G7 Imperialist Vultures seeking relevance

So, in order to counter the almost ten-year old, Trillion dollars China’s Belt and Road (BRI) initiative, the imperialist dreamers in the G7 pledged to embark on projects that will build rails, roads and things in the Global South which they named Build Back Better World (B3W).

Really!

These mofos are beyond irony.

Did they need a reminder that they created the mess we are in today with their wretched Neo-liberal Jurassic economic model of dog-eat-dog man-eat-shit, which they forcibly forced on the rest of the world?

If these shameless, rapacious world rapers have the ability to build something better should they not start with their own countries?

Or does charity no longer begins at home?

The massive population of homeless people eking out miserable existence on the streets of glitzy Los Angeles should tell us that the hypocritical talking heads that gathered in Cornwall have absolutely no interest in the welfare of the common man. The images of vagrant panhandlers who defecate openly few kilometers away from Hollywood continue to haunt my memory!

I saw more homeless people on the streets of London than I ever saw in Kasoa. Yet, the imbecilic racist in charge of Her Majesty’s government is babbling obnoxious nonsense about helping some poor people in Africa!

When in her entire wretched history has parsimonious Britain helped anyone?

And, which human being with an iota of brain cell will believe that a ruthless and barbaric colonial leech like France is interested in helping anyone in Africa?

It is difficult to imagine what these G7 mofos eat and drink which made them think that the rest of us are deaf, dumb and blind as to believe their stupid promises.

The rapacious vultures with their gluttonous appetite for exploitation like to look good; they like to pose as White Messiahs on altruistic mission to save the world.

But their insincerity is manifested by their refusal to lift the ban on patent protection for the COVID vaccines.

Alas, they would rather see human beings die than countenance a dip in their profit.

That singular action will not only save lives, it will show the world that these rapers of the world have turned a new leaf.

Instead, they loudly told the world about donating vaccines!

If France is interested in lending a helping to Africa, it can easily demonstrate it by tearing up the Pacte Coloniale it imposed on its colonies (I didn’t say ex) in Africa through which it continues to bleed the unfortunate colonial garrisons called countries.

Unfortunately, journalism is no longer what it used to be!

Today, mainstream journalists have become glorified stenographers who merely record, copy and regurgitate whatever is handed over to them.

Today’s western journalists have happily accepted to become extensions of their governments’ ministry of propaganda, euphemistically called information. They merely repackage and amplify whatever nonsense their imperial masters chose to tell the world.

So many questions are begged by this patently ludicrous announcement by the G7 capitalist vultures who like to masquerade as global saviors, let’s consider just a few:

1. In the over 500 years of Europe cynical control of the world, how many roads and rails did European build that were designed to do little than to facilitate their exploitation and plundering of other people’s resources and wealth?
2. With the US and European economies debt-ridden and in tatters, where will the money they promised to splash on infrastructure in the Global South going to come from?
3. Pray, with the infrastructures in, for example, the UK in dilapidated tatters, why should we believe the leader of that island of iniquities when he promised to do for the Global South what he cannot do for his own country?

Didn’t our Elders warned us that we should carefully examine the clothes worn by someone who promised to buy garment for us?

I have traveled on some really appalling trains in England that I cannot believe that a country that so brutally exploited the world cannot build itself decent trains.

And the smallish, roach-infested council flats they call homes in the UK, my goodness!

Honestly, I have stopped blaming the capitalist vultures for making obstreperous noises; I blame those among us who continue to help in amplifying their nonsensical effusions!
