America's support for genocide isn't an accident. It isn't an anolomy. It's what America always does. It's what the system was built on.
Look at the size of America's military. Look at the size of America's wealth. Look at who benefits.
If you defend capitalism, you defend that.
It’s a real quote, but it’s taken out of context.
The CEO was making the point that the municipal water supply should be priced to reduce water wastage, which does have merit (and most municipalities do price water). He was saying that people who oppose water pricing do so on the grounds that water is a human right, which he called an extreme position.
He never actually said that water isn’t a human right, just that he thinks making water free because it’s a human right is an “extreme position”. He later clarified that he believes having enough water to live is a human right, but beyond that, filling up a swimming pool is not a human right.
He was making this argument in the context of arguing for the privatization of the municipal water supply, which I do not agree with. But I don’t think he’s wrong to argue for water pricing.
