  • Invading Cuba would destroy the American Empire right now. That’s why they quarantine it via the blockade. They’d Even if they defeat the army in days, capture Havana, and imprison the president.

    Then what? It’s Iraq and Afghanistan on their doorstep. Except a huge chunk of the population actually liked the old government. And even those who don’t might be swayed when they lose their jobs, healthcare etc and they’re abused by Americans and their families murdered.

    A large urban centre for unrest. Mountains for resistance to hide in. Then the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Haiti, Puerto Rico etc nearby for rebels to foment unrest. The Virgin Islands, Miamia and Mexico to carry out assassinations and terrorist attacks against Americans.

    The US drone striking any boat in the Caribbean they think is rebels. Killing “innocents” and tourists.




  • They were like we wanted to swap the gender but we’re worried a strong Asian lady would be too Dragon Lady Stereotype. Like fuck off and cast Michelle Yeoh, she would have nailed it.

  • I think because of the material position of the meat producers and the economy/state protectionism, lab grown meat would become a culture war issue in the global north (“I’m not eating the bugs” etc).

    And the political capital necessary to make people eat “lab grown” meat instead of “natural meat” would probably be so extreme, like land reform and an actual cultural revolution, that at point why not just reduce the amount of meat consumed through plant based alternatives and non meat or reduced meat diets.
