I agree, the Chinese poster is on point about all their statements.

Yes, but let’s stop pretending that all other countries are angelic heavens with leaders who have nothing but the best intentions for all people, everywhere. Every country has its issues, and it’s really easy to blame them on “imperialists”.

In fairness, all countries play the destabilization games against each other. That’s the core of realpolitiks.

The truth is that the U.S. contributes the most to foreign aid funds, and still gets zero to little political good will.

This is one people should seriously protest to fucking stop. Education is the one thing that levels the playing field for people across different socioeconomic backgrounds. Get on the phone to your representatives, this is the main one they were working towards and wanted to distract from!

Yes, agreed

People are setting up some processes to respond to all of this. Not everything is worth reacting to as it’s a distraction.

The goal is to distract from the main points of their anti-regulation onslaught

Black people helped built the U.S., what a fucking disgrace to the atrocities their ancestors suffered.

IMO, this is such a bad idea because many of the people they can imprison here will have networks in the US, and knowledge of places, people and systems. This is a good way to help Bukele build an insurgent army. Some criminals will already have weapons training. The dude was already buying bitcoin to undermine the supremacy of the U.S. dollar, why the hell does anyone think he’s a friend or has good intentions?

The only time America loses its mind is when there’s a national security threat. I don’t know what’s going on here, but all of these allowances seem totally out of the norm, so I am going to guess it’s something like that.

That’s a bold prediction, but I really don’t think this is a body count type of situation. I think they’re trying to deter new illegal immigrants from coming in by scaring them about jailing them. At the very least, I hope all countries involved do the responsible adult thing, and help out the poor people who effectively dont have a home.

If it turns into a body count type of situation, that’s inviting civil war, and I don’t think anyone wants that. Whatever it is, at the end of it Republicans and Democrats are pro-America and pro-Americans.

I shared the article because I saw some nuggets of constitutional checks working, like the judge saying he couldn’t end birth right citizenship. I hate the idea of people getting worked up the same way J6ers did and think the world is ending.

The lack of information and flurry of information together could create a bad situation like J6, I sincerely hope it doesn’t come to that or worse.

This is dumb, you can do America First policies and have FDR-type socialism, or Nordic model policies, together. American permanent residents and citizens should get benefits they pay for via their taxes. Simple.

Liberalism is centrism.

Good point, I should clarify that’s not what I was saying. I was saying that it reminds me of the same online reactions prior to it happening.

There is left wing authoritarianism

Tbh, I am coming to terms with my own vulnerability to fall for leftist propaganda.

DEI is for all identities, not just POC. Creating more process is part of the the CIA field manual for fighting fascists, hence the question, are more bureaucratic jobs being created in some misguided attempt to “fight US imperialism”?

No, I didn’t say minorities, you’re assuming that. I was pointing out the part in the text which says, “fight fascists by creating bureaucracy”. There are lots of articles already which point out that DEI is for all identities, not just POC.
