Yes, these guys are just giving you the quick overview. The enemy is colonialism, which has transformed into the neocolonial financial system. This includes all the core countries like USA, Israel, Western Europe, Japan, Canada, South Korea, and Australia: together they control the world's banks, international legal bodies, high-tech manufacturing, as well as the academic and journalistic training and distribution systems.

So the problem is actually much deeper than a few bad sources. The most valuable fields of study have been twisted by capitalism or basically just destroyed. Just take a look at how they've been dealing with climate change. Just because dealing with negative externalities on a business or society level is unprofitable or political suicide, we've been treating it like it can't be mitigated by constraints on manufacturing, and new solutions can't be invented. The Guardian has been posting the same stupid crap about spraying sulfur into the atmosphere for decades, and until recently they pretended investing in green energy + vehicles + industry could never be made profitable.

Seems like something easily avoided with the Fossify Contacts app since you can just do a file backup

American hegemony is better described as global dictatorship of international finance capital. The countries being called "rival superpowers" today are merely semi-peripheral industrial powers that are too developed to be bullied by the United States and its allies, despite their control over the banking system and formidable weaponry.

China and Russia are not pursuing mutualistic development with third world countries out of some kind of moral obligation. It is just more efficient than jockeying for control in the neocolonial system. You know who is trying that? Turkey and India. Watch, they'll get left behind to line Erdogan and Modi's pockets. Just relax gringo nobody is coming to take your [checks notes] koalas. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Reagan was able to do it by clicking his fingers. He wasn't exactly a dove.

But just imagine how inconvenient that would be. Have you ever read the highly important liberal ideological tract "When You Give A Mouse A Cookie"? Winning is highly problematic for dems. They want to send donation emails and keep you in a constant spiral of dread forever.

Israel is not an entirely separate sovereign nation from the USA. Neither is Jordan, Bahrain, Egypt, South Korea, Japan, Finland, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Sweden, Austria, Switzerland, Norway, Denmark, Spain, Italy, Hungary, France, the UK, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Australia, Canada, Argentina, India, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, or Singapore. Did I miss anyone? I got tired so I know I missed someone.

What's the problem with Gecko browsers exactly? The only issue I have is disabling JShelter for new domains.
