How did we get to a reality where TV personalities are in charge of armies and command them to kill indiscriminately on a drunken whim?

THIS is and illegal order. THIS order may be refused.
And the military won't refuse them
Why would they though? The military is by design authoritarian. They're fucking loving the fascist revolution.
How many people signed up to go to Afghanistan, just to shoot brown people? It's filled with racist pieces of shit, with a boner for being dominated by an angry prick with an inferiority complex and a crew cut.
Murder. Straight up murder.
When Democrats inevitably take power again, and refuse to prosecute these war crimes, remember this to remind yourself that they are the enemy as well, even if not the immediate one.
Tweets. Midly worded mid level corporate manager pc tweets at best.
I'd argue Democrats coming back to power isn't inevitable, far from it. America is in for either revolution, civil war or decades of fascist rule. Something needs to give before corporate centrists can hold power in America again, and so far it hasn't.
They're called elections.
And before you tell me Trump is going to rig them, they just lost the last batch of them.
So please stop spreading the lie that civil war is inevitable, or that it is more likely to happen than simply MAGA losing power through elections.
He's going to rig them and, if that fails, just launch a coup.
they just lost the last batch of them.
Yes, because they didn't actually need to win those. He still has a loyal majority in Congress.
So please stop spreading the lie that civil war is inevitable
Someone disagreeing with you isn't "a lie," and besides, you should look at what fascism looks like historically. Did the Nazis get voted out post-Enabling Act? This is Trump's last chance to become the fascist dictator of his dreams and he and his handlers won't let it go over their dead bodies.
Yes, the most important thing to do after every Republican atrocity is to remember how BoTh SiDeS are identical morally.
That's not a both sides argument.
That's someone who's lived through many cycles of American hot potato, and is under no illusion as to who the Democrats are, which is not the same as the Republicans, but still their own lesser brand of banal evil.
It's your type's eagerness to always bring it back to Democrats that is notable.
Edit: more downvotes please. It's a badge of honor for a bunch of contrarians to disapprove of my message that Republicans are infinitely worse. We all know Democrats are disappointing and sometimes even criminal and your need to remind us every chance you get speaks volumes.
It's actually better if you reply instead of only downvote though so I can know for sure who the malicious/ignorant users are. Can y'all do me that favor?
Misread your comment the first time.
What is my type?
Again, I have lived through many transitional elections and have seen this cycle many times before, so if saying out loud the reality of our broken two-party system is hurtful to you, my apologies.
What I'm actually eager for, is to stop that cycle, and to stop it, you must first acknowledge it.
And doing your mixed capitalization of the both sides meme, ain't it.
Your type is the person who, when hearing about Republicans doing something bad, does not pause but immediately reminds everyone how bad Democrats are.
I'm sorry that I live in reality.
I'm sorry that you want to pretend that when Democrats get back in power, that they're going to hold these criminals to account.
But most of all, I'm sorry that you still have faith in the system, so much so that you are casting shame on anyone reminding people that the Democrats are not our saviors, and that it's up to us.
I stopped reading. You've no idea what I believe, but you're telling one story and unknowingly giving your true one away.
Stop, I'm choking on the irony.
You’ve no idea what I believe
And yet, you're quiet comfortable telling them what they believe.
Cute.
No I'm not the one in many threads trying to shift focus away from a select group
You and your ilk aren't doing anything useful. You're just trying to pull votes away from the party of baseline semi sanity. When Jill Stein takes votes from a Democrat, you get all hot and bothered because that's your only goal. Ps. Zero surprise it's you saying this shit. I tagged you months ago as a user who says "sHiTlIb". No one who uses that dumbass term has any good intentions or valuable opinions.
Always the sHiTliB crowd simping for Republicans and Russian assets like Jill fuckin Stein.
ShIiIiiTllLlllIiIiIIbBbB!
I'm not usually one to speak on maturity, but are you sure you're old enough to be here?
And that the Democratic poster child was doing the exact same thing, don't forget that part.
I don't think Carter, AOC, or Mamdani authorized drone strikes. Obama, a centrist at best, definitely did.
Remind me, who was the last non-centrist Democratic President?
Sure, but I think it's clear from context that I'm talking about Obama. Establishment bootlickers love him so this is a good opportunity to highlight their hypocrisy.
He may be the best republican president we've had since the shift, but he is no favorite among progressives.
Gotta cover up your war crimes and lies. Survivors could tell the world that they're innocents, not 'narco-terrorists', and prove the US is attacking Venezuelan boats on bullshit supposed Intel to try and incite retaliation to justify their war they absolutely intend to start.
Deportment of war does war
