No, the Iraq War Wasn't abotu Oil, it was about Securing Israel

asg101 · 2020-02-18T05:15:36+00:00

The Iraq war, as well as the Afghanistan war, have been about transferring trillions of dollars of wealth from the poor and working class to the offshore accounts of the war profiteers. To call either of them "failures" is to ignore their true goals.

It's almost as though the democrats don't REALLY believe Trump is an out of control despot... Or that "both" factions of the corporate party are war-mongering war profiteers.

asg101 · 2020-01-07T21:34:07+00:00

This would never work, the USA is full of Chicken Hawks, that are in favor of all wars as long as they never fight in them. The louder they call for war, the less chance they have ever, or would ever serve in one.

But long term, a military full of spineless cowards might serve to end the empire faster, so there may be SOME merit to the idea.

asg101 · 2019-12-15T04:12:50+00:00

"left vs. right" doesn't really seem the best way to describe things.

I agree, it is more an "anything that challenges the corporate narrative" gets banned. I got banned from /r/"freethought" for pointing out that "both" U.S. political parties serve the corporate plutocracy, and not the people.

Yeah, anyone who thinks "hitlery" is a socialist is beyond educating.

When 8 people in the world own more wealth than 1/2 the entire worlds population, the endpoint is certainly in sight to anyone not deliberately ignoring it.

asg101 · 2019-11-21T03:13:48+00:00

The endpoint of capitalist "free trade" is the rich owning the government and everything else, and using it all to further enrich themselves. You claim that this is somehow different from fascism, but I see no difference in the results. Show me one "free trade" country that does not use it's police, military, and corporations to enrich the wealthy at the expense of all other classes of people. The realities of the world do not fit your fantasies.

asg101 · 2019-11-20T20:26:22+00:00

I think I get it now. Capitalism is where those with money and power make all the decisions and control governments that enact policies that favor the rich and powerful, whereas Fascism is where those with power and money control governments that enact policies that favor the powerful and rich! Certainly not the same at all, what a stupid mistake to make! Thank you Ms. or Mr. shtposter9000 for your insightful comments.

asg101 · 2019-11-20T03:27:35+00:00

The U.S. also claims their own continuous and varied wars of aggression do not violate International Law. In addition to being wrong about Israel's illegal colonization, they are also wrong about that.

I think they should be referred to as "hoarders". Hoarders used to be shot in wartime, and if we are not in a war for our survival now, it won't be long.

I was banned from r/"freethought" after pointing out that both factions of the corporate party (Reps and Dems) serve the interests of the plutocracy, not the people. I found out that some thoughts are free-er than others after some child-mod got his UnderRoos in a knot over it..

asg101 · 2019-10-08T17:07:09+00:00

The war profiteer owner/operators of the USA control "BOTH" political parties. They will condemn anyone who attempts to interfere with their cash flow.

I got banned from /r/freethought for pointing out that both factions of the corporate party "democrats" and "republicans" serve the same plutocracy.

asg101 · 2019-07-16T23:55:24+00:00

All part of the plan. You need a steady supply of drugs to addict and imprison anyone who might revolt.

EVERYTHING about U.S. politics is a psyop, and always has been. It started with conning colonial workers into supporting a home-grown plutocracy over the British aristocracy and continues to the Corporate duopoly we have today.

"Hard left ahead".... LOL. Only if left is the direction to Israel and Biden's corporate masters.

I wonder how differently the USSR would have fared if nearly the entire world had not tried to destroy them from the moment they came to be? If capitalism has nothing to worry about from such a "laughable" system as communism, why are they so terrified of it?

asg101 · 2019-06-25T22:18:06+00:00

So yeah, we know they use "divide and conquer" quite effectively, and have done so for thousands of years. But what precisely do we do to fight it? Group hugs with the pigs clubbing and summarily executing us?

The ruling class uses EVERY form of divisiveness to win, and have done so for all of human history. Until we all figure out that we have more in common with each other than we do with the plutocracy, we will be played like pawns.

Double standards for pigs is nothing new, they can lie to US all they want, but lying to a pig is a crime. Also, they execute thousands of people a year with no consequence.

Calling B.S. Workers have a say in how their unions are run, and without a union, workers have ZERO voice in their workplaces. All wealth is created by workers, how much of their own created wealth they are allowed to retain is dependent on how well organized they are. The plutocracy hates unions because of these simple facts.

The person who exposed proof of U.S. War Crimes and has been tortured for that exposure by the War Criminals. Someone of considerably more integrity and value to the human race than 99.99999% of her fellow Americans. Try to keep up.

Legislate away the profit motive. If the war profiteers can no longer make bank on it, they will stop starting wars for profit. That would end all U.S. wars at least.

asg101 · 2019-04-24T03:54:45+00:00

Taxes are no way near 70% in Canada, and people actually get services they need from the taxes, they are not paying for imperial wars all over the world.

Do you like the idea of public funding of mass murder for private corporate profit?

asg101 · 2019-04-23T01:33:07+00:00

No FUCKING way. Canada has learned how to live in the world peacefully, The USA is a terrorist imperialistic state that kills innocent people on a daily basis. Canada cares for their citizens and residents enough to provide the basic human right of health care, the USA sells out its people to whichever corporation can make the most money off their suffering and death.

I have lived in both countries, and most Canadians I have met have a deservedly contemptuous view of the imperialist USA. It figures this idea was floated by some corporate whore.

I don't think there is any problem re-posting from anywhere as long as it is an item of interest. As /r continues to self-destruct and collapse into their corporate cesspool of censorship, more people will seek alternatives. With more interesting content, there will be more participants, and when the participants can speak freely without fear of being summarily and arbitrarily silenced, there will be more discussion. Choice is good.

The evidence supports your statement. If the good outweighed the bad we would not be looking at the destruction of the environment on a global scale, the fastest rate of species going extinct in history, and the concentration of wealth and resources in the hands of so few.
