And I am actually quite mad at Americans, that there are not millions of them on the streets every week.
It is shameful for a country that used to say authoritarian rule was impossible and it would never happen there.
Because exceptionalism? Just Hubris.

If the DEA had killed 80 innocent Americans in the course of apprehending one drug dealer, there would be riots. But we are so ghoulishly indifferent to the lives and humanity of people abroad that it's barely even part of the conversation.
A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

Actual Bible literacy? That will be the death of Christianity.
That book is full of contradictions in both testaments. It reveals their “loving” God as gaslighting, xenophobic and genocidal. It clearly is a product of violent and slave-holding people.
The few golden-rule parts cannot outweigh this.

No need to be confused. It’s called Dispensationalism.
He is pining for the Apocalypse.
Ted Cruz was taught in Sunday school, that for judgement day and Jesus’ second coming to occur, all Israel must be blessed and Jewish.
Good old religious fundamentalism.

Sure. This is JD Vance using Orban’s and European nationalist parties’ talking points in a US context.
It is also what is the core of the new US National Security Strategy’s criticism toward Europe, that Europe would lose its “western” character unless immigration into Europe was stopped.

I listened to @cnas.bsky.social Brussel’s Sprouts podcast on new US National Security Strategy.
Their analysis falls short in so many ways.
The NSS isn’t only “philosophical” it’s deeply ideological. Also it’s schizophrenic, with different sections contradicting each other. Why is Europe panicking?

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

This actually is the problem with “god”.
Everyone who’s told by their pastors etc. to “feel the holy spirit” or to listen to what “god” tells them in prayer is only having an inner monologue with their subconscious mind.
…because for Johnson or a jihadist it feels just as real as it feels for you.

The Americans she is talking to prefer a (to them) benevolent leader over a messy democracy and universal human rights.

It is also possible, that Trump will order the military to execute worse and worse strikes in the future.
On his path to turn the US into a Mafia state with nukes (like Russia), he is boiling the frog by making all military ranks more complicit and weed out dissent - before he drops the hammer.
