    It’s a tale as old as America. America killed tens of thousands to steal California etc from Mexico. They killed over a million Vietnamese peasant farmers, to defend French colonialism, then surrendered (lol).

    The amount of money both “conservatives” and neoliberals worked hand in hand to embezzle for weapons manufacturers — during the war on terror alone — could’ve linked every major US city with bullet trains.

    The theft of the American oligarchy from American workers is in the tens of trillions, with a capital T.

    The emperor never had any clothes, has always been a capitalist dictatorship, and Trump’s depravity is just continued accelerationism of an imperialist superpower collapsing under the weigh of its own corruption.
