  • There is no objective truth. If you learn nothing else about life, learn that.

    There is what you believe the evidence points to being the most likely sequence of events. That’s it.

    Is it likely that Trump was the trigger to end a 40 year streak of presidents not having assassination attempts? Really? You don’t think every Snaggletooth with a gun in BFE Alabama actively planned to shoot Obama and would have at least made the news in an attempt? Is it really likely that the single most expense set of secret police in world history – a group of organizations with NO PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY and a history of human rights abuses worse than any other group in known world history, have failed multiple times to stop random kids with guns that magically fire the wrong caliber bullets?

    No. It’s not likely Americans magically grew a spine for Trump, who is just the average American President without an tact or competency for secrecy.

    What is likely is the WWE Superstar, whose only goal in life has been to be in Hollywood, has a stage director and keeps trying to garner sympathy with these fake attempts.





  • You would have to be literally insane to think the US, literally the personification of the western world representing all of the values, and frankly all of the power, of all European-founded nations that have existed for the last four millennia, is on the same side as Russia – who to be clear wants to be on the same side as Europe and the US but was roundly rejected after the fall of the USSR because of literal racism despite doing every single tiny thing every single western nation asked, much to their own damage; much less China who has been ostracized and victimized by the US and EU for longer than practically any other group.

    The US and EU have been the axis of evil in the world. The EU has killed more civilians than Nazi Germany with its wars and previous and continued occupation of ‘free’ nations (that cannot go against their owners’ orders without a military coup); and of course the US was the blue print for the nazis, quite famously even, and has killed so many more people around the world no intelligent person could possibly ever confuse them with ‘good,’ even in opposition to some mythologized evil.

    It is the US and EU vs the entire world, as it has been since 1945 when battle lines were drawn that if you were not in central Europe or North America, you were either an enemy or a victim.

    The EU can try to weasel their way out of the sinking ship now that the US is just open about everything they’re doing – and that is the only difference MAGA made, by the way, just that the US is too incompetent or uncaring to hide their atrocities – but ultimately there is too much blood staining the hands of every EU citizen to ever be allies with anyone but the US.

    At best they weaken themselves and make themself an enemy or a victim to the US, only one or the other exists to the US without the Eurosphere, and at worst they’ll be speaking Russian and dealing with unregulated capitalism by the end of the decade unless they start letting fly the nukes.

    China wants a ‘1st world nation’ QOL without exploitation for every citizen, and prioritizes that. Russia wants to enrich its upper class as much as possible, and doesn’t care if they step on EU toes to do so anymore since they WERE NOT REWARDED FOR DOING EVERYTHING THE WEST ASKED in the 1990s, and the US is the exact same as it has always been, except they ran out of victims in the Americas and aren’t being polite about their genocides anymore.

    Pick your poison EU.



  • Except that’s not freedom.

    It is not freedom to have a, and this really isn’t an exaggeration, more than 10,000x personal cost for transportation. It’s freedom for the rich, but the rich aren’t a part of society and cannot be generalized into society.

    It is not freedom to have to personally rely on the US to do the right thing.

    It is not freedom to take on the massive legal and financial risk that is driving a death machine.

    It is only freedom in the most infantile, ‘Anarkiddie’ sense of the word freedom. The ‘Hurr durr we’d all be more free if we had less laws’ kind of idiocracy most humans abandon by the age of 15 when they learn about the concept of government.





  • …it’s racist to say the East Turkistan movement, created in 1992 by the National Endowment for Democracy, a CIA front organization responsible for hundreds of propaganda outlets and colour revolutions across the many states of America’s and Israel’s enemies, is a terrorist movement, despite the fact it has been linked to more than a dozen instances of violence in Xinjiang, resulting in China’s investment in the region (and the accompanying very harsh treatment of all people in the region, not just the uyghur minority)?

    Or are you saying it’s racist to say Uyghurs in Turkey live objectively worse lives than those in Xinjiang? Because then you’d have to take that up with the world bank.

    Or are you saying it’s somehow a racist stereotype for Tibetans to be pedophiles? Because that’s just not true, it’s a documented historical fact that the Tibetan theocracy had child sex slaves, including the Lama at the time; if the Dalai Lama is reincarnated, then there’s at least 50 years there where it was documented that he explicitly raped children, regularly, and created an entire Priest class that had exclusive rights to whatever non-Priest-class children they wanted to fulfill their sexual desires. It’s one of the main reasons the civil war started; regardless of how you feel about China’s involvement after the civil war started – so it’s pretty clear that’s not a stereotype in any civilized land, just that Tibetan Buddhism is code for child sex.

    So I’m failing to understand what you think is racist about any of this, I suppose I’m saying.

    East Turkestan has never existed in history, and no natives on Xinjiang have ever expressed a desire for that to be brought into existence. Turkish Terrorists have though. Weird how Uyghurs in Turkey live a worse life in all respects than those in Xinjiang now though…

    Also No. They didn’t occupy Tibet, they freed it. But hey if you want to take the side of a child sex slave owning pedophile like the Dalai Lama…
