Yes, that is what I was thinking too.

Broader historically looking more “socialist” politicians were targeted when they started taking against police or megacorps. And this one is both.

Genuinely asking (I don’t know that much about USAC politics etc) - how much is his life at risk?

He owns a factory, I’m sure the batch isn’t ruined if there isn’t an inspector to witness that.

“Oy, Willy Wanka’, you can’t do that, we are shutting you down!”

“But you haven’t even seen just how undocumented my sexy workers are. Like, scientists haven’t documented them yet, not even a name assigned to the species. Would you like to take one home & we forget about all these technicalities?”

“Are these people with dwarfism you painted & labeled a different species so you don’t have to pay them???”

“No, I’m a factory owner, such allegations would be out of character for such an entrepreneur!”

Edit: didn’t know, but they are just purple humans … paid in beans … cocoa beans, not lemmy beans (which as we know, do actually irl come from slave labour).

They are small humans who were preyed upon by the various predators that reside in their homeland before Wonka invited them to work at his factory. They are paid in their favorite food, cocoa beans, which were extremely rare on their island. The Oompa-Loompas are mischievous, loving to play practical jokes and singing songs which, according to Wonka, they are very good at improvising.

And the problem isn’t in screening/forced security.

Why would you assume that my answer would be “one man”? It was an incredibly complex conflict that was really a collection of smaller regional conflicts with various allies between them.

There’s no singular cause of WW2.

Because basically all of those reasons are the same as WWI but amplified by the restrictions (manufactured economic crisis) posed upon Germany at the end of WWI.

That is why I said it can be viewed as the same war.
(Imho - anyways it’s literally just semantics, perhaps propaganda of the victors a bit.)

Much like (the recent-ish) Russia in Ukraine - it’s usually not viewed as two separate wars, one in 2014 & the other in 2022. Bcs it’s the same thing, it was oblivious that it isn’t over & both Russia & NATO/Ukraine have all been actively preparing each year.

However, in retrospect, many people would say when Germany invaded Poland. That said, USSR and Finland were already fighting at that point, as well as Japan and China.

Yeah, Japan in China started basically in 31 (13 years after official end of WWI, a much more European thing), whereas Germany’s first foreign move was the military invasion of Austria in 38.

Yes!

We call them weeds but also eat them :D … :(
(Fairly on brand for us tbh)

No need to attack a perfectly nice plant like that.

So what caused WWII?

I assume your answer is ‘one man’?

In the same way “terrorist groups” arent created by the dominant force exerting mass injustice?

Zomg, Boeing planes being flown above enemy territory as surprise kamikazes (surprise to the pilots & crew).

None of which are socialist.

They are all systematically weaved out of the closed, private two-party system.

And it will last you till your death (several days later).

Decades implies that it once (in USAs history) wasn’t so, which is false. The rest of it if very true tho.

WWII literally began after Austria (Hitler’s homeland) was already a region of Germany (since March 38).

wiki/Anschluss
wiki/Reichsgau

They have been.

Months after assassination of Ferdinand the actual fighting began, and most projected it would be just anther war (common at the time in Europe, tho less common each century). People living through it knew nothing about it upfront.

We wildly think of WWII beginning with the invasion of Poland, but it took months for everyone (England included) to realise it wasn’t a war between two countries.

Not to mention how WWI & WWII are basically the same war in two seemingly inevitable parts.

And we have had a ton of proxy and/or cold wars between Russia & USA since WWII ended.

Yeah, like which of the recent events will be in future textbooks as the trigger for WWIII, and how will it all lead back to WWI (like WWII is basically a direct consequence of conditions of pre-WWI and major events related to the war & post-war treaties - WWIII in this config is a consequence of WWI/WWII & the forced hegemony/colonialism of USA that followed).

… ok, but just for a sec, imagine the snoil looking & feeling around like snails do, then suddenly executing one is those elegant cat or dog jumps that they do jumping over a fence.

He planned it all!!

(Obliviously sarcasm, and the footage doesn’t show anyone jumping, but it would at least remotely and theoretically start to explain it, still how he could have done it without being stopped idk.)
