This is the elephant in the room no one wants to talk about.
Whether it's Iraq, Gaza, or Venezuela, there are no sanctions, travel bans, cultural boycotts, or exclusion from sporting events.
Because at the end of the day, the US sets the rules and the "International Community" has to follow.

The U.S. is a rogue state which should be sanctioned and condemned by the international community for our flagrant violations of international law and the peace of the world. We won't be, because imperialists tend to stick together.

Tech companies are not seriously trying to build sustainable platforms or businesses. We are not the market anymore. Their market is investors and their sole business goal is duping as many gullible investors as they can this quarter.
my 75yo mother told me last night that she’s planning to delete Instagram and Facebook because she’s sick of not being able to tell what’s AI and what’s not, and I genuinely don’t think tech companies have reckoned with this kind of move as an actual possibility

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"
