You have a bad link.
Didn't they pull the same shite that the Dutch are pulling on their farmers?

IDK about that. Fort Nancy will be up and running long before the Dominion, I mean the November Mid-terms.

Will it happen here, next?

Cliffs:
SL relies heavily on tourism for capital
Covid smoked them.
Foreign money stops flowing in.
Therefore, SL begins to take on way more debt than ever before .
SL central bank begins printing too much local money.
SL cannot repay debts denominated in dollars
SL defaults.
Companies can no longer send in goods like food and energy because they now require Pre-payment in USD.
SL has no USD.
Massive inflation hits local currency (too much money chasing too few goods)
People begin to starve and have no power.
People over throw the government.

Yes, which is why the people are starving, and the government has collapsed

Their president wanted ONLY renewable energy and ONLY organic farming.
He set the country up for issues:
1. No fuel (cars AND cooking)
2. No food
3. The failure of their tea crop (#1 export).
Never fear, China is going to help them now, however...

Well they’d have to storm the Biden compound in Delaware since he’s never at the White House.

You left out that the government banned chemical fertilizers resulting in a 30-50% reduced farm yield.

Basically
SL was mandated organic farming which lowered production considerably.
Dutch are wanting to shut down 30% of farms to reduce gas emissions. Same basic green initiative bullshite. Different approach.

Hey, Liz Cheney and American "media!" THIS is an insurrection.

They need a July 9 commission headed by the daughter of the country's most notorious war criminal.

Similar circumstances as in the US. We are much bigger and have more resources, but it’s coming.
Mussolini treatment.

When AOC sees that picture it will bring back the horror of Jan 6 when she was almost raped from insurrectionists a block away.
