  • I am neither Dem nor Trumpublican… without abolition of the more heinous party (GOP) through resistence from other non-fascists, we have no hope of improving. I am not a “we” with Dems. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Though, being forced to vote for a literal “lesser of two evils” does not remove the sidedly inaccurate notion that “getting us to play their game they win” isn’t BS. If you DON’T play, they win. Well-natured beliefs that “rising above pettiness wins” have continuously failed against their churlish word games. If they smirk and say “royal flush” while playing checkers, throw down an Uno reverse card. Fuck the game if rules only apply to some players. Acquiescence to GOP fuckery is weak.

    My gripe comes from that first part, where the latter I agree with. The countries at war are to blame moreso than the enablers and profiteers …Technically. I am not saying the US is innocent… but this isn’t the US “doing it” we’re aiding a crooked ally. I’ve read comments so often that seem to wholly blame the US. We’re a super easy target to criticize, thus my calling the first statement anti-US fluff. Even if I’m arguing semantics.

    No, political officials are enabling it. The majority of Americans do not support it, myself included. My initial point is that pointing the big fat finger at the US, while not mentioning the people LITERALLY killing eachother, is typical anti-US fluff. I get fed up with people doing that, even if I detest our involvement.

    What about this whole debacle ISN’T disheartening? Blaming the US, pointedly, for something we’re involved in IS moreso fluff… believe it or not, Isreal and Palestine are to blame. All other actors are just playing the same fucking role, as always, in the ever grinding meat-wheel of warfare. There are no “heartening” tales from this. I would LOVE to see the US have no involvement, for a change, but that’s not how “allies” work. Geopolitical fuckery will ever stand in the way of true peaceful avoidance for any country tied to ones at war.
