I guess it’s just one of those decades.

I bet in 10 years my insurance plan will no longer cover imaging being interpereted by a radiologist.

That’s a very sharp prediction, thanks. I will run that by some people.

Nope, I am responding to you saying that calling Harris Hitleresque is laughable.

Since 1952 very fine books were already being published examining how the USA funded fascism abroad, and what it looked like when securely in power rather than vying for dominance before collapsing.

I remember that story too, it’s horrible, but there is a good reason an administration which plans to fight police and army corruption would condemn an event where nearly a thousand students were killed. I don’t think they plan to leave small communities and students behind, or else why go build all of these vocational schools?

I think if the foreign affairs ministry was contaminated just to make an errant statement, we would at least see a backlash within the Swiss government. There is no evidence of this.

It’s not just angry candor against the US. People have pointed out fascist characteristics of the US government, historically, since at least 1952. Not a new theory at all.

LOL, funny, well she’s not perfect to me.

Personally I think the degrowth politics of US greens is too close to NGO nonsense but at least it is actually against the genocide. Wouldn’t be surprised if they turn around and demand poor countries denuclearize. Would not be surprised if she began talking about the evils of ROSATOM sending nuclear tech to Africa.

Then again, the US nuclear industry is famously wasteful and dangerous, so it could simply be a reaction to that, along with it maintaining our arsenal.

Yes and the US assets and oil interests in the region are toast if things get much hotter. Interpreting the Iranians’ move to delegitimize the US on a historic scale as weakness is just another example of the sociopathy and arrogance which runs through the imperialist power structure
