      Yeah, that only works for people who are brainwashed to follow whatever the current regime is pushing regardless of how much it hurts them personally, but especially if it doesn’t hurt them directly in the very short term.

    But complaining that this year there is no tourism in the US

    Repeating history in a creepy way. only changing names: Miller instead Goebbels, ICE instead of SS …

      I’m gonna be crucified for this take but I do think that should be the one thing kept at customs and border control.

      So many instances of ecological terrorism because somebody thought it’d be cute to bring an invasive species to a different country

    thats “operation brother sam” and “operation big stick”. or “monroe doctrine” nowadays (1980s+) i think? the us’s role in it is severely understated in the article so keep that in mind. mostly so usians can get fat off our food while we starve.

    the movie is good, and id recommend it, but favelados still live that reality to this day and the burgeoise-funded movie aint showing the actual reality and terror of it.
