Democrats and the White House have agreed in principle to raise the threshold for asylum claims as part of the bill to fund wars in Israel and Ukraine, but liberals are livid — and Republicans want more.
Are America’s sanctions on Cuba and Venezuela acts of war?
Sanctions? No. A blockade? Fuck yes it would be.
Also you really don’t understand what imperialism is, do you? Imperialism is an economic structure used to extract superprofit from imperialized nations. Annexation and integration are fundamentally different, because China has no plans to turn Taiwan into a labor/resource colony.
Ah, the “White Man’s Burden” argument, classic as far as imperialist bootlicking goes.
Okay, so you won’t admit the embargo is a blockade.
Well, why wouldn’t China do the same thing? Treat Taiwan exactly the same as America treats Cuba? That seems likely to me, and actually would be clever from a propaganda standpoint since they could use this to undermine US legitimacy.
