Comment on there's laundry to do and a genocide to stop

Wouldn’t be the first time I’ve heard someone say “National SOCIALISM!” But I think this is more referring to the Kristen Sinemas and Robert Menendezes who spend more time finding ways to strangle Cuba to death and sell F-35s to Turkish dictators than to curb carbon emissions or mitigate the damage inflicted by COVID.
If you know of a better way to describe what kind of ideologue sips $1000 btl wine in a cave full of corporate arms dealers while negotiating the finer points of our next proxy war in Latin America, I’d love to hear it.

Because everyone forgot to be mad about the Uyghurs somehow.

If the Uyghurs had been on the other side of the China/Afghanistan border, we’d be gasoline bombing them while half the nation clapped.
On the off chance that China does a Capitalist Revolution and all those western business interests discover they’ve got an opportunity to strip mine Hongshan Mountain for precious metals, its going to be Iraq War Redux over there inside a hot minute.
Even now, folks from the NBA to Hollyweird have decided actually China is very cool and good, so long as they can keep selling jerseys and toys to middle-income kids and box seat tickets to traveling executives.
