    I mean, trumpism is a good word for the neofascism fueled by social media of the 21st century. The fact that Netanyahu was doing that since way earlier doesn't invalidate it. The same way that people are more likely to know what a nazi is than a fascist. Branding, branding, branding

    Fun fact, chinese officials came to mexico to include them in the Belt and Road initiative, and the PRI government made a cheaper version of the infrastructure projects they were presented by the chinese, using their friends' construction companies and pocketing the difference, so they were told by the chinese to lose their number and to never ever call them back.

    I mean, if someone organised a simultaneous jam of the 5 most important waterways in the world, global trade would be instantly crippled. Panama, Suez, Bosphorus Strait, Strait of Malacca.

    As far as I understand Vizcarra (the couped president) was part of a different party than Congress majority. He dissolved Congress in 2019 and called for elections but his party didn't win majority. Now Congress majority leader made a call of no confidence, something you can do according to the Peruvian constitution, and it went through because his party has Congress majority. This is just a fight between bourgeois parties though. Another thing that is relevant is that through libertarian policies Peru had a 30% rate of self employment, a lot of which was app workers. The pandemic ravaged the gig economy, therefore Peruvian economy, so there was not much love for Vizcarra.


  • Instead of waiting for Dems to blame the left, we should blame the democratic party for considering black and Latinx voters a monolithic bloc, and not offering anything to us.

    Trump won FL because he targeted the Cuban, Venezuelan and Nicaraguan votes with anti-communist rethoric, and it worked because democrats only said "you need to vote blue because the other guy is bad" while not offering anything
