Whenever the Europeans/US have gone to war (sometimes wars of extermination) against black/brown people, they've called it “police action”. Since the Hague convention in fact. That is why the Hague banned the use of Dum Dum bullets in wars against the “civilised” but not against Asians and Africans.

“If a woman dares to show herself in public in any way, then she can and will be sexually harassed with the aid of genAI-driven tools that can easily turn her face into highly realistic pornography” is an absolute red-alarm human rights disaster

Why there's no hegemon in MENA and there's definitely not one in Latin America. Yes the US has, can, and likely will continue to impose its will via brute force but it is a testament to the degrading buy-in that the Americans have become so erratic and brazen.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

40 people (at least) died. It's the official policy of these newsrooms that Latin American lives aren't worth anything. Again, if you still pay for an NYT subscription I think you're trash.

You ever think about how the Roman Senate kept meeting centuries into the reigns of emperors. Hanging out, shooting the shit, giving speeches, and play-acting that their positions of privilege remained positions of power.

it's not even the usual unity for war when under threat, americans* just love war. they love beating people up and asserting dominance, enamoured with their weapons and propaganda. they love to rally behind the flag as an instrument of vulgar power. *you know which kind I mean

The Canadian government celebrates the US committing the crime of aggression against Venezuela, in violation of international law and the UN Charter, even as it calls for respect for international law. I’m not surprised: Carney took a similar approach when the US illegally attacked Iran last year.

VP Delcy Rodriguez, whom Trump indicated earlier today was collaborating with the US government, is live on television right now. Earlier reports that she's in Russia are false. She's in Caracas with the rest of the cabinet. Rodriguez: "We will never again be a colony for any empire"

We orchestrated the overthrow of a democratically elected Guatemalan president in 1954. The result was a 36 year-long civil war, hundreds of thousands of deaths and disappearances, and genocide against the indigenous population.
