Just reading reviews of the movie "Oppenheimer" on Consortium, which reminded me of my 5 or 6 y-o self huddling under my desk in first grade. And now, considering this ongoing appointment of war criminals by Biden, our war-criminal-in-chief, it all struck me as theater because it would seem that the US govt. uses Nuland and these other well-known sociopaths as another saber-rattling tool in its ongoing and continual declaration of exceptionalist supremacy. So I've been living within the Theater of the Mushroom Cloud for my entire life. The irony is that one can't walk out of this performance without looking out over the "real world" for the materialization of that cloud, engendered by the massively corrupt performance venue of the US duopoly politics.

"... Nuland and these other well-known sociopaths ..." - note also that it's women and minorities that are being promoted aggressively throughout the western world.

I consider that another tool of the system - elevate those slices who are more difficult to criticize, and from those choose the ones who will be overly eager to prove they can do as well or better than any old white man.

“…more difficult to criticize.” That’s right. Because you have to find a way to criticize them without letting you hatred and phobia’s about women and minorities show thru in your opinions. Just like we do for white men. If criticize a white guy showing the contempt I have for them as a patriarchy, I get the most hair-on-fire responses!!!! Ooooooo, not all men are like that. Ooooo, you can’t use a body part to refer to men! Oooooo, it has nothing to do with being Jewish. On and on. I have to choose my words very carefully and only focus on their egregious behavior, never in their class or gender. You’re just losing your privilege that’s all. Your privilege of smearing marginalized groups with a few malignant tropes and no actual facts about their behavior. But now you have to think before you snark, and o dear. It’s “difficult” you whine. Grow up.

The trend to elevate black/brown faces and women to carry out the dictates of empire, seem to have accelerated, but it was always thus. Franz Fanon spoke of " black faces, white masks" in the then French colony of Algeria. The white imperialists when they left their colonies left a collaborator class in place. It is nakedly obvious in the US empire's weaponising of minorities in the so called "colour revolutions" and feminism. We see those faces not only in the US administration, but in academia. In the UK while short sighted British Indians exult in Sunak being the Prime Minister he does a better job of serving the empire than any white imperialist.

Women have always tended to be the ones in the role of making the puppets that allow man's ideals to appear real, and not just in Western history. This "meek woman" bullshit is nothing more than a particular moment of desert religious idiocy.

Since I've been looking into the trans movement, I'm becoming aware that many of the "women" in high level positions are actually trans-men. Giving women the illusion that they have made progress.

Sorry, women have to accept the fact that many of their gender are badasses. Calling the badasses “trans-men”is a weak and sexist cop out.

I consider myself a badass; roughneck, muleskinner, cowgirl and mayor, etc.. But in my 71 years of living in various states, countries and different jobs, positions and meeting a lot of women, I never knew any that were warmongers. That requires a very "special" training and indoctrination that is not particular to women at all.

Expand full comment

One way or another, some women acquire aggressive traits and become warmongers. The same is true for men. And it is undeniably true that aggressive people of any gender tend to rise to positions of power where their warmongering instincts can have terrible consequences. In recent years, an increasing number of women have been able to follow that path.

The Nulands and Thatchers of the world are hardly "badasses". More like "chichenhawks".

The average frustrated African market woman is more of a badass, all day, every day, lest she be eaten alive.

Expand full comment

So how do you define “badass?” I don’t care to parse the meaning of that particular word, but I must point out that you are definitely wrong about “chickenhawks.” A chickenhawk is someone who avoided fighting in a war that he supported but later in life had the power to manufacture or advocate for a war that other people would have to fight. Nuland and Thatcher, by that definition, are not chickenhawks. They are flat out warmongers and, I might add, sociopaths.

It doesn't really matter as long as they can hide behind their "womanness". There are women with masculine tendencies as well as men with feminine ones, naturally. Whether it's a trans-something or a masculine woman makes a difference only nominally.

If a country like the USA can assassinate a President and his brother so easily, with the connivance of senior government departments like the CIA, Jewish gangsters, ambitious politicians and Israeli Neocons, how come the growing list of Biden's senior appointees filling the highest positions in the land, with their total and undisputed allegiance not to America but to Israel, can walk the streets free from harm.

