Guyana president blasts journalist when discussing country’s oil reserves

[@circedge]

The west does nothing to lower its consumption but feels entitled to lecture other countries. How colonial.

Its the fact that Bp doesnt control guyanas oil . If they did they wouldn't care about carbon emissions.

[@robertstan298]

@@za_cpt The colonial mentality never went away. And why would it? The west has continued it's policies of world domination and hegemony over the "lesser" peoples and countries unabated for centuries. They just got smarter at hiding it in the modern age. And they also had the audacity in the early 1990s to imply that history has somehow ended and the arrogance to somehow believe they will always be the ones and THE ONLY ones calling the shots on this planet. So glad that the world, after the pharmaceutical lies pushed by the west and their "international" controlled institutions, the hypocrisy and lies on the war in Ukraine and the even more blatant double standards and even more egregious lies with the atrocities committed by the collective west in Gaza/Palestine has FINALLY started to wake up and rise up. With more and more Global South countries telling the west they're done being bullied, stolen from, lectured and undermined by them at every step. What a great time in history to be alive!

At 72, I've observed that game long enough to have seen it happen. Operation Mockingbird never stopped, and western nations outside the US have their own versions of it.

It is so vastly unfair for developed nations to criticize developing nations for producing oil when they massively benefits financially from more than 100 years of oil exploitation before we take climate change seriously. In terms of forest area percentage, UK and US are much much lower than countries such as Guyana and Suriname. Instead of criticizing Guyana, these westerns countries should focus more on reforestation like what China is doing.

Leftiest, and all over the world. We also, in the West, are trying to fight the Leftist, brainwashed from decades of Soviet Communist propaganda. Most likely you are just another Russian troll

Literally isnt hypocrisy

[@paolopetrozzi2213]

That is not "Western", but leftist-Woke hypocrisy, arrogance, 5Tu. P!. D1TY and ignorance. The West is in deep trouble because of it, because of increasingly spreading wokeism, alias "Critical Social Justice", which is neo-Marxism or the Gramsci Cultural Marxism.
