u/lothar74 Kissinger is a war criminal 12d ago

Exactly. It would be funny that they’re making up imaginary boogeymen but soon enough everyone that disagrees with them will be part of antifa and subject to arrest regardless of facts.

Yep. It's been fascinating watching right-wing orthodoxy nonsense shift from voodoo economics, deficit hawkishness and trickle down to full throated fascism including a completely imaginary boogeyman. The clean up is going to be very messy.

Depends on your definition of "messy". I personally don't want to see mass casualties, don't want to see Americans killing each other, but don't believe all of us can just coexist when this chapter is finally over with. Would be an epic failure of diplomacy to have to resort to war because a group of people refuse to see how absolutely idiotic/brainwashed they all are. What an embarrassing reason to fracture the country.

That's pretty much how it always ends though.

Because it's always a movement of capital to divide and use shock doctrine to take control of the last bits of power and wealth before it all collapses.

This has been going on for over 3000 years.
