"The US creates poverty and chaos in other countries and then sounds the alarm over a “migrant crisis” as people flee those conditions it created. It’s like flooding the basement and then crying when the people who live there try to come upstairs."

Having worked with immigrants, I often wondered why they flee to the US when it is the US that has caused the majority of the problems in their country. Often times it's because they have no other choice--the countries surrounding their warzone have also been destroyed by American boycotts and coup d'etats and drug cartels as well. If the US wants the migrations to stop, then it'll need to stop ruining the lives and the countries of its neighbors.

Ukraine won't be like Iraq, Afghanistan or Libya, because this time the US has picked a fight with a peer adversary. The US has shown itself to be unprepared for real war in terms of its productive capacity.

All this talk about attacking China is reckless but also incredibly stupid, because China will react similarly to Russia, and if the US is fighting on two fronts it could get properly beaten, which is something it's never experienced before.
