The US also spent heavily. I assume that was also to help its poorest citizens, right?

From Trump's twitter:

I have information that will lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton.

Did a liberal pumped full of msnbc great man theory just light the American reichstag fire, or was it a Trump supporter with terrible gun safety habits?

"Putin is gay and woke up one day and decided he would conquer Ukraine. There's really nothing else to know about this situation."

...most prominent opposition leader.

Doesn't the communist party there have a larger following?

Terrorism is actually not an ideology.

Germany needs to be abolished.

This shit is embarrassing. The dem leadership adults in the room don't have the courage, maturity, or intellectual honesty to tell the public that the cold war hysteria justifying the last century of American politics is entirely based on bullshit.

If they're willing to go along with something this stupid because they're afraid to lead, then it's not surprising at all that they're afraid to challenge the narrative around the migrant worker menace.

It goes without saying, they're never going to challenge capital, and if capital begins propagating a judeo bolshevik narrative, don't look to the dems for help.

I don't give a shit about tiktok, but these people are fucking children.

I'm a jew born in the US, but if I were asked to identify an ethnic homeland it would be Ukraine. I think that's true for a lot of Ashkenazi if they're being honest with themselves.

Edit: The Ukraine

Big news folks! You know who is dead.

For me, the greater takeaway was that none of our political leadership had the maturity or courage to say "we've been operating with some bullshit narratives, some of that is our fault, I know the news loves to stir up a good frenzy but this is just a weather balloon."

Instead, rather than challenge people to stop and think, they spent a week launching missiles at weather balloons. Truly jaw dropping (I'm desensitized to all of the violence they normally do). I'm a communist, so by definition I'm not one of the adults in the room, but at least I'm adult enough to tell the truth when I fuck up at work and just fix it.

That's the question they never answer. Once you acknowledge that the Ukrainian govt was literally waging war against an ethnic scapegoat and that the intention of NATO leadership is to absolutely pillage the people and natural resources of Russia, what was Russia supposed to do differently?
