I hope it turns out to be just a big embezzlement scheme like everything in the US.

It is a little bizarre those that were screaming about Obama’s death camps are now cheering on Trump’s Alligator Alcatraz. Truly propaganda, misinformation, public relations, etc. should be tightly regulated or just outright banned in order to have a functional society.

Almost four times the Marines request for the budget. Why the fuck do they need that much money!? Oh right, ggrrrrriiiiffffttt!

Lol, thanks for that. We have always been a fascist oligarchy.

But brain damage is sooo sexy.

Rule of law for thee but not me!

Projection, it is secretly what they wanted the whole time.

1. Bust the unions, less pay for truckers.
2. Cheap China meth available in truck stop vending machines
3. AI assisting in maximizing profits so truckers are guaranteed to work more and get paid less.

FTFY

Dozens of empires came and fell in that region. They have no unique claim and believing they did reeks of Zionism.

There is no good solution to the monstrosity that we helped created. Israel is like our little genocidal child, a regular chip off the old block.

Ding ding ding, we have a winner!

Looks like this post triggered a lot of American Exceptionalism here on Lemmy.

The US put economic pressure and sanctions that helped lead to the failure of the USSR. Without the US Putin would never have rose to power.

Hitler didn’t fund the Nazi party, wealthy people from the US did.

WWII would never have happened if the US didn’t turn its back on the League of Nations.

The US put Sadam Hussein in power.

The US helped create the instability in China that lead to the cultural revolution.

The US bankrolls, arms, and was fundamental in the creation of Israel.

I can go on and on. Trying to ignore history, GTFO!

It is hard to understand this as I grew up around a lot of conservatives who actually had values and decency.

If you told me even ten years ago that Republicans would be calling for US citizens to be deported I would have said you were crazy, but here we are.

The mask is off! Strip them of their citizenship and deport them to a third world prison? What a fucked up party they have become.

This is a bad take, no previous President has done something like this quite as unilaterally. Obama and past Presidents have gotten UN resolutions, congressional approval, or something more than just validation from their cabinet of yes men.

This is the crux of this issue.

Iranian morality police bad. American morality police good.

The line has been crossed and it is time to regulate the hell out of social media. Zombie Twitter, Meta, TikTok, etc all need to be smacked down.

The problem is everyone wants this control, it is like a atomic age for information manipulation. They can create an AI agent that teaches people everything they want them to know. They could completely recreate society and are likely already doing it.

This is actually a unimaginable crisis no one is talking about.

Cool, we know the conspirators now.

Ummm no! Our drones have crosses on them because Jesus is king.
