Absolutely spot on and thank F'n gawd....
Of course it's not credible!!! I cannot believe people are buying this garbage π
Unfortunately throughout history subjugated peoples have produced shitbags who collaborated with their oppressors. Driven by power or perceived pragmatism doesn't matter, their real crime is conditioning a segment of Puerto Ricans that they are unworthy of autonomy π€·ββοΈ.
All we are is political fodder for these neolibs. They don't care about the lives of Puerto Ricans, they're thinking congressional majorities without understanding the issue.
Jack Schlossberg is a neoshitlib, what's with Democrats that can't give up dynasties, elitism and colonialism?
How white supremacist of you π
My wife was born and raised in Veneto, now a diehard Red Sox fan and she had no idea Italy had a national team.
Imagine if the despot subscribed to electric vehicles by encouraging automakers to invest even more resources and renewed tax rebates. But instead his war of choice is causing gas prices to skyrocket, this regime is beyond incompetent.
Ahh and there it is... And what exactly does radical islam produce, that radical Zionism or Christian nationalism doesn't? I'll give you a hint, all three are political movements which bear little resemblance to their respective faiths.
Um, except this has nothing to do with religion but everything to do with Americans' perception of Muslims being brown and Jews being white.
"Jews don't belong in American society."
Imagine a sitting member of Congress tweeting that. You can't. Thankfully, it'd never happen. And *if* it did, it'd be the end of their career and the biggest story in America.
But Ogles can say this about Muslims without any censure.
Atheists, like vegans and other reportedly self-realized individuals, can be sanctimonious AF. It ignores the long, rich tradition of radical left theology. "A Theology of Liberation" by Gustavo GutiΓ©rrez is still one of the best books I've ever read.
Statehood for Puerto Rico has always been a SCAM!!! PuΓ±eta, despierta Boricua y por favor apoyen a Juan y la Patria Nueva!
Came across your post, and I have a different take. I have a sister who's lived in Texas for 30 years, & I've pretty much avoided visiting. But also living in Massachusetts, I hear MAGAts here say how they are fighting to change this state, and my response is; over my dead body! It's all relative π€·ββοΈ.
Meh... I was a teenager when the hostages were taken. There was more anger after 9/11, but toward the wrong country. In the end, Americans are just freakin idiots.
41%???? π
βWeβre gonna unleash Chiang on these people in the next few hours and days,β Rubio said. The phrase [ ] dates to the Cold War, when it was a rallying cry for those who urged the United States to arm Chiang Kai-shek to retake China from the Communists." (NYT)
Tone deaf is putting this lightly π
Sure, some conjecture on my part but anecdotally there is no question that Vets lean far right. I think it was Pew who did a survey and found 60% + voted for Trump.
Trump GOES OFF on βTerribleβ Spain, Says US Can βJust Fly in and Use Their Basesβ Despite Their Refusal Mediaite
It's actually not surprising at all, once you understand Chomsky's ideology. He's always been anti-neoliberal and believes the path to worker self-management and government decentralization is through individual freedom and solidarity, even if that means right-wing populism.
The problem with this argument is that except for a few exceptions, those who join these empire enforcement organizations are brainwashed for life as nationalist minions for oligarchic autocrats. They may go in as destitute 17 year olds, theY come out as full fledged fascists (generally speaking).
Ugh... The other 30% is why this country is the way it is π.
Eh... I should just point out that the Iraq lesson should apply here. Killing is easy, nation building is close to impossible. It's the aftermath that's going to tear the region apart.
This was never going to be the hard part, US has never learned that nation building from abroad is impossible.
We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.
So... He's just a capitalist π€?
Imagine dying for an Epstein distraction π.
