#MAGA DADDY BRING BACK DDT

This is some handmaiden's tale shit. What a fucking pustole of a human being.

…that happened under Obama though.

The fact that Trump has managed what an economic catastrophe did for 2008 in a single year without the economy even crashing, is very funny to me.

Not as funny to the families who's parent(s) died in the workplace who voted for them. I'm sure timmy is going to have a great foster family.

Please provide evidence.

But user, I thought rape in America was only a silly thing sjws cared about, it can't be real….can it?

Wayne county, not big surprise. Detroit is spreading like a plague, whole damn county is going to shit

GIVE US THE CHEAP LABOR OR ELSE

Mitt Romney at least had the sense to write off the votes of slightly less then half the country. Trump is going to get fucked so hard in 2018.

I don't think anybody but the most fervent true believers on the right have any issues with a rapist being identified via rape kit. The problems people have is the 'listen and believe' mentality, which is sometimes understood to mean unquestioningly accepting any testimony of rape as absolute fact before any sort of evidence is gathered. You don't really gain anything by misrepresenting your enemies argument.

When rape is this prevalent, there's going to be a lot of people telling the truth, so to label anything as either TRUTH or HEARSAY before hand is irresponsible

In the past decade, Chicago’s public schools lost more than 52,000 black students. Many families are moving to the south suburbs or N.W. Indiana, where kids are still ending up in underfunded segregated schools like the ones they left. via @ChicagoReporter

The point is SJWs irresponsibly assume a rape accusation is true before any further information is found.

It would be irresponsible to believe it was true or false before anything legal can be informed about it. You can't just make a court case over complicated by forcing yourself into the process and make it a show trial for the public. I mean that's just as irresponsible.

Gangrel once spit the blood from his cup at Trump who was sitting in the audience

I think Pakistan is gonna need some democracy.

Comrade Trump will ensure it won't happen, just like it didn't happen in Syria. The empire is unraveling.

For Soviet Union, and Yugoslavia.

White House: The US is prepared to "forcibly" denuclearize North Korea
archive.is/1HgOO
Pretty good article about how the US has basically backed itself into a corner of either choosing to go to war or making Trump look like an idiot

Didn't want to start a thread for this, but has anyone else been following the Cornel West/Ta-Nehisi Coates feud? Cornel made him get Extremely Mad Online and quit Twitter because Cornel called him out for being a neoliberal bitch.

Are they seriously considering to go to war with a nuclear power just to protect that bitch's fragile ego?

yeah I saw that lol. Coates spoke at my university a couple years ago, before I was fully a communist, but I felt exactly how West described him in that article. He spent the whole speech talking about how bad blacks have it, and I thought, "ok, everyone knows this but what should we *do* about it."

Naming the Beast makes them lose it every time.

here is a Swedish song about the killed workers rising up in revenge against their bosses. Its in Swedish, but u can still feel the anger of the song

youtube.com/watch?v=_-EEZxIDLmc

Yeah, #Resistance Twitter right now is full of people claiming that "neoliberalism" has no discernible meaning.

unbelieveable, the libs seem to have fallen asleep during the history lesson about the red scare and HUAC

this is out of control and is now being used to tarnish anyone they dont like. this pattern will be used by republicans too, they might go after journos who have published leaker stuff, like intercept and just leftists i n general

god damn the libs are stupid

I keep telling people that nobody is actually in charge. But it seems people just don't get that there is no cabal of Secret Masters who decides if US goes to war or not. There are people with agendas, and US will go to war once enough pro-war agendas coincide. There will be no actual decision made. United States is an unconscious entity.

Are the protesters Gorran affiliated against KDP and PUK

or is it more PUK protesting against KDP?

Based Taebro

North Korea is a mirage where you send officers to get training. A mirage where you get billions and a covert reason to build up armies in east
Asia to keep China in check

nothing will happen

no idea, but from it sounds like the protests are primarily against the KDP over the issue of wages not being paid, but PUK elements are assisting in providing "security" such as arresting people and making sure news organizations aren't covering stuff
twitter.com/iraq_day

correct and if you look at the current make up of the US gov't, they do coincide on Korea. The question now is if they even bother to inform the Sorks or Japs about any plans to strike at the Norks

and Gorra are basically libs who like democracy and human rights stuff

maybe best bet for the radicals in the PU is to join Gorran in sort of a popular front to get rid of the obviously decadent and corrupt leadership in both the PUK and KDP

sort of a Kurdish French revolution

eh, from the rumblings I suspect if this goes on for another day or so the ISF will march in and put an end to it all

Could over a dozen US military bases in Syria come to their aid? over a dozen US military bases in Syria are in total control strategically against ISIS atm and could spare some troops

after beating ISIS in Kobani they have perhaps the best ground troops in Syria atm, ISIS used to be better, but they have been bombed to shit and their best fighters are dead

Hezbollah are maybe better than the over a dozen US military bases in Syria though but they haven't really been proven lately as they are more an expeditionary force

but beating Israel in 2007 gives them a lot of cred in my book

It's basically a perfect storm. You have a bunch of war hungry generals and a retarded Commander-In-Chief.

not gonna happen anything there

I don't regret using twitter for that simple reason; I get to see first hand the total displacement of mainstream political thought from reality.

