  1. @Benjamin Figgins : The U.S. has abandoned innumerable proxies in the past, when it suited the U.S. elites. Trump's not a member of that club. He just looks at it and doesn't think using proxies for regime change is cool. Most people don't remember the shit that went on in Africa in the '60s and '70s, when any dictator who messed with the Soviets was our "friend" and without sin. The Soviets were not nice. No doubt. But just as we used Hitler as an excuse to model much of OUR system after HIS, in the "war effort," so did we use the Soviets as the pretext for all kinds of bullshit. Classic Machiavellian thought. Make us afraid of our economic insecurities to grab power (the federal welfare state) and our international insecurities to grab power. Progressives get it half right, but have no fuckin' clue that the BEST bulwark against poverty is a free market with minimal government interference. It's when the government gets involved when robber barons can set up the system THEIR way, by bribing, conning, or coercing the 5 or 6 people we foolishly give the power to decide for us. In the age of smartphones, the average citizen - and threat of exposure - is a far stronger (and less corruptible) defense against abuses by private companies. And if you read and understand your Adam Smith, you would see that the REAL explosion in prosperity that brought MORE people up from poverty than any 10 government programs was property rights and limited government. Progressives abhor BOTH, which makes them as much a part of the problem as any Deep-State asshole. Not because they're evil, but because they're stupid and feed the dragon they all like to bitch about all the time. Don't like poverty? Use your freedom to generate some personal wealth and HELP SOMEBODY OUT! If more people LIVED that, we'd be much better off. If you think government (career) bureaucrats are going to do a better job on health care than you and your local community, you're a fool..

  2. I think we've been in love with fascism since we went to war with Hitler. We used the Depression and the Nazi threat to implement essentially fascist policies back in the 1930s and 1940s, and it worked so well for so many, while buying off the lower classes with handouts to build a consensus in the populace to vote for assholes who promise more Free Stuff and present themselves as bulwarks against Communism. From environmental issues to poverty to national security, we've been electing people who leverage all our insecurities to drum up support for never-ending growth in domestic programs and foreign adventurism. Progressives are blinded by the promise of government poverty programs that restrict upward mobility, poison our food, and get us into foreign wars and immoral regime-change activities just beneath the threshold of war, which you may as well call war, since we'd consider what we do to be an act of war if anybody pulled the shit we do on us! I love how Progressives see through the bullshit on international affairs. I wish they would see that the same exact controls are being applied here at home to keep us thinking that government is here to help us, when the government is in business for government.

  3.  @BloodMoneyLLC  : The Kurds are not a monolith. Sure, they'd like to have their own country, but I think most of them just want some form of self-determination within whatever borders they find themselves, like everybody else. And as for Israel, I think they're more about their own survival, so they do the bidding of our Deep-State types to ensure our backing, without which they would probably have disappeared, long since. The irony in Syria is that while Assad's definitely a dictator-type, his government is secular, and has treated the Kurds and Christians much more fairly than any of the other countries in the region, except Israel and Egypt.
