Im in my late 40s, and im just flashing back to every ‘justified’ regime change and invasion for decades, every ‘weapons of mass destruction’ lie, every ‘evil communists’ trope bought and sold by politicians, journalists and people, and all the incredible suffering that followed

if you are talking today about how bad maduro was and were alive, at all, during the run-up to the iraq war you are potentially the dumbest person to ever live

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

I remember when millions were in the streets in the run-up to the invasion of Iraq. I was one of them. Sadly, although I applaud their efforts, I am far, far too jaded to join them. It's truly depressing as fuck to realize you have zero influence over what your government does in your name.
Happening now: several hundred people are pouring into Chicago's downtown Federal Plaza.
It's 25 degrees outside.
Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!"
Two protesters hold a large banner reading, "no war for Venezuela oil."

Truly the sheer level of ignorance of our long and storied history on display is staggering
The only thing remarkable about trump is that he does these things openly and without pretext.
He\Biden are the avatar embodiments of this country — mediocre racist old white men; liars, cheats, and bullies

Bit weird to see people reacting as though America hasn’t pretty consistently always been a lawless colonial cowboy warmongering state.

We will either end fossil fuel dependency and the predatory extractivist basis of global production, or they will end us through wars and ecological collapse - all at the same time.

If any country's leader should be deposed and put on trial, it's Donald Trump. The accusations against Maduro are ridiculous. The supposed "drug cartel" he allegedly leads doesn't even exist. This is about US companies stealing Venezuela's oil.

Pretty sure the US has been a violent rogue state for decades.
Trump is just ripping the mask off and not bothering to hide it.

Trump voters have turned the most powerful country in the world - the longtime leader of the democratic West - into a violent rogue state.
In doing so, they have smashed any semblance of international law and order.
This ‘might is right’ world MAGA have inflicted upon us endangers all of humanity.

I do absolutely adore Mister Wilfred.
Do adopt older cats.
They're often left alone in the shelters. They don't understand why their previous people couldn't stay with them. And then they're alone in a place full of noise and other cats.
Yet they make the best pets when you adopt them.

A functioning Congress will have articles of impeachment drafted by the end of the day.
Our Congress will just go to social media to basically say “We don’t like this, but what are you gonna do?”

The way libs have turned Dearborn into a racial slur is really confirming my theory that the Harris campaign alienated Muslim voters on purpose because their internal polling showed them losing and they wanted a minority to blame for their loss.

VOTE! Vote for...uh...the people who are meekly allowing all this to happen because they're on the same payroll as the people who are doing it.
Sure. That'll fix things.

Take this anger with you into doing what we can. Speak out against whats going on, don't be silent. And don't you dare abstain from voting. We know they want to undermine the way our system works but we can and WILL vote these people out. Make it by a wide margin. Do all you can to fight.
