i guess every accusation is just projection.

the title seems to say the opposite of the content of the article; they’re going to re-review it, without expanding upon why and citing a technicality that has the potential to reverse the warrants given the new makeup of the court.

are people going to continue to insist of “rules based order” once the icc revokes the arrest warrant in a clear case of genocide because of a technicality?

i used to struggle to understand why americans refused to see that the ukrainian far right is so empowered until i came to lemmy and see the election results; now i understand that we’ve been punching left for so long that the the right seems reasonable.

the russians didn’t have as big a carrot and stick that the americans do.

What happens to brics when India caves?

brcs?

me too; i fully expected them to fold on decouping with china

i had been wondering why no one was prosecuting the soldiers and i’m glad to see it happening; but i also wonder if the icc will ever bother considering how they’ve been sanctioned over the netanyahu warrant.

The US will likely manage to carve up a sphere of influence for itself, but it’s quite clear that they’re overstretched already.

this part depresses me the most.

in the future: as brics nations work together towards ameliorating the effects of climate change to keep their populations fed, watered & sheltered, thus diminishing their capabilities; the g7 will continue to expand their already dominant financial and military control over the g20 & other vassal states through their access to abundant natural resources in canada, greenland, africa & the caucuses while continuing to further contribute to climate change in the process.

very true, but in what form?

this particular message feels a lot like latin american leftists and artistic people’s identification w their culturally indigenous roots as a means to eschew their western colonial influence and reject western capitalist dominance, but it ignores the reality that the indigeneity that exists today was reconstructed from western colonial sources because the original was so devastated that the few bits and pieces that survived had to be mashed together into this populist revival intended to bring life to an alternative counter culture that’s almost entirely divorced from its original origins.

ghost dance was the last time a populist revival like this was attempted and just like it happened in the last century, it’ll have a relatively brief resurgence and then diminish significantly in the face of the same western civilization that gobbled up its original incarnation, leaving the people who continue to adhere to it so abjectly impoverished and at risk that they’re naturally slowly attritioning into non-existence; especially so in the united states and canada.

i fully expected that the bullworks recently resurrected in places like mexico and uruguay to crumble before western capitalism & skullduggery; as it has happened several times in the last few centuries; and i hope that i’m only being pessimistic about china’s chances to stem this tide, but the fact that the eu; australia; a majority of latin america (that effectively counters brazil, economically); and the key players in africa are dropping their defenses to the trade war makes me think that history will continue to repeat itself.

please tell me i’m wrong and why. brics doesn’t seem to be an answer given how much some of its founding members are odds with each other today and will be more so in a climate changed future; nearly all of the other countries wishing to join today will be likewise greatly diminished in a climate changed future.

watching these people suffer on tiktok and rednote is heartbreaking; i keep doing the gaming algorithms like they ask me to, but it feels like i’m not doing anything like most people.

the 2-dollar-store has a nice ring to it. lol

does it matter after we hit 104% after tomorrow?

it’s crazy that it took a trade war with the world’s hegemon to spur to bolivians into action.

conditionally pulled; unless a tariff compromise were worked out.

i suspect that trump’s goal for these tariffs is concessions/insider-access

some part of me feels like the barely concealed racism is going to ensure that they go back into the american empire’s arms again once trump leaves office rather than sticking with china.
