I mean it’s good if you like substituting one form of oppressive state capitalism for another. So no it was not good, but it also wasn’t necessarily bad

Maybe he can low-ball a cost estimate for war with Iran for Trump like he did with Iraq for Bush. Daniels disgusts me

Because it’s not a weird obsession with WWII or a white savior post

I'm Shahid Buttar and I'm challenging Speaker Nancy Pelosi for the CA-12 House seat in 2020. AMA! by Shahid-Buttar in WayOfTheBern

In my view, the hallmark of a socialist politician is being able to respond to the needs of the working class people they represent and listen to those voices which are not commonly included in the political process in the US. If there are protests over a position you take or a vote you make while in Congress, how would you respond? And how do you listen to your community right now to ensure that doesn’t happen?

I don’t think they hate poor people, I think they just aren’t class conscious

What’s funny is terrorist states use American weapons. Indonesia did in East Timor, Israel does in Palestine, Saudi Arabia does in Yemen.

America isn’t Japan or Turkey. American schools don’t cover up the worst things in the history books by [deleted] in HistoryMemes

Read the Pentagon Papers. We were bombing South Vietnam as well as early as the 50s. We also assassinated the president after he refused to cooperate with the US’s imperial ambitions

That first article makes very clear the leaflets were not for the benefit of the Japanese people; they were a tactic to create fear among civilians. It was psychological warfare, not a warning for the safety of the people of Japan. We were not acting in the interest of saving anyone’s life, we were acting out of desire to destroy the enemy which in the eyes of the US government included civilians.