It is really time to show Netanyahu and his growing collection of arrogant Israeli Neocons appointed by the world's #1 Israeli stooge, Biden by name, all posing as loyal Americans, that decent Americans in a once far more decent country than today want to clean the ranks of disloyal traitors. Remember the days of McCarthy in the 1950's, with Communists being the target then? Compared to Neocons, Communists were 'babes in the woods’. Can you imagine a Senate Investigation today with far more than half the Senate openly aligned with Israel and its generous financial electoral support, all avoiding the antiSemitism label and dancing to the Israel beat……in everything. A joke if it wasn’t so serious.

If not this year, then sooner or later, the realisation by decent Americans as to where their dangerous Biden-appointed enemies really dwell, brazenly on American soil, in very senior positions, all working daily against the USA to control the world as part of the self-styled "chosen people”.

A previous Israel Prime Minister said “We own America”. You now have the Netanyhu nasties, alive, very active and flourishing under every rock in 2023, running major government policies with an absolute Israeli emphasis, 330 million Americans led by the nose by 9 million Israelis.

Offensive comment? Perhaps, but you know this is the realty of today’s problems in the USA.

Get your country back, back into the hands of real loyal Americans. There are probably over 310 million of them, many also decent Jewish people who now see corrupt and apartheid Israel for what it has been allowed to become by a toothless UN and a corrupted USA political system.

This has to be the longest 4 years of an administration that I can recall.

With a year left, there won't be anything remaining by the time the next administration takes power.

The U.S. has now destabilized Eastern Europe. The Middle East is thrown up in the air once again with the loss of Saudi Arabia as a ally. Don't think that Israel is forgotten as Saudi Arabia and Iran formalized relations. We'll soon be embroiled in sorting out that quagmire. And we're working hard to shatter Southeast Asia.

Remember also, there is no cavalry coming regardless of which party comes into power. People like McConnell and Lindsey Graham haven't gone away. They've just been told to sit down and shut up while the Democrats hang themselves. But a change of administration cannot look much different now that the world has been shaken to its core with our hegemonic policies.

Just because Jim Jordan and House Republicans are championing free speech doesn't mean that their own neocons have ceased to exist.

Congress is all on the take, and no-one is going to be willing to give up their gravy train for the sake of world peace.

The terms Progressive, Justice, Peace, Economy have all been leveraged. The average American and former Middle Class are gone, and with the prospect of cities flooded with homeless and immigrants, no bloc of American Society will be in favor of domestic social programs when it simply means to them that tax money is going to go to illegals.

Even someone as genuine as RFK Jr. would have an uphill climb to unseat our current state of corruption. There is no-one left to partner with when dark money has captured even the most stalwart.

As I said, by the time the next election cycle is complete, I fear there will be nothing left to save.

Nuland just insures that there is no probable outcome to Ukraine that doesn't have the conflict erupting into World War III.

Wherever you find yourself right now, you may want to settle in because the next year and a half is going to look like hell.

“…. The U.S. has now destabilized Eastern Europe….” And kiss and hold your young Reservist. They are about to go overseas and likely will not be coming back...”

Dear friend, no it’s rather different than this.

The US has destabilised ALL of Europe, formerly a largely demilitarised region post WWII, focusing on social development and peaceful trade - but which is the US has now thrown into economic disarray, while committed to accumulating ever increasing amounts of weapons. And if you understand history then you know that everything the Europeans start building armies and stockpiling weapons and hatred, well they eventually turn on EACH OTHER.

Furthermore Uncle SAM via the Rand Corp, has very well understood only one history lesson, which is that their adventures in ravaging Vietnam were sabotaged mainly by body bags coming home. SO they wont be sending any US reservists and they went be drafting any US kids. They have co-opted Europe’s poorest nation full of meatheads and have shoved the young men of that nation into a death machine, with Poland lined up as next victim already. After that will be Lithuania, Latvia, and then Germany, Uk and the scandie suckers. No US youth will be sent there that dont volunteer.

Note that many of the above mentioned nations have a policy of drafting BOTH genders into universal compulsory military service, so basically here it will be a genocide across Europe, because there wont be many young women of prime childbearing age left by the time the ghouls of DC/Langley are done with their plans for Europe.

You'll get no argument from me - all completely feasible. And yes, I didn't mean to indicate that we didn't fuck up all of Europe. I believe I did see a report last week that Biden had ordered the call-up of hundreds of thousands of reservists. I assumed they were going in for NATO support.

All the learned dissections and discussions and expostulations and conversations in the universe cannot, IMO, change the fact that the Dems are using war and abortion and LBGTQ(etc.) as campaign items for 2024. And that is literally all the Democratic Party cares about - the election in 2024. Those issues mean nothing to them except as campaign rhetoric and fundraising tools. Literally everything is viewed through that lens and acted upon in service to that cause.

