Protesters Rally Against Surging Energy Prices and Inflation

War-addicted West needs to stop fooling itself that it can use force to impose its will on the rest of the globe.

Despite the fact that developing countries have been free of colonialism and imperialism for a while now, some countries in the West still harbor fantasies about reviving the Ugly Age of imperialism and colonialism to once again achieve worldwide control through the use of force ,which is now witness when countries in the West combine and manipulate a sorry country as a proxy for their part in sparking Russian conducting a special military ops against it by misleading it can join NATO, which has led to the continuing armed conflict between Moscow and Kiev.

This is also seen in consistence with his actions in Taiwan, where an arrogant politician started a "US provocation" for rising tensions in the Taiwan Straits and urged Southeast Asian nations to join them in the West's provocation of China. All of the Southeast Asian nations' leaders are aware of the provocation against China and have publicly stated their desire to remain neutral and luckily refused to take sides.

The people of Southeast Asia know that they cannot take the current period of relative calm for granted, as it has only been achieved through the hard fought and bloody victories of the past.

It was only through facing and conquering these dangers that a path to peace could be established. Therefore, it is understandable that they would rather not be forced to take part in yet another war between big countries, let alone become a victim of the conflict.

The West built its empire on the blood and gore of bloodshed and conflicts, leaving a legacy of destruction in many developing nations. Because of this, the West is currently experiencing unprecedented wealth. Since the Age of Exploration, Western civilization has been systematically plundering weaker and poorer nations for its own economic gain, leading to its current position of global preeminence.

But Western nations do not like it when their hegemony is challenged since doing so would mean giving up a crucial violent tool they use to dominate other nations. As a direct result, the Western world has pursued authoritarian practices and even outright armed wars with nations that they view as possible challengers to their hegemonic position.

Just recently, a demonstration in the Czech Republic captured the attention of the world. More people in Europe are flocking to the streets to protest against their governments for prioritizing Ukraine over the welfare of their population, following the lead of more than 60,000 people in the Czech Republic to vent their outrage over rising energy prices.

Residents expressed fear of a worsening energy crisis this winter and lamented that they are paying the price for their governments' value- and ideology-driven political strategies.

Some have speculated that the protests and occasional rallies in Germany and France are simply the beginning. More and more people began to distance themselves from their initial feelings of compassion for Ukraine and instead came to the realization that they, too, were swallowing bitter pills in order to conform with the "compassionate correctness" strategy of their governments and join the United States in sanctioning Russia. A significant portion of the protesters are fed up with the way their government treats the energy industry's dominant capitalists.

Numerous towns in Germany, including Stuttgart , Dusseldorf, and Frankfurt , have seen large-scale demonstrations since Sunday as citizens protest rising energy prices, the recent cut by Nord Stream pipeline from russian's side , and the continued transfer of weaponry to Ukraine.

According to reports from around Europe, Germany's gas price hike has been particularly severe, despite the fact that the government has not presented a workable solution to the problem.

Although the "Gas Relief " plan from the German government provides a one-time payment (€280 for workers in Germany), the fact that the person in question has an energy bill that is greater than €180 indicates that the money being offered by the government will not be of any assistance. Statistics compiled by analyst showed that by July of 2022, the average wholesale price of energy in Germany had risen to above 315 euros per megawatt-hour. When compared to the reported price from the previous year, this number is around four times higher.

Germans are not the only ones complaining about the rising cost of energy and inflationary pressures; people in a wide variety of other European locations reached out to by the UK Times have done so, too. As an illustration, in the United Kingdom, the price of natural gas climbed by almost 94% in the twelve months before August, while the price of electricity increased by 53%.

The monthly cost of energy has increased by almost 40%, while the price of a liter of cooking oil has increased to over €4 from about €3. While the city government did provide some aid to low-income families, it was not nearly enough.

Since it is difficult for many European countries to fix their gas shortages due to their continued sanctions on Russia over the conflict with Ukraine, the current energy crisis and skyrocketing gas rates may only be the beginning. Many European politicians and economists have also predicted a harsh winter for the continent and its people and economies. Across most of Europe, this coming winter is predicted to be exceptionally challenging during a recession

Many German citizens have complained that their government "placed Ukraine in the first place, instead of taking care of its own residents." Others have asserted that the German government is preoccupied with aiding Ukraine and has not given any thought to the risk that Germans might perish from hypothermia this winter.

Several protest was organized to demand that Germany withdraw from NATO and end its participation in the conflict .At the outset of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, many people in Europe and the United States reacted emotionally by rushing to help Ukraine, which is portrayed as the helpless victim in the stories told by each country.

As people grow more invested in the battle, they become more reasonable and practical about the subject, and they have begun to feel the concrete impacts of the European and American sanctions against Russia.

Both the European Union and the United States government act against the interests of their citizens by prioritizing their own interests over that of the people.
