Americans somehow wrongfully believe, that the US military is a humanitarian organisation.
That the US goes to war for “freedom & democracy” or to “liberate people from dictators”
None of this has been true since the end of WW2 & even then, that was also mostly US self interest
@Eangel4285
No.1 capitalist scam that almost everyone somehow believes in, is that capitalism drives innovation.
The only innovation that capitalism really drives, is the innovation of how to make more profit for less cost. Cheat.

Err… Ireland…!?
Ireland was never a colonial power in Africa (or anywhere else).
Ireland was instead a very subjugated nation by Britain & not a colonist power at all.
You could have said Italy instead. Italy was definitely a colonial power in Africa. Tell me if I am wrong?

In Eastern cultures, there is almost no way that this young woman is forced out of the family home.
I have never seen it, but maybe it has happened somewhere in the East. Although extremely unlikely.
Even when married, the couple may still be able to stay in the family home.

The Palestinian people have to right to fight back against their oppressors & retake their homelands.

It looks like a setup to me.
These “Chinese” people are not from the Chinese Embassy & don’t walk around Britain with Chinese flags & tell people not to film.

Yes, the relationship between China & Equatorial Guinea is transactional (as you feared).
China wants to buy oil, gas & other natural resources & Equatorial Guinea wants to sell these resources.
It is just that China gives Equatorial Guinea a much better deal than the West.
I am sick of this misconception.
The Democratic Party is completely unable to become a political party of the working class.
The Democratic Party is addicted to money & the big money donors are ruthless, regardless of whether a particular candidate takes corporate money or not.

What do Russian elections have to do with the Ukrainian military setting up their rockets near a kindergarten?
When the Russians fire back, they will be likely to hit the school, to destroy the Ukrainian rockets. This is the real issue.

@Lukewearechange

The Ukrainian military likely wants the Russians to fire back & hit the school.

China was building vital infrastructure throughout the world, as a part of the Belt & Road Initiative, all while they pulled 800 million people out of extreme poverty.

Just to be sure, the US & NATO have zero ability to defeat Russia in Ukraine.

US health insurance companies always play that “deny every claim” game & make everyone fight for health care coverage.
It is a really weird system, to make people fight for every penny.
Every dollar that the insurance company keeps, is money that does not go on health care.
Hillary has huge support?

No...
Hillary is intensely disliked & mistrusted. Even many people who voted for Hillary in the general election, where just voting against Trump. Don't confuse people voting against Trump, as any large support for Hillary.

A US invasion of Iran, would be Iraq X10.

One of the reasons why Russia is now so much more united in support for the Ukraine war; because so many Russians have come to fully understand that this is a war between Russia & NATO.

So you missed the fact that NATO was all over Ukraine & that NATO trained, armed & funded the Ukrainian military from 2014.

If the Ukraine wanted to keep the Donbas in Ukraine, then the very first step to that end was to abide by the Minsk agreements & to STOP KILLING THE PEOPLE IN THE DONBAS.

It was a setup, to have them complain, as if Chinese people demand that people in western countries obey them.
Nothing more than a setup to get a bit of attention & promote that Chinese people complain about this sort of thing.
What “freedoms are being traded” exactly?
China is not a draconian country to live & work in.
The fact is that China is both harmonious & prosperous, but the Chinese did not have to “give up their freedoms” for any of this.
Harmony & prosperity is what almost all Chinese want.
If the government shows it has your interests at heart, many are happy to trade freedoms for it.
The state can earn immense goodwill so long as people believe it is working to make life better for them.
In a society long used to suffering, change is good.
