More intellectual property enforcement is not good, even if it's done to people you don't like. Because it's also going to be brought down on you

the empire is a machine of blood, destruction, and death. The libs may be too naive to recognize it, but leftists cannot afford such luxury
hm, honestly it might not be a bad idea for Iran to just wait and let the zionists sit in fear waiting for the other shoe to drop. They've taken a bunch of disruptive measures like GPS jamming their own major cities, effectively neutering civilian travel especially air and sea. Surely they won't be able to do that long term and then they can hit them hard when they eventually let their guard down again. And if they really do want to use an iranian attack to justify a rafah invasion, well they are delaying such an invasion by waiting as well, which is going to piss off the IDF and hardliners.
Of course Iran has domestic pressure to retaliate soon as well, so waiting too long may just make them look weak. Still, the fear they are cultivating in the enemy is something they could take advantage of.
“But in the name of oversimplified market efficiency, a large non-market economy had been integrated into the international economic order in a way that posed considerable challenges.”
My servant of capital you integrated them. You pushed them to join the WTO 24 years ago. You called it a triumphal moment. You assumed China was "destined" to open up their market to imperial exploitation (again) when they did so. But China knew your game the whole time and beat you at it 
Funny how as soon as "free trade" means America loses profitablity they immediately rip it up. This is a fundamental repudiation of liberal orthodoxy and history
who would have thought handing over your internal security apparatus to the most psycho fascist guy would be such a risk?
Definitely, they had to do something. I'd even call this a relatively tame response.
Interviewer: "Yes, I watched your epic almost five hour debate you had with Benny Morris and Mouin Rabbani, and..."
Norman: "...and something else"
LMAO 
absolutely brutal disrespect
a capitalist society without growth is a failed society that will quickly be overthrown. It absolutely depends on growth, what incentive is there to invest capital otherwise?
how does any of that make them "bourgeoisie" or the "privileged elite"? Nations have different political systems, you shouldn't expect them all to be organized like the corrupt American system unless you are an imperialist. And it's particularly offensive to want to impose American political values on Cuba, a former American colony who righteously broke free of those chains.
I'm telling y'all Iran is just going to keep the Zionist entity waiting and sweating in suspense. They can make a move on their own time, not according to some western prediction. So I ain't buying the hype coming out rn even if I got rinsed on Russia a couple years ago.
There's an old saying in Tennessee, I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee, that says, fool me once, shame on... shame on you. Fool me... you can't get fooled again.
