  • But Israel is not expanding into Iran or bombing civilian areas (yet)

    Israel literally bombed apartment complex with scientists as part of their unprovoked attacks.

    Best outcome here is the fall of Iranian islamic regime

    A change of regime in Iran is the wet dream of Netanyahu. Just this should tell you how bad of a thing it is.

    and people can take back their freedom

    You need to read a bit on Libya and Syria, the gracious interventions by the west did NOT result in a blossoming LGTPDASODNA+ democracy haven.

    25 years ago? The guy was wanted as a terrorist with a $10m bounty in 2017, the fuck you mean “25 years ago”. The bounty was rescinded because he overthrew a government seen as hostile by Israel and the US.

    Are you just ignoring the article I linked describing mass killings of Alawite? Are you trying to defend those guys?

    I don’t really feel like rehashing all the ways that the Iraq/Afghanistan war were disastrous

    training Syrian troops (who eventually did win) as a result of the Arab Spring and Assad gassing his own people which Obama did not start

    You need to read about Timber Sycamore. Assad did a lot of bad things, but it’s mental to imply that it was worth investing in Al-Qaeda affiliated militias to overthrow him. The new leader in Syria had a $10* million bounty on his head before rising to power in Syria, he is a leader of a splinter group of Al-Qaeda.

    The Assad overthrow is not the pure-wholesome western win that you think it is. Sectarian minorities have been ethnically cleansed by these Syrian rebels now in power.

    If you think that this is a success story from Obama’s admin, I’m afraid there’s no point discussing any longer.

    I would say Obama is even worse than Biden as a role model to glorify.

    You can draw a direct line between Obama’s fellating of wall street and the rise to power of MAGA. He was elected on a mandate to punish the bankers and utterly failed at this task, he failed to enshrine Roe Vs Wade, and started a few wars. Combine this with other events like the management of Bernie Sanders’ first attempt at the presidency, and you have a spectacularly inept democrat party that lost all credibility/appeal with swing voters.

    Taking the current politics at face value, Trump would have 0 appeal if the democrats had a reasonable management of the border, if the democrats had actual economic politics instead of identity politics and didn’t bend the knee to the military industrial complex as much as republicans did.

    Unfathomably based.

    Everyone should be outraged that Biden got to live old enough to be a dementia stricken cancer patient. The man is scum of the earth.

    Even democrats who support him should be mad: a prostate cancer is TRIVIALLY easy to detect, they must’ve known about this for years. And yet, they lied to their base to push that Joe Biden should run for presidency again.

    I would go as far as saying that we should group these two together in the “bad person” part of any meme

    Reagan might be the root cause for most if not all of the woes of the American political landscape. What I wouldn’t do to be able to deface his grave


  • I think that - on a global scale - a fair amount of people has cause to be grateful to Trump. Whether it’s intended or not, he’s tearing down the current geopolitical statu quo and waking up people politically.

    On the flipside, I do worry that we narrowly avoided the fire in order to stay in the pan, to subvert the old saying. Over in Canada, we reelected a party that has a lot of flaws, and that their defining benefit is “isn’t the conservative right”. I’m glad we avoided a conservative sweep, but let’s not pretend the shady opposition is significantly better.
