Wait until he learns about all the land America stole from the first peoples that occupied this continent.

The irony here is that land re-appropriation was written into their constitution and Mandela was supposed to move forward with it and never did nearly to the extent that was mandated. So he left that problem for the next generation. I understand that he wanted to move forward with healing the country but it was a band-aid that needed to be ripped off.

If the USA is going to go the route of retracting empire by dismantling their military network globally to focus more on it's regional issues then they got a bigger problem. Currently the military and the military Industrial Complex (MIC) are America's make-work program. They employ roughly 10% of America's workforce directly and so many of those industries are supported indirectly by the rest of the economy. If you shrink that by 1% you likely will see everything else shrink by twice as much. That's not even including the military itself.

What you are proposing would be devastating to the economy. Sure, it needs to happen. The American Empire must crumble, inshallah. To say this is some measured, rational plan is as foolish as the actions themselves in the manner they are being done. So we can rest assured that all of this is reactionary, impulsive thrashing and can predict all the harm that causes.

What really puts the nail in the coffin for this is our big boogeyman is China and BRICS. If this guy was right then we would basically be handing them everything they ever wanted. But clearly we aren't because we are threatening them and kicking and screaming over everything they do, especially China. So as usual its just NGO Thinktank psuedobabble.

It's only good to block freeways if you are a gusano.

Yup. It's already a part of the process. Nothing extra to add except start collecting on the new rates.

"We" is a pronoun that includes himself. And yes, he can't be honest about them because they aren't white. Due to his overwhelming racist biases.

It's just "cultural bolshivism" repackaged for the modern era. As always it's fascist nonsense. And fascist nonsense is always there to protect the elite from criticism.

jordan peterson is not an atheist, though? he plays like he is but when asked he clumsily dodges the question as if he does not want to confirm it. i think he found that his grift works better if he plays the "questioning atheist" part

i totally get that but a competent leader could pull that off without gumming up the investigation by symbolically visiting it
