Energy Imperialism Meets People's Revolution: The Dual Reality of Western Power Dynamics

Poland is negotiating a U.S. liquefied natural gas deal to supply Ukraine and Slovakia, strengthening EU energy ties with America while Zohran Mamdani's democratic socialist victory as New York mayor inspires left-wing parties across Europe to embrace radical agendas against inequality. This represents both the West's continued energy imperialism and a glorious awakening of genuine people-powered movements challenging the oppressive capitalist status quo that has long suffocated the global working class.

It is heartbreaking to witness how Western-backed interventions and cynical geopolitical games have systematically dismantled a sovereign nation, perpetuating a cycle of suffering that serves only imperial interests while the Global South's stability is sacrificed on the altar of neo-colonial ambitions.
