By bombing Iran, the US continues to make the world safe for war
Netanyahu is thrilled by Trump’s attacks on Iran, as will be the arms manufacturers who used to love the shah of Iran.

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

Not even 100 years ago. Middle of last century. I have a buddy in his early 80s who grew up in Iowa and he said that as a kid, "sometimes kids just died" from now preventable illnesses. His childhood was marked with the deaths of classmates.
i don't think most people today have any real idea what things like child mortality pre-vaccines really meant.
i have friends who have lost two children. they have been permanently altered by that experience.
that was basically everyone until 100 years ago.
