So on top of having to deal with this shit, Amerika decided to coup the extremely popular president who might have actually implemented policies to improve the situation
And without that couped President coming back to office (unlikely, he’s facing trumped up terrorism charges), the infrastructure damages these floods have and will cause will be paid for with IMF loans. Yet another win for Amerikkka.
I hope his army of supporters (not an exaggeration in this case) will force a new election soon despite the BS charges
His popular support is unprecedented. The fascist compradors are panicking.
Here is a discussion on the subject: https://youtu.be/4uEaguZfr3M
“Officials say at least 33 million people – one in every seven Pakistanis – have been affected by the floods, which have killed 1,136 people since the monsoon began in June.”
“Rehman said “literally a third” of Pakistan was under water, describing it as akin to a dystopian movie.”
“Pakistan is responsible for less than one percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, but is eighth on a list compiled by the NGO Germanwatch of countries deemed most vulnerable to extreme weather caused by climate change.”
““Sindh is half of Pakistan’s breadbasket and will not be able to grow anything at all next season,” she predicted.”
…that’s bleak
Look what the capitalists have done to our planet.
Well this is depressing :(
Hard not to be a doomer these days
Socialism or barbarism
oof.
So who is giving Pakistan aid?
After the coup d’etat, it will likely be the IMF with all of the neoliberal conditions that aid comes with.
That means it will go into the coup governments bank accounts and property in London.
Wait, so Pakistan has become IRL Atlantis? This would be neat if so many peoples’ lives weren’t being devastated by it.
