Some of the world’s largest companies have been accused of undermining democracy across the world by financially backing far-right political movements, funding and exacerbating the climate crisis, and violating trade union rights and human rights in a report published on Monday by the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC).
Amazon, Tesla, Meta, ExxonMobil, Blackstone, Vanguard and Glencore are the corporations included in the report. The companies’ lobbying arms are attempting to shape global policy at the United Nations Summit of the Future in New York City on 22 and 23 September.
Don’t forget the companies of the US, China, Russia, Israel, and Iran. Those companies are terribly for democracy
Whaaaaat…? In a time of economic struggles, companies would rather support fascists than risk letting socialism take over? This certainly never happened before, especially not in Germany.
Don’t forget Google, Apple, Oracle, Cloudflare
What’s cloudflare’s issue? Censorship?
And if this somehow fails impress you, we sold over 200 billion in tools of mass murder to the rest of the world last year alone as well!
Murica 🇺🇸, profiting off human misery since our inception, the British Empire apparently passed that torch.
Makes one think who all has been benefiting from the expansion of militarism and conflict, doesn’t it? But no need for us to worry, because I’m certain the peace-loving Democrats, who I’m assured by very democracy-valuing liberals, are despite all appearances definitely not nearly-indistinguishable from the open-fanged right-wing Republicans, and will stop this US militarism which is destroying the planet faster than anyone.
Pay no attention to the 3rd parties who actually come out against militarism; If we just give the wing of the bipartisan-imperialists who actually rely on working class margins whatever votes they want regardless of their actions forever, then surely because of how appreciative they are of us that they will gift to us some result that’s remotely different than all of exactly this and exactly what brought us here… right?