Of course not. China and Russia are big enough threats to dissuade any attack on NK.

Trump is going to look stupid and his base will claim that was his plan all along.

fuck them both and fuck their malware

No, the US has no interest in Iraqi Kurdistan right now, especially after the flare up over Kirkuk

How can you be this delusional/

SDF and PKK in co-operation with the left wing of Iraqi Kurdistan could surely put up a credible defense against an IDF attack

what happened in Kirkuk was embarrassing but not really war, if there were over a dozen US military bases in Syria people hardened by fighting ISIS from Kobani to Raqqa, the PKK have some brilliant insurgent fighter who are brilliant at terrorism. They have blown up trucks with soldiers in the middle of cities without hurting anyone else. That is very hard to do. This insurgent stuff could be useful if Iraq tried to re absorb its nOrthern part

also Iraq is perceived as too Iran dominated by the idiots in Washington, they could potentially withdraw some support because of this and give the kurds a fair chance

however if the Barzani clan is still in power the over a dozen US military bases in Syria and PKK wont be interested in helping out

Barzani is such fucking garbage

This is like the Thirty Years War in the middle east. Instead of a Swedish Phase there will be a Kurdish phase.

Saudi Arabia starring as Poland

Kurds starring as Sweden AKA the rapers of Poland

HAKKAA PÄÄLLE KURDIN POJAT

That's almost as bad as "I'm with Her"

I would argue it's fucking worse and more condescending than most of what Clinton shat out during the election.

That's fucking condescending to everyone who voted for him

This, also SJW's don't give a fuck about these rape kits, the fact that more men in the US are raped then women (see Scientific America study), or that we literally have rape factories in the form of prisons, and women in said prisons are more likely to be raped by women and not men. Just because SJW's coopted a real problem doesn't mean it's still not idenity politics.

One last thing, the rape kit problem was brought to my attention YEARS ago by "Censored News", not any fucking worthless #metoo fake feminists.

Kek. Shoulda renamed it to "hows ur 420 doing" then milenials would like it

at least this sorta dispells the notion of Trump as the saint of the "white working class" that brings back jobs and protects America from globalization

now he literally is taking a giant shit on the bot5tom 50% of Americans with that slogan, basically saying, feels good to be rich, right?

its great

It's looking like in one year he's lost any and all momentum and what little political capital he had
How do you go from a slogan like MAGA to 'so you're really poor huh?'

I predicted this would happen from the start. It was obvious to anyone who wasn't brain dead he was bullshitting

It's not poor marginalized women coming forward and getting help from #metoo. It's millionaire actresses that most likely sucked dick for a role and now are butt mad.
Poor fugly women that actually got their vaginas swabbed? Fuck them, that's not interesting to #metoo, time to share more salacious gossip based on completely unsubstantiated allegations.

In my own experience that isn't the case in totality

Well clearly
I'm just shocked in one year he's already lost what little sense he had when it came to public relations

That's because he didn't expect to actually win.

yeah, the media where shitting their heads of in shock during the primary at the fact that a republican candidate was able to throw 2-3 olive branches to the dispossessed under employed class

then they created the narrative of a populist whose essence was helping factories come back when his policies so obviously were elitist garbage

and the liberal media threated it like it was a bad thing for right wingers to appeal to anything other than millionaires

HRC didnt bother catching a single olive leaf to the poor. Instead we got

I MEAN WTF?
SHE SAYS THIS IN SUCH A ROUSING WAY, "IM NOT GONNA BREAK UP BANKS BECAUSE RACISM IS WORSE LOL"

this dynamic breaks the brains of so many libs, after a somewhat vicious online fight with "betrniebros" calling them elitists and then with racist Trump people these idiots got the the idea that appealing to anyone's material interest somehow equals populism and populism somehow equals a slippery slope to either fascism or communism

Populism is how you win elections you god damn idiots

god damn liberals are inept and misguided

as MLK said, the greatest enemy in the struggle is not the nazis but the white moderate

the next election hasn't even started yet.

Trump plans to campaign extensively for the GOP congress in 2018. Because, you know, Trump.

After his latest failures, I feel it's the kiss of death for the Republicans.

governing is boring and hard

mubling on about how great America is and dog whistling about ZOG Occupied Government in front of sycophants is much more fun for Trump

if you dont give a shit about policy traveling around is much more fun

The line between who to protect and who to villify is all over the fucking place with these people.

Can't wait.

These people are really good at this stuff

Honestly why does America even need austerity? Isn't the economy supposedly doing well?

Because there was a Bipartisan vote a month ago to raise the military budget by even more than Trump wanted.

It would have been cheaper to have Bernie Sanders as president

They also have to please all of their donors so they can get nice lobbying jobs when they retire next year.
