I didn't click on that news clip of him exulting in how awesome his military strike is, and how no one can stop him if he does it anywhere else. It doesn't tell me anything I don't already know.
Nationalism relies on a bedrock of patriarchy: the rule of the rapists.

"I'm sorry, but spilling the blood of the undercastes is the only way for citizens of empire to overcome their moral impairment. Perhaps in another few massacres they'll finally understand browns are people too. Be patient---boys will be boys!
They're just following orders, you know."

The fact this brave child-murderer is blocking everyone dunking on him (for the crime of racist mass murder and such) is funny. Courageous enough to go shoot unarmed civilians and children, but not enough to face some social media criticism!

at what point is "america is a dying empire & will collapse in on its own weight in time" just wishful thinking for a rapture event that makes people actively passive and complacent and channel away efforts from doing things. there is no sign of stopping despite everything

War costs entirely too much to do it out of the goodness of your heart, and politicians typically have none to begin with. Let alone Trump

It should be patently obvious to everyone attacking Venezuela is not about Manduro/drugs/corruption. It's about seizing resources and dictator dick-measuring. If Manduro flopped belly-up for Trump, this wouldn't have happened

The US "taking control" of Venezuela isn't gonna bring freedom or liberation to Venezuelans.
It's only gonna bring more hardship, as evident by basically every recent US intervention. As evident by the clear statement that this is about stealing Venezuelan oil and resources.

Opposing US actions in Venezuela isn't about supporting the Venezuelan government, their dictatorship, or human rights violations.
It's about the fact that the US doesn't care for Venezuelans (see: deportations for example). It's about the fact that this isn't about democracy.

The sheer cognitive dissonance it takes for USians to shriek "ACAB but the poor widdle imperial goons had no choice and respect the troops and and and" always belied such a rank, foul hypocrisy.
Cops are bad because they hurt USians, who are people, but soldiers hurt foreigners, so who cares.

I talk a lot about how buried India's lesbian history is.
A friend actially found a book that's basically an ethnography of various unprivileged (working-class) lesbians in India, and is reading it with me.
It deserves to be witnessed but now I almost wish it stayed buried.
