What is that logic? America must oppress people so they get stronger and expell them?

How about American just leave other countries alone?

The mental gymnastics you perform sickens me

So trading between two foreign nations is prohibited if the US doesn’t allow it. Gtfo.

Also if that is the case, why not attack china is bigger trade partner to Russia than Venezuela. This is purely and simply imperialism and you defending it is disgusting.

Did what?

I still do not agree military action against him can help in any way.

Also if you see the American supported candidate for position… I wouldn’t bet on improvement any time soon.

Why is Maduro incompetent?

Shame will not change a thing

That is just US apologists spreading propaganda.

Shitty situation? They are bombing another country and started a war.

This is preventable, unnecessary and very much on purpose. Fuck America, fuck all it’s presidents and fuck all the people supporting this.

It’s less than that?

Do you have link to an article about that, sounds crazy.

Syncthing enjoyer

Is that another American thing? Seems like a dumb idea if you have at least a handful of braincells.

My guess is because America has been moving to the right and shifting the overton windown for the whole “west” right with it.

How long before they start measuring skulls at job interviews

I do agree entirely, I also live in a very car dependant country and traveling is very complicated for me because I refuse to use a car.

Yes I do agree, I do not think all cars should be destroy right this moment, but the reliance on cars in our current society can be greatly decreased via proper public transportation just like the reliance on diesel generators (on the society level) is negligible because of our electric system.

No my problem is not with the diesel generator, I wanted to contradict the individualistic approach to transportation in our current society with the collectivistic approach of something like our energy grid.

There was another example with septic tanks vs plumbing. You can say the same for drilling wells vs again plumbing I guess.

Solar microgrids are very interesting technology in particula and very positive again because you can connect and coordinate them collectively with you neighbors for example. With the added benefit of flexibility and resilience the current grid doesn’t have.

Yes, but one system is destructive, polluting and shifts the cost of transportation on the individual. So one system is clearly better here. That is why no one (ok very few people) who have electrified house or apartment decides “you know what I will need a diesel generator”.

Yes, thank you. Very well said.
