it no longer served the corporate interest

and they offed it

>nationalism died in the 80s

why do you think that anti-globalization demos are smeared as "communist" and "against free trade"?

Nigger

Are you insane?

it no longer serves the corporate interest

The reagan years were ultranationalist

a little bit, yeah

but what did reagan focus on?

Youre talking out of your ass

he mass deregulated companies

and he raised taxes on the poor while cutting them on the rich

He focused on pretending to care about Americans

and he got involved in several *international* incidents

iran-contra ring any bells?

how about the hostage crisis?

the arming of the taliban?

you think he did that for fun?

Just to remind you in this turbopivot, youre original argument was that Americans are obcessed with brands and not where something is made

And i blew you out

well that was part of it, the brand is part of consumer culture

take a look at the tag on your shirt

mao has returned

yes

seriously, pull the collar around right now

and look at the tag

tell me what country that was made in

I dont know what brand it is lol

mine says thailand

Probably china nigger

but anyway

when you buy a shirt, do you really give a damn about where it's from anymore?

the people who can afford to are the ones who care about the brand

I dont have the money to care but almost every American does

people care more about the name attached to their shirt than where it's from, unless the corporation specifically pushes that it's "all-american" like that's some kind of Manchurian Candidate-style trigger word

the only time americans care about a product being made in america is if the corporation says it is
