    Biden tweeting out threats to Venezuela tonight, of all nights.

        Liberals need foreign wars to distract from domestic issues just like conservatives.

        Almost like they have no real answers to the domestic issues of the day and are either trying to keep the horrible status quo or make things even worse.

          Distraction is such a minor part of the war machine, it's not even worth mentioning. The wars are the point.

          I don't know where I heard this, but a Liberal Empire like America is a contradiction in terms and in order to function it needs an enemy. The USSR was perfect while it was around, and then there was some thought that the US could make global security or terrorism a couple of windmills to tilt at and to maintain the Empire - but nothing's worked. So, the hope is China or Venezuela or Iran or Russia or any nation-state can play the role and they're starting to get desperate in getting public buy-in.

      The guy who wrote our draconian prison laws and was the second in command of the administration that built the concentration camps along the border is running with someone who fought against early parole so she could keep using prisoners as slave labor. They're claiming they'll champion human rights around the world. Fucking lol
