The more things change the more they stay the same.

The Zionist Butcher Netanyahu and the FOTUS digging their atrocities.

As America accepts Christian Nationalism and fascism under the boots of the FOTUS we are diminished further as a nation and people.

Joe Conservative said...

The politics of paranoia are not becoming to whoever holds them.

Les Carpenter said...

Tell that to the FOTUS.

Joe Conservative said...

I tried.

Joe Conservative said...

...but seems the Neocons got to him before I could. @@

Les Carpenter said...

The felon Trump is merely the newest iteration of American ignorance and stupidity born of the neocon paranoia.

Joe Conservative said...

He's a reluctant dupe of the US Intelligence Community and its' neocon leaders.

Joe Conservative said...

His instrintcs to resist their advice were right, but they wore him down. He was forced into an alliance with the Natcons and needed their help staffing up (JD Vance, Peter Thiel, et al).

Joe Conservative said...

His best advisor, Steve Bannon, was exiled into the wilderness through Lawfare.

Joe Conservative said...

Now they're taking out Tulsi, Tucker, and MTG

Joe Conservative said...

Trump's now been 'captured' (circumveiloped) by the obscuritards.

Joe Conservative said...

The video chronicles the birth of the US Intelligence State out of a paranoia that blew-back on America and captured the CIA and Executive branch under Reagan.

Les Carpenter said...

He's a lying con you continue to defend rather than to admit your error. That's known as being in a cult.

Les Carpenter said...

At least I admitted my error in not working for and voting for Bernie in 2016.

Les Carpenter said...

And yes, defeating the "Evil Empire" (a noble desire) under Reagan built on the post WW II fervor to end communism and the Soviet Union. And now, we're becoming that we allegedly worked hard to eliminate.

The. Butcherl and the Felon may very well end up fully disgraced and their nations disgraced whith them.

Les Carpenter said...

But MAGA will continue to support their cult leader and accelerate the descent into authoritarianism and deep ignorance.

Les Carpenter said...

The MIC, a fascist and unholy alliance of (industry) armament producers and the military whose interests rest in global conflict from which the industry benefits is the main driving force behind America's never ending conflict footing.

Les Carpenter said...

Bannon is an asshole in spades.

Les Carpenter said...

Two things can be right at the same time. Bannon is correct if he opposed the strikes. He is an asshole for his criminal activity during tRump 1.

Joe Conservative said...

^^Dupe of the MSM^^

Joe Conservative said...

Bernie's a geriatric old communist whose only virtue is that he never became a member of the New Left and their abandonment of communisms goals in favour of cultural capitalism and individualistic consumerism. Bernie still had the old-Left-Labour working man at his center.

Joe Conservative said...

There's a better option? The reductio ad absurdum scapegoating Democrats? please. No one can be THAT stupid.

Les Carpenter said...

Yeah, vote using intelligence, not feelings stirred up by a con man.

Joe Conservative said...

Wrong. It the entire Neoliberal economic project that preaches global free trade. The one that sells out the world's culture for a multicultural stew of nihilism and the lowest paid worker. The commodification of Land, Labour, capital, and Information on steroids.

Joe Conservative said...

Physician heal thyself.

Les Carpenter said...

AOC and Crockett. A dynamic duo of the near future.

Les Carpenter said...

Yup. Exactly what the FOTUS is cooking up for himself and his oligarch buddies. Soon everybody will be wage slaves feeding the wealth of billionaires and their corporations.

An interconnected mutually supportive global economy is a problem only for the isolationists that think the world can revert to conditions as they were when nobody questioned the rightness of whiteness.

Joe Conservative said...

A duo of imbeciles.

Joe Conservative said...

The world needs you to save them Les... @@

Joe Conservative said...

...so go ahead, reprise the White Saviour, but leave me out of it.

Les Carpenter said...

In your NAGA infested mind.

Les Carpenter said...

MAGA

Joe Conservative said...

Please, please, please... make Them your cult of individualism's leaders.

The Prophet Dervish Z Sanders said...

The Politics of Stupidity = trumpism.

Joe Conservative said...

You draw too short a radius for your circle, Derv. You need to draw one big enough to put the UniParty in, too.

Les Carpenter said...

There is no so called UniParty. Except in the obscured minds of the MAGA faithful.

Trumpism and MAGA certainly do lead to The Politics of Wilfull Stupidity.

Joe Conservative said...

Tell that to your girl Lynn Cheney.

Les Carpenter said...

She already realizes the Willful Stupidity of Trumpism and MAGA . There's not much Liz and I would agree on politically. However, I respect her for her understanding of the danger the Malignant Narcissist Felon is to our democracy and democratic republic. In her opposition to the clueless moron she is spot on right.

Joe Conservative said...

Just so long as you support forever wars, she'll be your gal.

Les Carpenter said...

So, you obviously did not read my comment. Either that or your reading comprehension is piss poor. But you're MAGA. So, no suprize.

The Prophet Dervish Z Sanders said...

Minus: Just so long as you support forever wars, she'll be your gal.

Liz Cheney has come out in support of donald trump's bombing of Iran?

Joe Conservative said...

You think she supports Palestine? Iran? LOL!

Joe Conservative said...

So the only thing you agree with her on is that Trump isn't a Neocon?

Les Carpenter said...

I don't use the standard labels you love. Nor am I going to engage with pointless tit for tat games.

Joe Conservative said...

What is this then?
