I'm appalled by the fact that no journalists report the deployment of Minnesota National Guards the same way as one'd framed June 4, 1989 as an attack by authoritarianism on democracy and freedom. (I dont share the same valuee as the students who marched towards Beijing chanting the Internationale)

No, seriously, where are the "staged coup" experts? They can't be this bad right? Claiming it was staged when it isn't, when it is actually coordinated from within Maduro's administration, the so-called "experts" shut the hole in their face.

Why is the mass media asking "legality" of international relations? Have they read anything from Mearsheimer and Walt? Oh wait, they were probably the ones who came up with terms like "hybrid warfare".

Let me get this straight, campaigns on"pro-life", and tell Epstein rape victims to get an abortion. They say they will create jobs, then funnel money into "AI" and cut jobs. They say MAGA, it's essentially market manipulation, wealth redistribution. You need a low IQ population to achieve this.

Nobody wants to poke the eyes of the so-called "PhDs", but often when they don't have any data or methods to explain a phenomenal, they go below than picking some low hanging fruits - bend history so they can be "correct", not sure if it's an ego thing or the "experts" are too lazy to roast them.
Man who starts war with the a coalition featuring endless manpower, unlimited manufacturing capacity, and control of all the world’s communication lanes which ends in the complete destruction of his country. Genius indeed.
