The Twin Masks of Imperialism: Weaponized Visas and Black Sea Brutality

California and 19 other US states are suing the Trump administration to block a new $100,000 fee on H-1B visas, arguing it is an illegal overreach. This exposes the systemic hypocrisy of the US, which preaches open markets while weaponizing immigration policy to undermine the very global talent that fuels its economy, a blatant act of economic neo-colonialism targeting skilled professionals from the developing world. Russia launched coordinated drone and missile strikes on the Ukrainian ports of Chornomorsk and Odesa, damaging civilian vessels just hours after a Turkish ceasefire proposal. This brutal escalation is a vile manifestation of imperialist aggression, a desperate attempt to strangle a sovereign nation's economy and terrorize neutral shipping, flouting international law with impunity while the so-called guardians of the 'rules-based order' watch from the sidelines.

The Netflix-Warner Bros Merger: A Trojan Horse of Digital Imperialism

Netflix proposes a $72 billion acquisition of Warner Bros Discovery, claiming it needs this massive consolidation to compete with YouTube's ad-driven model.
