This is *exactly* what was said about Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria. War propaganda never, ever changes, no matter how discredited it gets: - If you oppose the war in Iraq, you don't care about Iraqis. - If you oppose war in Iran, you don't care about Iranians.

I agree with most of what you just laid out. The U.S. is not a real democracy in any meaningful sense. It is a managed duopoly with elections as a pressure valve and a brand asset. I am not naïve about that. Two parties owned by the same class. Primaries as theatre.

NATO started World War III by turning Ukraine into a proxy to wage war against Russia — using Ukrainians as cannon fodder — with the complicity of quislings like Zelensky.

"The IDF delivered over 60 boxes to Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza...each one contained a skull of a Palestinian who had been killed" - The EU refuses to designate the IDF a Terrorist Organisation but found time to designate the IRGC, how pathetic are our Political Elite...?

If a US official said this about literally any other country -- the military of Country X is more moral than the US military -- they would be instantly fired and their career permanently destroyed. But it's not only acceptable to say this about Israel, but almost obligatory:

I want to be very clear about something first: You are not the person I am arguing against here. You are one of the very few people inside the core who actually looks at the structure, the culture, the propaganda, the predator class and says: "This is what it is. And I am not

Glenn Greenwald: 'Every time the U.S. Government is gearing up for a new war, it assures Americans that the war will free the oppressed peoples of that country from their never-before-seen evil dictators, so everyone can feel good about the bombs falling and the resulting

This wholly disingenuous Sadiq. You've ignored the fact that the war would never have started had NATO not rejected out of hand Russia's draft treaty to make Ukraine a neutral country and stop NATO expansion. Why does NATO even still exist? It should"ve been dismantled when the

BREAKING: The UK and France are preparing to provide Ukraine with nuclear weapons, according to Russia's Intel. The goal is to give Zelensky "leverage" for favorable peace terms. Are Western elites losing their mind?

Israel killed JFK to get nukes. Not Iran Israel stole several hundred pounds of highly enriched uranium from U.S. Not Iran Israel stole other nuclear secrets and components from us to build their bombs. Not Iran Israel refuses to sign the Nuclear Non- Proliferiation Treaty.

No bro this US war in the middle east will be completely different, bro. See, this time the regime we're trying to get rid of is REALLY BAD! No no, this is nothing like all those other times. This time military interventionism to topple an oil-rich government in west Asia will

This WaPo article is unreal: they unironically mock China for not being imperialist and failing to use force to defend its interests, arguing that they're losing out to the U.S. (in Venezuela, Panama, etc.) which does precisely that. In essence the article can be summarized as:

You cannot help people who think accountability is unpatriotic. Who think questioning power is betrayal. Who think learning history is "hating their country." What do you do with a public that takes any attempt at truth as a personal insult? At some point, you stop trying to

Jeffrey Sachs: Iran never wanted nukes. The UN-backed JCPOA enforced strict monitoring. Then Trump, acting as a pawn of Netanyahu, ripped it up. This was never about nukes, it’s about Israel seeking regional hegemony and toppling the Iranian regime. The U.S. has no interest

You’re already ahead of most people because you’ve stopped saying "not all of us are like that" and started asking "so what do I do?" That shift alone is not nothing. You’re right about one thing: America, as a project, is a lost cause. But Americans as human beings are not.
