      Right. It’s like idiots in the thread are reading it backwards or something. The fact that a banana can be purchased anywhere in the world for an excessively low price, any time of year, shows the level of subjugation used to farm the bananas and harvest them in the first place is the benefit. Labor intensive sensitive crop grown in south and Central America by workers compensated very little for their work, and then treated far less than equitably in most other ways, (banana wars). The point of the tweet is that fucking everything the dumbass eating the banana has ever touched is more than likely proof that imperialism has benefitted him.
