Just wait until Trump starts a trade war with your country.

The fact that a plurality of voters actively chose Donald Trump, again, tells you just how badly the Democrats have failed the People.

You can't just explain it away. The income inequality is worse now than it has ever been. People are willing to try Anything different. Even if it is objectively bad for themselves. Status quo doesn't cut it anymore.

If I ever wanted to ruin a megacorporation for ruining my life, I'd start going after the lowest wrung of the ladder. Give two warnings and then execute the plan on them. Non-fatal accidents and the like. Warn again. Move on to the next one. Warn them etc. Repeat as long as necessary. Never go for the higher ups that can afford security.

This will probably never happen to me, because I don't live in the late stage capitalist hell-scape.

By that logic we should be happy gazing at our own navels, shouting to the void, looking at empty pages.

They should be given. No questions asked. It'll be cheaper than rebuilding the Ukrainian infrastructure over and over again.

You can't trust it even if the package exists.

Racial discrimination is fundamentally created by the innate fear of the Other. But it is supercharged by capitalism. Slave trade was created to create cheap expendable labor force to drive profits. When it was ended segregation and other discriminatory practices were instituted to protect the owners of businesses. These practices were systemic and we are still seeing their results.

You could argue that what the US did when they were all for free trade was bad. Using debt traps to impoverish third world countries. Imposing policies that were and are detrimental on weaker nations. Now that China is doing the same with belt and road it is suddenly evil. The only thing that has changed is who is benefiting.

Like they didn't Mike Pence?

Ambos son parte del mismo problema.
