Definitely, I wish I knew some media that covers Africa as a whole. With all of the US’s attention on the Russian, Chinese, and Iranian corners of Asia, it has neglected both Latin America and Africa in political struggle. Unlike the former’s proximity to the US, Africa is capable of mobilizing decolonial struggle with much more force. I think there is many reasons for this ‘sudden’ resistance. For one I think racism plays a role in the West underestimating African potential to challenge it (plus there’s no chosen big bad boogey man to commit an arms race with). As well as not understanding all the political avenues of struggle due to the negligence and homogenization of the diverse cultures of Africa. But secondly I think the alienation of Africa’s natural resources from the finance brained West via industrial middle men countries like China, leads the West to totally negate Africa in the manufactured products they consume, or at least I haven’t seen much awareness of it.

As far as I have seen, he gives me hope for the future of this world, especially considering how young he is.

Like epic fail as in a pyrrhic victory, or in the mission goal to get rid of them? I honestly don’t know that much because I am so distrusting of anything in English about that era of Mao, yet I know a LOT of mistakes were made and don’t know a quality analysis of it.

Crazy how many things are named after metals, just the other day I realized Plumber and the latin word for lead Plumbum were related, and the horrifying tangent being all pipes for most of history were made with lead and thus Plumber is just lead worker, and the title carries that history despite modernly being associated with Mario and more than enough sexual innuendos. Wild.

How does this affect Iran’s position against the Empire? I admittedly know little of it’s internal politics and I assume Raeisi isn’t the strongman glue keeping the anti imperial alignment in working order like Putin, and Iran will still be able to overcome this with comparatively little internal strife to other anti imperialist nations. Such a dumb fucking way to go in a critical time, rest in peace.
