    Most international laws and organizations, including the UN, were established to prop up colonialism and give legitimacy to rich countries accessing another’s resources. The crumbling of international “norms” may be a good thing in the long run; a dropping of the capitalist mask.

      Literally not even close. The ghouls that have held POTUS chair have some truly fucked up skeletons in their closet. The propaganda machine has just whitewashed them very well.

      Trump is just another in the long line of demons.

      But this action is objectively good for the rest of the world as it hurts US soft power even more in the long run. Destroying the empire from the within, one executive order at a time
