I think you may need to calm down a little. This theatrictal outrage over a single man murdered is just an emotional venting mechanism for people who ...
Oh heavens no. I'd be sharing pictures of the Trumper standing in for Jesus. Guy did everything right to get himself unjustly shot - what unparalleled...
I get it, though. Ya'll are needing to vent your outrage on someone, so need to misconstrue the position of the first person who doesn't join in the h...
I'm not defending state power. Just stating the obvious. If you think the state and its various agents are incompetent, corrupt nazis, etc. all the mo...
The guy resisted arrest, obviously - a pretty fucking dumb thing to do. Getting maced was his queue to lie down and live another day, but alas. Anyway...
Trump works for the various lobbies and special interest groups that control Washington. If you want to keep falling for Trump's 'rage baiting' then b...
Look, I'm sure there's some truth in your post, but this is fundamentally not how I view Trump (or any US president, for that matter). To me, Trump is...
Sovereign American military bases that Greenland will have no say over is what is on the table - obviously the preamble to an inevitable full incorpor...
Respect has nothing to do with it. Trump is Washington's clown, and nations who take him seriously make themselves part of his circus; the Europeans f...
I think it has nothing to do with Trump 'caving'. He said a couple things (which he does all the time and costs him nothing) and managed to create pan...
You're not wrong, but well... https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirbq6UlWlOy6n3PM6KUizapUY43qmfykKyQKqJEU7YPxL6s8Tte5tO81pqaoV...
I hardly factor it into my analysis because it is unlikely to have a significant impact, for three reasons: The first is that presidents are temporary...
I don't pay particular attention to anything Trump says or does. It's a waste of time - polarizing bullshit meant to elicit an emotional response whet...
A waste of time, why? They keep being right about things. Put their viewpoints next to the ones you've been spoonfed by the mainstream media over the ...
US domestic policy is the kool-aid I was referring to. It's pure comedy. I don't take that shit seriously. The US is ran by a uniparty in all ways tha...
Unpredictability can be a great boon in geopolitics. There was a brief period during which I thought Trump might go against the establishment, but alm...
Trump is merely a vessel through which the US is able to enact what it deems necessary but controversial policies while maintaining a semblance of pla...
The 'relation' (if such a thing even exists) between Trump and Putin has little to do with it. Russia is a critical link in China's security strategy,...
Canada is integrated into the alliance structure the US cares most deeply about: the Anglosphere, which consists of the US, UK, Canada, Australia and ...
The US is anticipating/deliberately causing a US-EU split - something which won't happen with Canada. That's the difference. They don't want Greenland...
Well, it's definitely happening. Even Reuters is already working hard to warm people up to the idea: Denmark's Greenland Dilemma: Defending a territor...
Looks like Iran is about to pop off as well. Several analysts have already predicted that something was about to happen in Iran. , perhaps it would be...
That doesn't sound different at all. That's US foreign policy in a nutshell. Except they didn't call it plundering before, but "spreading democracy an...
A recent podcast with Jeffrey Sachs which I would highly recommend watching in full: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_2L9R2x8xY And this one too, wit...
After Venezuela it has become a lot more likely, because: - The US is showing clear commitment to enforcing the Monroe Doctrine (aka domination of the...
The words of these think-tanks are worth about as much as the words from the White House itself, and this is how they always operate. In 20 years we'l...
A lot of open doors being kicked in and unremarkable conclusions being drawn. None of them particularly offensive, but from a team of 12 experts I wou...
I'm not gonna argue with that. :lol: Yeah, the optics of this are bad to put it mildly, and apparently now there's talk of a second attack on Venezuel...
I take issue with the constant mentioning of Trump because this isn't about Trump. It's about the US doing the things the US has always done: carrying...
Anyone who thinks this is some Trump plan must be high off their rocker. This is clearly the tried-and-true Monroe doctrine in action, which basically...
Keep in mind this is not just my personal hypothesis. Military academic circles have been openly discussing maritime blockades on China for over a dec...
As we have establised earlier, this is where our views differ the most. US global dominance was established as a result of WW2, and my sense is that t...
I think that is best left up to countries themselves. What we have with the EU is a typical 'one size fits none'. Besides, I think by now it is corrup...
What Europe needs is a NATO without the US, and subsequently to dissolve the European Union. That way countries can run their own affairs as they have...
