This is the genocidal racism of imperialism: 1/3rd of the US population would support "preemptive" nuclear war on North Korea—even knowing it would kill 1 million innocent people

This genocidal imperial racism is promoted by the US gov and corporate media
newsweek.com/us-support-nor…
North Koreans see the US as no better than Nazi Germany—except the US won the war and terrorizes the world

Some genocidal Americans surveyed said they prefer nuclear war "to end North Korea," because "It's our best chance of eliminating the North Koreans"
newsweek.com/us-support-nor…
In the survey, when the number of expected North Korean deaths from US nuclear war "increased from 15,000 to 1.1 million, preference for using nuclear weapons among respondents who favor the death penalty INCREASED from 38% to 49%"

Little Eichmanns.

@BBCBreaking While Western corporate media propaganda portrays the anti-China protesters in Hong Kong as "progressive," they are violently breaking into the legislature and hanging up the flag of the genocidal, racist, mass-murdering British empire — which colonized HK
@BBCBreaking Here are photos of the colonial British flags that anti-China protesters in Hong Kong (a British colony until 1997) proudly brought with them as they violently broke into the legislature

For much of the world this flag is a symbol of genocide, murder, racism, oppression, robbery
@BBCBreaking Some of the main so-called "pro-democracy" (actually more like pro-colonialist) groups leading the anti-China protests in Hong Kong are funded by the US government's soft-power arm the NED and the Western NGO-industrial complex

"With Huawei sanctions, US intensifies technological war on China" — Excellent analysis from @newsclickin

"This is really opening a new front. And here the issue is to push Huawei cellphones out of the market, particularly out of the non-Chinese market"
US sanctions on Huawei are "not a part of only a larger trade war; it's a technology war."

This "punctures the Silicon Valley argument that the companies of Silicon Valley, Google, Facebook, were truly global, and not beholden to any single government"
Huawei was leading the world in new 5G technological breakthroughs, and could have overtaken Western corporations in controlling global 5G networks.

"Now they've been held back because of the US telling all its allies not to buy 5G equipment from Huawei"

Say no to imperialist "feminism": Celebrity Angelina Jolie wrote this with NATO leader Jens Stoltenberg, calling for NATO to be a "leader" on women's rights.

NATO destroyed Yugoslavia and Libya and supported European fascists during the Cold War and today
theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
NATO destroyed Libya — which had once been the most prosperous and equal nation in Africa — reducing it to a failed state which now has open-air slave markets where sub-Saharan African refugees are sold for a few dollars

This is what NATO truly represents
fair.org/home/media-nat…
NATO produced a f(l)ashy film that portrayed the Forest Brothers, Baltic former Nazi collaborators who had declared a loyalty oath to Hitler, as "freedom fighters" and anti-communist heroes because they fought the Soviet Union

😂 you may be on to something. Do Democrats think a nuclear war with North Korea would stop climate change? Nuclear winter?
"If we don't go to nuclear war with someone in the next 12 years we will all die of climate change" The Nuclear-New Deal
The New-clear deal. The Newclear deal....

There's a joke here......

7. United States decided to label #IRGC terrorists. But who are the real terrorists? Who created, trained, armed & financed the worst terrorist groups in the world?

Talking about Jussie Smollett: "They said 'he got attacked by MAGA country', I said 'what the hell is MAGA country?'"

This speech from the NRCC today is freaking hilarious 😂😂😂

So far he has called the Republicans in the room cowards ("you're afraid of the media") and said they got ripped off in trade forever ("you've been here a lot longer than me") and I can not stop laughing 😂
😂😂😂 he just joked that he refers to President Xi of China as "King" because he is President for life.

I can just imagine him walking around the White House yelling "Get me the King of China on the phone!"

Trump begins in the Rose Garden by talking about the trade negotiations with China. "It's going extremely well. Who knows what that means," he says.
Trump is more correct than usual on the trade deficit with China, saying it's $375 billion (that's the goods-only deficit), then reverts to his eternal lie: "Lots of people think it's $506 billion. Some people think it's much more than that."
Trump is now talking about trade with the United Kingdom. A bit of an odd introduction to an announcement of a national emergency on immigration.

Trump tells Fox and Friends that he decided to do an interview with them because it's Melania's birthday. Asked what he got her, he pauses and says, "Maybe I didn't get her so much. I got her a beautiful card."
Trump explains that he got Melania flowers but not another gift because he's very busy being president.
"How about Diamond and Silk?" the president says. "There were these two women...beautiful, wonderful women..." He calls them "warriors."
