No degree of expertise on colonialism & colonial extraction will convince white folks/countries that they're huge beneficiaries of that plunder & of the systems they put in place & 'continue' to benefit from it.
Nevertheless, we must make the point & repeat it in the hope that the point gets across!
Julia Hartley-Brewer: Why is colonialism bad?

Me: “When Britain arrived in 1700s, India had 27% of global GDP. After 200 years of theft and millions starved to death, by 1947 India had 3% of global GDP, 90% living below the poverty line, a literacy rate of 17% and life expectancy of 27”

The Democratic Party should be rejected and dismantled and a workers party should rise in its place. We’ll never get out of this hellscape until the collaborationists are outrightly refused by the masses.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz called Maduro's capture "welcome news" but criticized Trump for "apparently failing to notify Congress beforehand".

This is the neoliberal position in a nutshell: Substantively fine with regime change and imperial power projection, just mad about process.
House Democrat calls Trump's Maduro capture 'welcome news' as left labels it 'illegal'
Most Democrats are blasting the Trump administration after the U.S. conducted an operation to capture Venezuela's leader, Nicolás Maduro.

The US-
Identifies an asset it wants
Can’t get said asset at price it wants
Backs rival political parties- doesn’t work
Starts funding rebel groups- doesn’t work but leads to clampdowns by government
Uses its networks of human rights orgs to point and yell dictator….

Not all troops engage in atrocities but this kill anything/everybody mindset is endemic to the American way of war -- and has been since before the dawn of the Republic. I chronicled it re: Vietnam War. Others have done so in terms of other conflicts and contexts
