    Agreed. It reminds me of a headline I read in the last 48 hours about UK chemicals - pesticides, I think - that are banned for use in the UK, but UK companies manufacture them domestically and export them.

    Both corporate-mediated colonialism. Like traditional colonialism, except profits never enter the public purse of the colonizing country, instead going purely to corporations.

    It’s really sinister. What a boring, cruel timeline.
