It's funny. We're awash in terrible things happening in and from America, but that isn't enough for the tankies. It's almost like they have an agenda.
not sure I follow what this means
America is doing terrible things at home and abroad, but that isn't enough for the tankies. They need us to have always been like this.
We haven't. This is the first time we've had a president that wasn't at least trying to do the right thing by his people, no matter how misguided.
I think even Reagan fully bought into the trickle down bullshit and thought he was doing the right thing for America and Americans by paving the way for corporate oligarchy.
I think W (from his perspective at the time) justified our invasion of Iraq with both liberating the people and reducing our reliance on Israel and Saudi Arabia.
The orange tyrant doesn't give that much of a fuck. He doesn't need to have anything sold to him other than his own name.
You're so preoccupied with your knee jerk anticommunism that you're doing revisionist, apologist history for the Reagan administration. Was Reagan doing what he thought was the best for the people when participating in the Iran Contra affair? Come on, the US is a country that has always operated to secure its own imperialist hegemony since it became a global super power. Every single government since the start of the Cold War has operated to do that by any means necessary, even committing genocide and propping up fascist regimes worldwide.
