Hopefully not like that

America is an imperialist empire and fascist are the useful idiots of empire. And the Democratic Party is a neoliberal party, which if you look at the global spectrum of conservatism versus liberalism, it is actually a right wing ideology. So it can be argued there isn't even a left wing in America, and a lot of people are just confused about their political affiliations. We are in a time of reactionary populism. America is a right-wing country and liberals just choose to ignore our brutality overseas. And so every time there is a conflict there is a high chance that liberals will get sucked in to being a part of the military industrial complex and the imperialist aims of the imperial core since Yankees live in a vacuum.. This is why they're still confused about Ukraine. And like, if you study history, you know this like cycle repeats itself. It's frustrating. People don't have framework. Depending where you are on the social hierarchy, you either are comfortable and happy with your life. Or you realize how low on the totem pole you are. And it's kind of like you live in North Korea with a mixture of Disneyland, but you forgot your wallet and you're not allowed to leave. It's so frustrating when liberals take up the space that's supposed to be occupied by the left wing, and then they police us and tell us how to think. What we are experiencing is the imperial boomerang, or in the intelligence communities, they call it blowback. Yankees create terrorism. Yankees create their own problems. Not only are Yankees stupid, but that stupidity makes them terrifying. They like to frame anarchist as reactionaries, but it is really the liberals and the Christofacist that tend to be reactionary, but in their own little ways. It's like you're Sunni and Shia and Trump and his inner circle are... playing you like a fiddle as Rome burns. The rich just care about their status. They have no loyalty to national pride or the betterment of the world that they control. I think they plan on lowering standards and changing norms and kind of running things with a hands off approach but not letting things improve on purpose. The more you know, the angrier you get, and then eventually you get tired. Yeah, Orange Man bad and so every fucking American president ever. Every single social improvement was just the compromise of the rich. They put their nonsense on pause so they can continue with their plans and everything is going according to plan. It's like you gotta pull yourself out of the situation. Look at it from an Eagle's view. But it seems like eagles become vultures. "Love me, love me, I'm a liberal." - Phil Ochs
Hands off is not a good description imo. These right populist movements are always in reaction, like clockwork, to the crises of capital and to the rising need for socialism and general socialist sentiment. Fascists basically started as violent anti communist gangs. We are just beginning im afraid. I agree the modern bourgeoisie has no nation tho. Tough situation indeed.
