What the hell do they think is going to happen to one billion Chinese if the CPC is replaced with a capitalist ruling class?
These same people will celebrate invading countries in the global South to ‘liberate’ them, and then not care that our military decimated their country and we placed sanctions on them so now they’re starving to death.
After the end of the Afghan occupation, there were sanctions on Afghanistan but apparently through some Asian developed system, people were able to donate funds to Afghanistan to prevent famine. The same people crying about the fate of the Afghan people under the Taliban couldn’t give a damn about the Afghan people starving to death.
Then you have ghouls like Giuliani celebrating that people are starving and being forced to sell their organs in Iran because it was evidence that sanctions were working, and people were cheering
The tweet above, while probably meant in jest, is horrifyingly apropos
With the US forces withdrawing from Afghanistan a few events stick out to me. Missile-striking a man and IIRC his children because he was doing door to door deliveries of meals or water to people who needed aid. The attack at the Kabul airport that killed I think north of a hundred people, but all Western media talked about was ThE tHiRtEeN as they wanted to wave the bloody shirt over the service members that were killed. That also may have involved occupation forces firing into the crowd, which they definitely would want to cover up.
I remember our media class going after Brandon for pulling out, but hey!, this was already negotiated, set up under Trump 1st term, and it’s good to end a 20 year occupation! Plus the ANA was collapsing and Taliban rapidly advancing territory so what even could the US and Afghan govt have done. And yeah sanctioning Afghanistan after the withdrawal is just damning people to starve.
