This is how the system previously worked, as economist Michael Hudson showed in his book Super Imperialism.

But it is changing with de-dollarization. China's holdings of US Treasury securities have been falling for a decade.

Japan is what is keeping the imperial Ponzi scheme

Having once again been arbitrarily denied access to the Occupied Palestinian Territory by Israel, I have travelled across the region to meet with Palestinians and others who could help me better understand/assess developments on the ground.

Based on the information received, I

There is no end to US government hypocrisy:

While the US actively sends weapons to Israel to help it carry out a genocide, the US is calling on the world to stop sending weapons to Sudan to prevent what it claims is a potential new genocide.

NATO-allied West Germany never de-Nazified after World War II. Its justice ministry was run by Nazis.

Today, Germany supports Israel's genocide against Palestinians, and is making Palestinians stateless, like it did to Jews.

Fascism and colonialism were always directly linked.

Palestinian students at Otto von Guericke University in Magdeburg, Germany received an email from the school that they’ve been recategorized as “stateless” due to governmental “changes in the statistical requirements.”

Germany no longer recognizes Palestinian as a nationality.

Massive tariffs on Chinese EVs will put low-carbon driving out of reach for most consumers, thereby constituting a de-facto fossil fuel subsidy.

Through decades of neoliberalism, the capitalist class in the West has financialised its economy and is now incapable of competing in

This devastating report shows how a so-called 'China expert' who was candidate to be US Undersecretary of Commerce was 100% wrong in claims he made to dub Chinese companies 'national security threats'.

This fake 'expert' helps craft US sanctions on China

If you look neutrally at the data, you start to realize that the US simply doesn't want China to export cars, or anything high tech.

Washington wanted China to stay trapped at the bottom of the global value chain, producing cheap, low value-added goods for Global North consumers

You wanna talk about 'overcapacity'?

South Korea exports 15 times more cars per capita than China.

Germany exports 11 times more cars per capita than China.

Japan exports 10 times more cars per capita than China.

China's per capita car exports are a tiny fraction of those of Japan, Germany, and South Korea. So why aren't those countries accused of 'overcapacity'? Why are they allowed to export so much with no US backlash?

(We know the answer: They're US allies.)

Let's look at the data:

The US government is desperately pressuring the International Criminal Court (ICC) to try to stop it from issuing arrest warrants for Israeli officials over their US-sponsored genocide in Gaza.

US officials are threatening to impose sanctions on the ICC.
