Those are not my adversaries, they’re the adversaries of US military industrial-complex and the imperial core capitalists in general. One reason they’re a thorn in the capitalists’ side is that they’re unable to exploit them through neocolonialism.

That's fine if you want to believe that, but that's not what the article is about that you posted. The article states that the president will be able to ban ANY non-us application by executive order which is inaccurate.
