    Love AOC adopting the tried and true liberal technique of mystification.
     
  2. Weird article. The premise is that Iran hates America for reasons other than the 53 coup and hostility to the revolution.

    "The recurrent reference to the 1953 coup by Iranian diplomats serves their anti-American rhetoric, allowing them to portray their military and political intrusions in Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen as part of a legitimate “axis of resistance” against American imperialism."

    If the Islamic Republic had come to power peacefully and with full American support, it would still be correct to oppose American imperialism and the axis of resistance would still be legitimate and the most important anti-imperialist force in the world right now. The history is really interesting but the conclusions make no sense to me

    I'm pretty sure you just yell "CEASE FIRE!" very loudly like Michael declaring bankruptcy on The Office

    Is the implication being that they probably knew it was coming and didn't bother to try and stop it?

    Love that the Biden administration just let the Fed walk all over them with zero pushback.

    this is a very good read

    sheds some light on how you're not going to be able to successfully browbeat voters into voting for the "lesser of two evils" when they just see the two options as slightly different evils

    also one of the only things I have read post-election that gives me even a little bit of hope

    These numbers don’t mean a ton to me, I’m more interested in how it played out across education levels.

    I think that many people don't believe that our institutions can help them, but also don't think that our institutions will work to actively harm them either.

    Rupar has to be secretly happy Trump didn’t get crushed because endlessly covering Trump and maga is his entire career. One of the benefits of trump losing would have been Rupar finally becoming as irrelevant as he deserves to be. Now we’re stuck with the Zionist dipshit
