Supported by rich right-wing elites, so-called “trucker” protests (led by non-truckers and opposed by truckers' unions) have paralyzed the capitals of Brazil and Canada in less than six months.
The son of Brazil's far-right President Jair Bolsonaro, Eduardo -- a fascist extremist who called for bringing back tactics from the dictatorship, including suspending civil liberties to crush the left -- is openly supporting the rightwing convoy in Canada
The trucker convoy in Canada is so obviously a rightwing operation astroturfed by conservative billionaires. It's absurd seeing some "leftists" pretend otherwise
This is Texas' far-right attorney general, a corrupt Tea Party pet project who tried to help Trump steal the election
It's clear as day that the Canada trucker convoy is astroturfed by rightwing oligarchs. Trump is promoting it, and single rich donors were giving them $215,000, which is how it got $10 million in 2 weeks
It's similar to a billionaire-funded rally Bolsonaro recently did in Brazil
In September, Brazil's far-right leader Bolsonaro and ultra-rich allies organized an astroturfed rally, which they marketed as "grassroots"
Corporate oligarchs paid to send many buses to the rally. Trump aide Jason Miller was in Brazil helping organize it brasilwire.com/september-7th-…
Ukrainian President Zelensky is a Western puppet, so now that he's contradicting his masters in Washington, don't be surprised if he is suddenly replaced
Zelensky reassured reporters, "There is a feeling abroad that there is war here. That's not the case" edition.cnn.com/2022/01/28/pol…
One of the reasons the US is pushing so aggressively against Russia over Ukraine is it wants to keep Europe dependent on US energy
The US recently became the world’s #1 exporter of liquefied natural gas for the first time ever, thanks to exports to Europe aljazeera.com/economy/2022/1…
As the Covid-19 pandemic ripped through society, killing more than 854,000 people in the US, the government (of both Trump and Biden) abandoned its people
Pro-imperialist Democrat @DavidKlion is an Obama apologist who aggressively reiterated Russiagate conspiracy theories that were proved hilariously wrong (and he deleted a ton of tweets to hide it)
Now he's lecturing The Left™ on why it must condemn China. Shame on @thenation
Excellent analysis of the coup attempt in Kazakhstan, written by an analyst with Brazil's Workers' Party, addressing natural resources, US new cold war on Russia/China, etc.
"It’s important to remember that Kazakhstan has some of the world’s largest mineral and fossil fuel reserves."
"However, the greatest importance of Kazakhstan has to do with its privileged geographical location, as a natural bridge between East Asia, the Middle East and Europe."
Brazilian Workers' Party analyst: "The current rebellion in Kazakhstan therefore has a clear parallel with Ukraine’s 'orange revolution', which placed that nation into Washington’s orbit, and with recent attempts to destabilize the Belarus regime" brasilwire.com/brazil-kazakhs…
