It's been another great week in America! For Putin and Xi Jinping.

Those who benefit from the decline of the United States need not do anything, as this government rapidly destroys its own hegemony.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

American politics selects for men like this. You can see how unwell he is. We can all see it.
Stephen Miller goes on a rant defending Trump's imperialist aggression against Venezuela: "We’re a superpower… we are going to conduct ourselves as a superpower."

The New York Times continues to have no integrity but keep giving them money and attention I suppose, because who gives a shit, right?

American mainstream media is just as bad as state-controlled Chinese or Russian media. Zero integrity, just blatant manufacture of consent.

Look at the difference in how the #NewYorkTimes covers illegal acts of war, when Russia does it vs when the US does it.

The United States has no justice system. Its legal system is a pay-to-win game.

As such, this violent empire and all its elite institutions will betray its every professed value, and then it will die, with a memory to be spat on for the rest of human history.

Did you know? Every year, the Supreme Court’s nine justices fill out a form that discloses their financial connections to companies and people.

Our database allows you to search for organizations and people that have paid them, reimbursed them for travel and given them gifts.

Under the global systems we have, you can openly commit genocide and still make billions selling goods and services that make the world a more violent place.

Because it's totally true, I like to say that the opposite of consent is tech company.

With the persistence of a bratty child and the ethos of a rapist, Google is basically an addict, trying to prolong its high from the "AI" bubble that it created by endlessly forcing bullshit down our throats.
