What’s more stunning to me is see Venezuelans praise and Iranians invite Trumpian intervention.


Why wouldn’t they? Everyday life is terrible in those countries. Any change of trajectory is likely to be positive.


> Any change of trajectory is likely to be positive.

This is what “careful what you wish for phrases” was invented for


Completely agree, but I can still empathize with people who want change.


How do you know? Because you watch and listen to capitalist propaganda all day? And, on what do you compare? Do you compare it against poor people's lived experience in the U.S. that never get a second of media attention -- like the millions of unseen faces living under bridges in the U.S?

Your narrow privileged view is disgusting, evil, and feeding the beast of empire. Shame on you.


"millions" of people live under bridges?

My understanding is the US has in the order of ~600k bridges, you think there are 3-15 inhabitants per bridge from Florida to Alaska?


What’s more stunning to me is you believe the propaganda.
