    It’s important to consider where this aid is going. In the US most of it’s forreign aid over history has been gone to fund verious wars, such as most recently the war in ukraine and the war in gaza, where particularly the war in gaza is going towards funding genocide, definitely not something I would consider a worthy cause.

    Compare that to china which is specifically spending it’s money on helping the global south develop and lift developing countries out of poverty. It has been building infrastructure projects and giving grants mainly in africa but also in asia.

        This is utter bullshit.

        As I explained here, the food aid is a tool of imperialism. It’s a tool to keep the global south linked to the US Empire and remain underdeveloped, resulting in unequal exchange.

        As for Ukraine, you’re entirely wrong. In 2014, the west backed the far-right Euromaidan coup because the democratically elected president, Yanukovych, picked a Russian loan over one from the IMF that required austerity measures. The Stepan Bandera-upholding neo-Nazis orchestrated the Maidan Massacre, and began ethnically cleansing the Donbass region. 13,000 civilians were murdered by the Kiev regime over the course of a decade in the breakaway regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, and it was only when Kiev had ammassed a gigantic invasion force that Russia intervened to protect the DPR and LPR per their requests for aid.

        Here are even some western government sanctioned sources.

        • BBC, 2014: Ukraine underplays role of far right in conflict
        • Human Rights Watch, 2014: Ukraine: Unguided Rockets Killing Civilians
        • The Hill, 2017: The reality of neo-Nazis in Ukraine is far from Kremlin propaganda
        • The Guardian, 2017: ‘I want to bring up a warrior’: Ukraine’s far-right children’s camp – video
        • WaPo, 2018: The war in Ukraine is more devastating than you know
        • Reuters, 2018: Ukraine’s neo-Nazi problem
        • The Nation, 2019: Neo-Nazis and the Far Right Are On the March in Ukraine
        • openDemocracy, 2019: Why Ukraine’s new language law will have long-term consequences
        • Jacobin, 2022: A US-Backed, Far Right–Led Revolution in Ukraine Helped Bring Us to the Brink of War
        • Consortium News, 2022: Evidence of US-Backed Coup in Kiev
        • Al Jazeera, 2022: Why did Ukraine suspend 11 ‘pro-Russia’ parties?
        • History of Fascism in Ukraine: Part I, Part II, Part III, Part IV

        Groups like Azov have been folded in officially. The Kiev regime upholds Stepan Bandera and uses likeness for propaganda. Nazis infest Ukrainian leadership:

        The east supported Yanukovych, and that’s why the far-right Banderites couping him kicked off the war.
