    I think the dark truth underpinning geopolitics right now is that a 3rd world war needs to happen, and Israel, America, and Russia all need to lose in it.

    We let Trump lead us down too many dark alleys and now we are part of this new global axis of evil.

    The bad guys need to get their asses kicked so we can start the cycle over and in another 100 years we end up right back in hell, needing to purge evil from seats of power again.

    Imagine if we stopped the cycle after this one…

      Counter point: no.

      We don’t need a war for that. Least of which a world war. If you want a war, you can keep it on your own property. Don’t let it spread to my peaceful corner of the planet.

      I’m not putting money on a no-war outcome, but I still think it’s preferable. There’s a small group of ultra rich people, who’ll only grow stronger with war. It’s that exact group that need to know fear. And that group of western oligarchs doesn’t include innocent bystanders.

      Who do you think is going to do the ass kicking? American isn’t Nazi Germany - they didn’t come to facism through calamity and poverty. The US got there through wealth concentration, scapegoating, and cumulative cultural rot. But the US is also coming to facism from a position of immense wealth and power. Nobody is coming to save the US from themselves, because no one else can.
