Hillary sick?

America has been horribly racist all my life. It still is. But it's good that you wish to change this deeply ingrained inferiority complex from the American psyche. I'm with you on that.

But in pursuing that laudable aim your blithely ignoring something far, far worse.

The simple fact is that projecting wars overseas against Muslims, Russians, Chinese - and whoever else may happen to take the fucked up fancy of the utterly fucked up military intelligence & industrial complex of the US - remains the most blatant form of racism known to mankind.

And as we know, it's practised solely for financial gain and to keep the money monopoly going in order to keep the greedy bastard 1% in the comfort they've grown accustomed to.

What I take from your argument then, is that it's okay to export war-racism overseas so long as it keeps racism at bay at home. I can see how this form of myopia is acceptable. It's doubling down haard on the "I'm alright Jack" attitude.

All it requires to succeed is the ol' magic mind trick of wilfully ignoring the fact that thousands of miles away from US domestic concerns, hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of non-people will pay the price in blood and suffering.

And all because America prefers to psychologically project its shadow and growing schizophrenia far away from itself, thus avoiding responsibility for the chaos it rains down.

It's those nassy ol' Muslims, Russians and Chinese to blame. Not you. Not Washington. Not America. Never America.

Have a nice day.

First they came for the Muslims, and I did not speak out
Because I was not a Muslim.
Then they came for the Russians, and I did not speak out
Because I was not a Russian.
Then they came for the Chinese, and I did not speak out
Because I was not Chinese.
Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak for me.

It seems evident now that what people are saying: democrats have become the war party - really is true.

Who would've thunk...

Beautifully put, that man. It reminded me of this:
