I have mixed feelings. On one hand, the USAID bad. On the other, Modi bad (despite potential for multipolar role)

This is the type of social sin God would make the Israelites put into Exodus for, due to their straying from the path

The labor market is indeed regulated by that supply and demand. That is a foregone conclusion. However, that doesn't guarantee necessarily higher wages and thus higher quality of life, proportionately speaking.

That itself is a struggle over whether "general profit", after accounting for wages, is reinvested for the social needs, such as housing, food and water, education.

Assuming that "general profit" (savings) + wages (needed for laborers' means of subsistence) = value created.

And assuming wages are sufficient enough for higher quality of life.

But put into the equation the landlords, the shareholders, industrialists that dominate our world by virtue of owning the property that shapes it, who want to depress wages, if it means more "general profit", and direct their savings towards more capital accumulation

It has learned from its past it should weaponize it.

No. No one else, which is too bad.

It's simple. I accidentally bump my head on something above me, whether it be the top of a bunk bed or a staircase handle where I'm sitting nearby.

Here's the source of saying that in GMA news, a Filipino news site and channel:

https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/topstories/nation/927983/sara-duterte-marcos/story/

She also "theoretically" threatened to throw president Bongbong's father's corpse into the sea

Why is she doing stuff like this, you ask?

Cuz Bongbong's making an China-hawk policy, regarding the West Philippine Sea claims

Note: this may not work for Amerikans, Australians, and other settler-colonial people, who understandably think that if Israel is next, they're next...

Yeah, the Stasi were like "yeah, this guy threatened to blow up an embassy, let's let him go and then shoot his ass for it"

As one Australian war criminal once said

"Shoot straight you bastards! Don't make a mess of yourselves!"
