Trump got along a lot better with Putin than Biden does.

Have you noticed yet that Putin is this century’s version of Adolf Hitler and white nationalism. And you’re making a case that Trump got along with him and Joe Biden didn’t. Of course Trump and Putin got along - they’re both living in that white Christian nationalism fucked up world view that tend to lead to wars and genocide. You are kind of making Trump out to be the Neville Chamberlain of this global confrontation with an authoritarian dictator who is a thousand times more dangerous than Hitler was in 1939. I’ll to make hits against the current leader of a democratic republic that is forced to stand up against to Putin’s aggression against our European allies.

Are you opposed to assisting Ukraine?

Putin’s nuclear threats worked against Biden — we must act before China gets the same idea

There are many lessons from Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine. Among the most concerning is that nuclear coercion worked against the Biden administration.

nypost.com

There are many lessons from Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine. Among the most concerning is that nuclear coercion worked against the Biden administration. Lest Moscow inspire copycats in Beijing, Pyongyang and elsewhere, we must seek to devalue nuclear saber-rattling. If we do not, Beijing will surely resort to similar threats in its determined effort to incorporate Taiwan.

Russian officials threatened nuclear employment to pressure Kyiv and intimidate countries providing it support. In response, the Biden administration barred vital weapons and targeting assistance that it believed would risk escalation to “World War III.”

This was exactly the intent of Putin’s bullying. By ruling out reasonable support to help Ukraine launch a counteroffensive and perhaps achieve early victory, the Biden team gave Russia time to consolidate in the east and south, where it is now prevailing.

Rather than communicating resolve to demonstrate our nuclear deterrent in the face of Russian threats, the Biden administration canceled long-planned ballistic-missile tests and zeroed out funding for the nuclear sea-launched cruise missile, a move senior military leaders opposed. While the administration insists that its acts reflect the behavior of a “responsible” nuclear power, they have not impressed Putin — who in response went forward to test his own power. For someone who sees the world in terms of raw power, restraint looks like weakness.

Russia has been investing heavily in its nuclear forces for two decades, and China is rapidly expanding its nuclear arsenal — which the US Strategic Command chief has termed “breathtaking.” To make our deterrent more credible, we must be able to both punish the attacker through offensive retaliation and deny his objectives through active defenses.

No

No Obama opposed George Bush invading Iraq as did I.

The rest is history. The Sunni insurgents went on to form Al Qaeda in Iraq in 2004 (the CIA has stated there was no Al Qaeda presence before this, despite the president’s claims), which then morphed into the Islamic State (IS) after its leader Abu Musab Zarqawi was killed in the summer of 2006. When the U.S. pulled out its troops in December 2011 in fulfillment of President Bush’s December 2008 SOFA (Status of Forces Agreement) with the Iraqi government, the down-but-far-from-out IS insurgents took advantage of the American-installed, Shiite-dominated Iraqi government’s continued repression of disenfranchised Sunnis to regain momentum and recruits.​

Oh yes. The rich and powerful have the people right where they want them.

They have them voting, but the vote is easier to manipulate. Not through people voting twice and all that, but by spending lots of money, for advertising, for manipulation and all that.

They only need to manipulate small areas, and the largest two parties are always going to do better. Because you only need to win a majority in a small area.

Every system has things that could be better. Democracy has the uninformed voting. The reason China has grown so fast and India is still a poor country, is because Indian politicians are having to deal with democracy.

Big money corrupts because the system allows it to happen.

Imagine with PR, to corrupt you'd need to be manipulating millions of votes. With FPTP you only need to manipulate hundreds or a few thousand in some cases.

The US government has been corrupt forever. It's just now people expect it to be less corrupt. But there really isn't much desire to change things. People like having something to moan about
