    Can NATO propaganda please finally make up its mind if its adversaries are weak and on the brink of collapse or if the poor little US military industrial complex needs to burn the healthcare of a few more million people just to keep pace with scary Russia and China?

      1. The followers must feel humiliated by the ostentatious wealth and force of their enemies. When I was a boy I was taught to think of Englishmen as the five-meal people. They ate more frequently than the poor but sober Italians. Jews are rich and help each other through a secret web of mutual assistance. However, the followers must be convinced that they can overwhelm the enemies. Thus, by a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak. Fascist governments are condemned to lose wars because they are constitutionally incapable of objectively evaluating the force of the enemy.

      There’s actually just one guy, Russirachinorthkorea is his name. Sometimes he changes his name to evade capture but it’s pretty rare. He’s been playing pranks on the U.S. for over seventy years and they’re getting tired of it. He’s really fucking strong though. Idk if 1.7 trillion will be enough to take him out.
