"Foreign governments don't allow US military bases on their territory to protect themselves from their neighbors. They do it to protect themselves from the US. Those bases are 'protection' in the same way extortion payments to the Mafia are 'protection'."

🇺🇸 The US Empire controls the strongest, deadliest war machine the world has ever known.

🇺🇸 More than 800 military bases around the world, strangling the hopes of any nation or any people to resist US capitalist dominance.

🇺🇸 The US military is the greatest polluter in the history of the world, emitting more CO2 than most other countries.

🇺🇸 No single nation has ever done as much as the United States to destroy the ecosphere and to threaten the survival of not only humans, but of life itself.

Even if everyone in the world switched today from a gas/patrol car to an electric vehicle, that wouldn't change things. We still would have the same congestion, the same ugly infrastructure, the same risks for pedestrians, cyclists, and children — worse, in fact, because EVs are much heavier.

Even if everyone switched, we would still be producing fossil fuels and plastics, still be digging mines, building more and bigger roads and airports, and still be polluting the land, the air, and the water.

Plus we still would be stuck with the same huge systemic problems, still be slaves to capitalism, imperialism, and the military industrial complex.

EVs alone are not the answer. They may be a very small part of a much larger solution, but that's all.

The world could be moving closer now to full-scale nuclear war than ever before — and this won't help.

While we're on the subject of the obscene, insane, and unconscionable US war budget —

— we also should remember that the US military is the single biggest *polluter* in the world.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/mar/10/pentagon-us-military-emissions-climate-crisis

From the Guardian:

A 2019 report found that the Department of Defense is not only the largest consumer of energy in the US, but is also the world's largest institutional consumer of petroleum and, thus, the world's largest institutional emitter of greenhouse gases.
