austin powers was so fucked for doing this
Heard an interview on NPR of a 'small mother-daughter hair accessories company, working from the dining room table at home...' thats business will be affected by the tariffs because 'we manufacture in China!'!!! And if one good thing comes of these horrible stupid tariffs I hope it stops all these American 'small business owners 🥺' from obfuscating their participation in imperial exploration. And I hope everyone finally processes that all the fanart acrylic keychains and plushies of niche microcelebrities ocs that are just 'supporting small artists!!' are manufactured in the same way everything else is thats consumed by this ugly country is.

some of you care about dunking on individual zionists more than a) challenging Zionism as the violent colonial terrorism it is and b) more than supporting Palestinians. People like Trump, Gal Gadot, Scarlett Johansson, Amy Schumer, Jamie Lee Curtis, and whoever the fuck else - their Zionism isn't just an excuse to call them losers. It's a form of terrorism they're lending their social and political capital to in order to legitimise and further enact that terrorism. Moreover, calling Gal Gadot a shit actor (while incredibly true and accurate) and calling it a day isn't anti-Zionist enough. Support Palestinians, uplift Palestinians as much as you shit on Zionists otherwise what's the point. Speaking of which here is a GoFundMe campaign supporting over 80 Palestinian families in Gaza and the West Bank that still hasn't reached its goal. Support Palestinian art, film, academia, etc too. Read Mohammed El Kurd's latest book, Perfect Victims. In light of the testimony from survivors of the IOF's latest massacre Palestinian paramedics, remember Zionism isn't just something that gives you an excuse to call out celebrities. Zionism is terrorism. Zionism is genocide. May we see and and keep fighting for a free Palestine in our lifetimes.
im just glad theres no strong as fuck ice mummy tuesday ill tell you that much
canbt stop crying. thats what i woulda did
It seems that your cheap phones are not a god given right but actually a luxury sustained by imperialist inequality after all. Mirá vos.
It's imperialism to take advantage of trade now?
Comparative advantage is racist?
What happened to "diversity is our strength"?
Yes, taking advantage of poor nations to produce luxury goods is the very definition of imperialism.
Small or less developed nations participating in mutually beneficial trade is not imperialism by any reasonable definition.
When America stops buying stuff from the world, even if its for luxury goods, the whole world economy suffers for it.
Well, see, mutually beneficial. You get your luxury goods, and the third world gets starvation wages, exploitation, environmental destruction, and brutal political, economical and military interventions to keep the explotation going.
Mutually beneficial indeed.

yes we are gonna get a better standard of living and yes we are going to explore the stars under communism, Yuri fucking Gagarin didn't become the first man in space for people to say this doomer shit.
There is a difference between a good standard of living and overconsumption. Access to the internet is great, as it is an important tool. A new phone model every year? Not so much. Access to good transportation is vital for a good quality of life. Does every single person need a personal car when there's good public transport? Probably not.
We don't need to live like fucking medieval peasants, but the system of exploitation and imperialism cannot continue either. Once the superflueties of overconsumption and the accumulation of capital are done with, imagine what would be a world with all the resources destined to social justice yes, but also art, culture, sport, science, and yes, space exploration. Because once again, Yuri Gagarin, the son of a carpenter and a milkmaid, didn't become the first man in space for people to say this shit.
this is horrible
