RSSMost critical thinkers at this point feel the government has no credibility. There was likely meddling in the 2020 election, and a lot of lies and nonsense regulations have been spewed during the covid era. Its become obvious that people and agencies in power have no problem whatsoever in manipulating “the people” in exchange for political gain and/or wealth. So it seems like the natural conclusion would be to not trust vaccines.
Remember, it's often not "this or that" it's "this AND that".
"In other words, when they so carefully planned their biowarfare against China, they did not foresee that most of the damage would be in the United States, and not China."
But the populations weren’t decimated…hardly. There were far more births than deaths. The only thing we don’t know is China’s true death toll, but it likely won’t be drastically different than every one else’s.
The way for the USA to vanquish potential enemies is to export its #1 product: Wokacity. Right now, China and Russia aren't fertile ground for this particular pathogen to take root, but if we can export some chosenites to run their media and import a hundred million third-world migrants, it shouldn't take too long.China's so large that 100 million might not be enough, but Africa is up to the task of supplying a billion or two of surplus humanoids this century. Matt Yglesias will have to wait to get his extra billion into America: other countries need wrecking too! O Brave New World.Replies: @redneck1, @Mefobills
The United States of WWII – an industrial and technological powerhouse, an economic autarky self-sufficient in resources and with no vulnerable external supply lines – no longer exists. How can it fight China – even by proxy – when its economy is critically dependent on Chinese manufacturing?
Your first sentence is correct. The way to conquer China, in particular, is to make them woke fools like us. The problem lies in a few areas, however: the commanding style of government in China will actively try to prevent this, and more than likely China is doing all it can to make America more woke, rather than vice-versa. We’re so hung up on nonsense genders and non-existing racism that we’ve backed ourselves into a corner.
This assumes the USA is led by rational people. The only way to stop China from dominating the world is to ally with Russia. Yet American fools are forcing an alliance between Russia with China.
Let us consider China first and then Russia, the foremost target of the U.S.
World War II also consumed millions of lives in Poland and Ukraine. Poland was used in 1939 as Ukraine is being used today.
“When elephants fight, it is the grass that gets trampled flat.” We can be sure that Duterte, like Zelensky, had in mind WWII which also consumed tens of millions of lives in East Asia.
Yes – I agree completely. The US should be forging ties with Russia to stem Chinese imperialism. Russia is actually a more seasoned, experienced super power. China is new at this and even more brutal than the bear. Instead, the total incompetence we have in office now along with his cabinet of fools…is doing exactly the opposite by driving Russian into the arms of China.
Right now what the US should be doing is working to ensure Ukraine will never be a member of NATO and at the same time offering some type of favorable trade deal with Russia.
If China or Russia launches any nuclear weapon into US coastal cities, its game over. Protocols exist for nearly automatic retaliation on a massive scale. The US advantage is that with missile launching capability from many points around the world, our missiles could actually reach their targets first, even if launched second.
The US military, while being weakened by woke nonsense and poor leadership by mostly non-patriots, is still a terrible force to be reckoned with.
Not an advantage. Russkies and Chinese can hit us with nuclear-armed missiles from submarines from anywhere, even very close to our shorelines.

Traffic cameras are a naked money-grab by police, and I question the self-serving stats about saving lives. Still, arguing that they can be racist is profoundly retarded.
Lol, and that's news to anyone? LE can sell damn near anything as a saving lives stunt but in the end it's almost always about the doe-ray-me.

Lots of racism here.
That said, the traffic cameras aren’t lying, no differently than official crime statistics. The simple fact is that blacks do engage in crime more than whites. There is no “systemic” agenda against them. It does seem they don’t wish to be held to the same standard as everyone else, and Government seems to not only be fine with that…but celebrate it.
That said, I know a number of very decent black people who are every bit as good as me. Sometimes its easy to label an entire group when the entire group isn’t exactly the same.
Not having ownership of any form of wealth that is part the ZOG system should be done for moral reasons, but even if you only care about your money then you should by now consider how long term viable it is to trust your wealth in countries that are run by basically evil lunatics.
True.
Except the US is trying to minimize any inconvenience. Oil and gas are getting exemptions from the SWIFT ban. So are some grain exports.
SWIFT sanctions can only work if their use is limited. So overuse will result in robust workarounds.
Ukraine needs a deal, and lifting Western sanctions should be part of it. Western media egging them on has no idea. If Russia is too weak to “win” with a light touch, they can just level the place. So Ukraine can’t win.
Even the reckless US establishment don’t want nuclear war for nothing.
The anti Russian sentiment is a mile wide and an inch deep. People seem to love it until they have to make the slightest sacrifice.
This is a good point. It explains why the propaganda in the West is so intense. If it were not so intense it would be wearing out quickly. Western normies are all for hating the villain of the day but their allegiances are flicky especially when it becomes slightly inconvenient.Replies: @anon

Not true. I know of a guy who's supporting Ukraine on his facebook profile photo. Plus, he's switched from vodka to tequila.

So, the west is flying to ISS with ships made by backward Russian people, is afraid of their backward supersonic missiles, buys their backward rocket engines?
Except Zelenskyy is, in fact, in harm’s way and could be killed. Sometimes there’s a bit too much conspiracy…
Glaziev essentially recommends:
[1]A “real de-offshorization of the economy”.
[2a]“Measures to tighten currency regulation in order to stop the export of capital and expand targeted lending to enterprises in need of financing investments”.
[2b]“Taxation of currency speculation and transactions in dollars and euros on the domestic market”.
[3]“Serious investment in R&D in order to accelerate the development of our own technological base in the areas affected by sanctions – first of all the defense industry, energy, transport and communications.”
Intriguingly, the U.S plan for MAGA Reindustrialization includes:
[1a] A “real de-offshorization of the economy”, generating domestic jobs.
[1b] Immigration measures to prevent newcomers from displacing U.S. citizens from domestic jobs, especially in STEM fields.
[2]“Measures to tighten regulation in order to stop CCP Currency Manipulation.
[3]“Serious investment in R&D in order to accelerate the development of our own technological base in the areas affected by foreign exploiters – first of all strategic resources (e.g rare earth elements), pharmaceuticals, energy, and electronics (industrial and individual)”
To head off accusations of a shared Trump/Glaziev playbook. All of these are common sense steps that most major powers should be taking ASAP. Why does it require egregious & obvious CCP Elite misconduct, or poorly targeted sanctions, before nations protect their own citizens?
PEACE 😇
None of Europe is going to leave NATO, because the Europeans are brainwashed even worse than the Americans. Peace, Love, BLM, LBGT, legalize drugs, let every immigrant in, climate change…all of it. Europe is as bad or worse than the US.
Dr. Goldfarb is correct, that they simply weren’t as good. No different than when some woke person demands to know why the police are killing more blacks than whites…and the answer, quite simply, is that blacks are committing more crimes than whites…or more specifically, doing the kinds of things that get you shot by the police while fewer whites are doing those things. Nobody seems to be able to accept this, despite how obvious it is. There always needs to be some reason that isn’t the fault of the black person. That’s not to say there are not highly qualified, excellent black people – there are. It just means the race as a whole tends to lag behind other races.
