Is Israel, like, feeding a steady stream of adolescent boys to Graham or something?
Is this the Al Qaeda guy?
Life lesson: never, ever presume that the United States will keep its word, abide by an agreement or be consistent about anything.
Yes, of course. A larger point that I’ve tried to make is that when China interferes with the market, they do it in a way that improves Chinese products, lowers prices for consumers. Conversely, when the US interferes with the market they increase prices, reduce consumer options, and reduces the quality of products.
If all that is true, then the US should subsidize US ev’s to the point where they are price competitive and open the market to competition where US manufacturers can market against the environmental and human right issues with their Chinese competitors. That would put competitive pressure on Chinese manufacturers to clean up their supply chains and consumers worldwide would benefit.
There is no incentive for US companies to improve their products when they are protected from market forces by import restrictions.
“One soldier told his mother in his final call home that his unit would be going “boots on the ground” that night, and that his commander said the operation was meant to bring about the Second Coming of Christ.”
I hope so. Just let us know where they’ll be flying the flag draped coffins in so we can go spit on them.
Enshitification is the major theme of the modern capitalist economy. You can see this process increasingly soaking through many technologies, services, and systems that populate our daily lives. With any luck, we are now seeing it manifest in the US’s corporate military infrastructure. Hopefully the rest of the world, both the allies we are grifting, and the enemies we are scapegoating, will increasingly realize how hollow a nation we really are. As they distance themselves from us, and challenge us economically and militarily, the collapse of this facade will accelerate.
I’ll take 4999 body bags and one survivor that the rest of us can ridicule. Fuck the Marines, every single one of them.