Horrendously, IMO, our government is also infested with power-hungry warmongers who have access to unlimited money and who need not have any worries about what "citizens" think at all. They would throw US men and boys into the same meat grinder that they are throwing the Ukrainians into. They may yet do that, in order to keep the blood and money flowing until the 2024 elections, and this, no matter which of our "choices" wins, will continue.

Zelensky, with the assistance or guidance of the warmongers, will keep enlarging that Overton window until, I believe, it will only be up to Putin (and/or China) to not let the nuclear missiles fly. Honestly, I think the Overton window is just a panoramic 360 view now.

Yeah, that's bleak, But I see "news commentators" and politicans drone on about how of course this war must continue until the 2024 elections, and I see how the GOP is just as bloodthirsty, and that is how I feel. And for those who seek to discredit by demanding that anyone who states a problem must also have a solution - y'all better hope it is not up to only me to yell "Look out! There is a large angry carnivore about to jump on you!", because I doubt I will have a solution like, say, a gun, in order to solve your problem.

At what point will unquestioning Americans notice a trend that has been evident throughout their lives? Government and media talking heads repeat ad nauseam that peace is why we fight.

They want peace, they really, really want peace...but nefarious forces are conspiring to force us to “defend” our interests, which are defined as ANYTHING that requires massive investments in our military.

Russian sovereignty is threatening American security interests! Putin is Hitler’s illegitimate son!

China is acting like the South China Sea is essential to its national defense! Communist misdirection! Those godless commies are congesting the South China Sea with warships to create a pretext for invading Taiwan! It’s obvious to anyone not brainwashed by CCP propaganda!

The question of American tacit approval of imperial global recklessness probably has a number of artistic representations. This is one that has spoken to me since I first heard it, even though I cannot argue that it was the writer’s intended meaning:

The path is clear

Though no eyes can see

The course laid down long before.

Actually, that’s not true anymore. Recruitment is way down, the living conditions and lack of pay are the primary sited reasons. That’s why the recruiters are forcing their way into poorer schools, (just like the NFL used to do) to grab kids early and often. Fortunately, now that poor schools have been forced to hire those minorities (the ones people on here decry because they are so difficult to criticize) there is pushback on the recruitment of 16 year olds. Every little bit helps. What are you doing?

I couldn’t agree more. All patriarchal theories have been and are being discredited. But in the process of that demolition, the bricks are falling on the heads of the halt and lame, the wounded and impoverished, the helpless and hapless. It’s incumbent upon those of us with enough leisure to sit arguing on a computer to DO something. And voting does work, here and there, in small but increasing doses. And the thing that Emma Goldman missed is that voting WAS illegal. That’s what Dr. King was all about. That’s why the voting rights act was demolished. That’s what the proprietary voting machines are about. We should be looking around and saying, voting actually does seem to work, look how hard they try to suppress it.

I wouldn't take it personally if I were you. It's nothing more than a statistic which you don't fall into like myself. What jeano doesn't point out is that it's the over 70 age group who are still in control

and have brought us to where we are. There is a sharp division of the have and the have nots at about 70.years of age. The system was established under Reagan for the wealthy and has been maintained ever since by those who remained in power. Voting was pointless because your only choice in candidates were the "lesser of two evils" or throw away your vote on a write in. Trying to work within the system you were ignored or persecuted. Real change was impossible and still is to this day. I'm not sure how Jeano can ignore who we were given and about to be given to elect along with the ages of those in control of Congress. Any time I've had a comment to the over 70 age group they point the finger at me and tell me it's all my fault, as they screwed me out of money they owed me. They are overall morally and ethically bankrupt but have lots of money in the bank which they won't part with. "What's mine is mine and what's yours is mine." is their motto.

They refuse to take any responsibility or criticism. In the end it's a race between those in control dying off so real change can be made or the planet being destroyed. And as a final note - yes there are people in power under 70 but they were selected because they fit the mold of the current system.

Whenever the subject of Biden comes up, to me the subject of his being president in the first place overrides every other consideration. As in, how does it happen that the president of a country while president of the country made a video bragging that as a vice-president he leveraged a half billion dollar loan to Ukraine against the appointment of a judge who wanted to investigate his dope addicted son's controversial and very lucrative, self-interests with a controversial oil company, Burisma, and in fact had the prosecutor in question, Shokin, fired? Isn't that - influence peddling? Intimidation of a foreign government for personal gain? Doesn't it involve criminal overriding of a crime after the fact?
