@WLGarner_Author@OhHowByronic Peace from what? Low energy costs? The bases in Europe exist for one purpose: the power projection of the US empire. There is no regional or global threat to Europe that it canโt handle itself. And most of its current ones disappear with the bases.
@WLGarner_Author@OhHowByronic The immigration crisis? US foreign policy. Ukraine War? US state department. Iraq war? US. Afghanistan? US. ISIS. US. Gulf of Hormuz? US . Nordstrom? US. Energy costs? See Ukraine and Hormuz. Running out of room the Pax Americana is propaganda. 250 years old and only 20 at peace.
@leylahamed@AssalRad The whole thing is a farce. Neither the US or Israel should be allowed to compete. Yet the US is hosting the damn thing. FIFA is a total disgrace.
@DissidentScot@Ryanmatta Americans are the most propagandized people on earth. They worship the militarized police who exist at their expense and they cheer when the authorities over reach. And ironically the Americans with the most guns are the most docile and malleable.
@ProudSocialist California is the most fiercely Capitalist and Darwinian state in the Union. The far Right just gets confused by the rhetoric. Theyโll mention the environment But theyโre not giving up the Range Rovers or jets. Everything from single payer to high speed rail goes to CA to die.
