The seeds of this started in the George Bush era and earlier.
The compliant press that cheer led the Iraq war.
The formation of an oligarchy that hugely influenced economic policy.
The attacks on experts, scientists and general modern science.
The vicious attacks on liberals and anybody else who opposed them.
The infiltration of far-right Christians into the highest levels of government and the military.

- Comment on 'Why don't we call it Mexican America?': Claudia Sheinbaum hits back at Trump 2 weeks ago:
Bro, it is likely 100,000 people (mostly women and children) are dead.
Even if Arab Americans voted at the same rate as 2020, the outcome would not have changed.
The reality is that incumbent governments around the world, regardless of political orientation, have been getting tossed out of power due to inflation and cost of living pressures.

The Democrats did enable genocide though.
Doesn’t mean Trump was going to be any better.

- Comment on US Democracy 2 months ago:
There may not be any need for that.
The United States, China, etc. all have trade policies that are fundamentally unsustainable and result in persistent trade imbalances.
This causes all sorts of poor economic outcomes for large sectors of those countries. For example, an anaemic household sector in China and over investments in housing, huge private and public sector deficits in the United States, etc.
In the free market world of Adam Smith, persistent trade imbalances should not exist.
At some point, there is going to be an economic crisis.

Just your average Israeli.
Their current national hero doing the rounds on talk shows is the guy who filmed himself raping random Palestinians who were picked up in a sweep in the West Bank.
