Not so much, CNN just simps for whomever is in power, and they never miss an opportunity to polish the military-industrial complex's knob. The difference is in how they frame the knob polishing. Don't confuse general purpose cuckoldry with partisan cuckoldry.

Which hasn't even been true for twenty years. The single biggest bloc of undocumented in the US have been (and still are) visa overstays.

It helps if you don't name drop a country that's specifically attempting to re-normalize and strengthen relations with China in the face of an increasingly politically and economically unstable US. https://www.dw.com/en/china-japan-and-south-korea-to-strengthen-free-trade/a-72085756 Oops. A...

You're looking at a puddle of piss and claiming it's the ocean. Not only is there unlikely to be another global conventional military conflict, a nation-state must first be economically capable of waging it in the first place. Straight up, the US ain't it. You do not understand the severity of...

lol Cold War-era "free" trade was never free. It was peg your currency to the US dollar, hold dollars as your reserve currency, trade exclusively with NATO countries, and (neo)liberalize your economy or suffer sanctions in the best case, US-backed coups to install friendly regimes in the worst...

Tell me you don't actually know anything about the Cold War, without saying you dont't actually know anything about the Cold War. Otherwise, articles like this one (from a right-wing source, by the way) would have you telling a far, far different tale. (Hint: US global reserve currency status...

Things being bad for the US may not automatically make them good for China, but this is a scenario in which it is incredibly advantageous for China. China's strategic interest is in an economically and politically isolated US, so it has a free hand to develop and move into rapidly-developing...

That's 3rd edition (and the 2nd edition retroactive write-up). Besides, Antifor is clearly an evoker wizard -- if Antifor was a sorcerer, under 3rd edition rules a widened fireball would have cost a full-round to cast and he wouldn't have been able to move in the same turn.

Ah, there we go, now your post makes sense. You see, that's where tstorm done fuk'd up. He's confusing fireball, a 3rd level spell, with wall of fire, a 4th level spell. And you can't get a 30' radius out of fireball, since the widen spell metamagic doubles the radius to 40'. Antifor was...

Honestly, yeah, those protestors absolutely set the fire. There's not really room for debate there. The question underoos doesn't want asked and is going out of his way to dodge, is exactly which part of that justified the escalation, and made lethal violence a proportional response. As I said...

They are trained in drill, and tend to be somewhat proficient in it. Hell, every single Army friend and family member I've ever known has at least one story about being made to do it at great length as part and parcel of getting smoked for some fuck-up at basic or MOS training (though the most...

And the pigs understand it's far harder to manufacture consent for state violence against protests that are predominantly white, all-ages, and cross income brackets/class lines. Look at the back-breaking mental gymnastics performed just to justify the "nonviolent" arrest of the Capitol building...

You mean the constitutional monarchy that served as the Mexican government from the time it achieved independence from Spain...in 1821? That one? Doesn't change the fact the land was stolen from Mexico in an imperialist war in the first place. Kind of the whole reason the entire region has...

You see, this is what happens when the Vatican doesn't elect a good Pope -- you know, like Pius XII and Benedict.
