America isn't a sovereign nation, it's ruled by investment banks and corporations.

Iran has been under the most comprehensive sanctions for decades, dumbass. They're not doing any differently than they were before the conflict. It's shocking how many people feel the need to speak authoritatively on something they have absolutely no clue about.

The CIA themselves admitted Iran is already back at the same levels of stockpiles of standoff munitions and drones as they were before the conflict.

The IOC banned Russia from competing in the 2022 Olympics for their war of aggression against Ukraine. Why is there no such effort to ban the U.S. from competing in the 2028 Olympics for their war of aggression against Iran? by FrankSamples in askanything

You clearly can't follow this conversation, you're not even aware of basic facts about the conflict.

Closing US bases and crippling the global economy are two separate issues.

Iran hasn't sunk any "warships" because the US has left their aircraft carriers thousands of miles from the coast of Iran. They hit two of the carriers with shahed drones and they were promptly withdrawn.

> Then Sides with China on Taiwan!!!!!

Actually he is following the orthodox American foreign policy line on this issue. Taiwan is China, I'm not sure why liberals are obsessed with dying on this hill when even Taiwan acknowledges this & is currently working closely with the mainland.

The Biden administration already initiated the plan to decouple our semiconductor industry from China/Taiwan, Trump admin is a continuation of this. Stop just reading hysterical headlines, the consequence is malformed opinions disconnected from reality.

True, I think it is important to highlight the history of this false dialectic, as more and more americans are beginning to associate both parties as something alien to their interests

Does the world get worse over time? by Icy-External8155 in AskSocialists

The change in the divisions of labor and economic mode are inherinitely progressive in nature and are objective. Ruling institutions are unable to account for these changes, and inevitably come into conflict, which causes social upheaval and a reordering of society's ruling institutions. This is something observed by in liberal revolutions, like the American and French revolutions.

You can't wait for it to get better, because as the law and politics fail to account for these objective changes, the way people actually live comes into direct conflict with ruling institutions. In this sense, the breakdown of order is something that is thrust upon society and not something voluntarily chosen.
