Totally agree.

But, to be fair, #European #history is full of violence and resource theft, too.

And while I'm not much deep into #Chinese and #Russian internal history, I guess they are not much better (even excluding the last century, I mean).

To dismantle the #US-led world order is urgent.

But we should be careful to not just replace them with another oppressive empire.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@DrALJONES/116029489613320355

100% agreed with the sentiment of a boycott of the US.

But, let's acknowledge that the violence of the US started 250 years ago (really 534 years w/ Columbus) with genocide of the indigenous people of these continents. Then continued in slavery and violent foreign interventions as far back as the 1800s.

Violence and resource theft is a foundational element of US domestic and foreign policy. Trump is just being more open about it. Let's be totally honest about this history!

Any boycott, to be honest, needs to go far beyond Trump and acknowledge what came before and what would come after. Trump and his regime is a big red, pussy zit that's rupturing all over itself and everyone else.

Now is the time for a full reckoning with 70+ years of US hegemony. The global community, Northern and Southern nations, have an opportunity to begin a re-balancing of the global order.

A better, more fair and sane world will be one where the US is demoted. No better, no more powerful than any other.

another page from 非人哉 "Inhuman!" that amused me because I'm a Halloween stan:

"Happy Halloween! The office is holding a festive little pumpkin carving contest. Here you go."

"H-HALLOWEEN?! Sir, did you forget we're all CHINESE spirits? You expect us to know what to do with a pumpkin?! Do we look like vampires and werewolves to you?!"

"... When did you guys learn how to do that?"

#chinese #translation #halloween
