        It strengthens everything marxists have ever said and weakens liberals. The left is going to grow.

        It’s also generally a weaker way to do imperialism, the resistance in Venezuela will be stronger, unity will be higher, and “fuck the US” energy will be larger. Liberals would have done the exact same list of demands but kept this behind closed doors leading to a significantly more divided opponent.

        The US empire has ceased trying to manufacture consent for their imperialist wars of aggression. This is in large part because they’re no longer able to do so. The unipolar moment is over and we’re witnessing a crumbling empire lash out in its final push for hegemony.

          Oh no, they are definitely manufacturing consent. Now it’s the liberal media that’s doing the double work because the conservative media has gone full mask off.

            Neoliberal mainstream media go brrrrr. The state isn’t bothering to hide behind it any longer. Everything Trump, Rubio, Hegseth, Miller say contradicts what is being published in these rags.

    I feel like Rachel Maddow said “follow the money” enough times that one of the libs would do exactly that.

    Trump is ultimately loyal to himself, above even his horrible children. He will do anything to stay out of prison. Succeeding that, he will do anything to personally enrich himself. Succeeding that he will go on to satisfy his more base, carnal urges. That is the hierarchy of the man.

    However, no country could or would give as much to Donald Trump as this stupid country has. This is the nursery of idiocy that incubated him. Does that mean he has loyalty to the United States? No, it just means he’s comfortable here, and he realizes this is the place that gives him the most. He knows it. He’s like “ha ha build my dying body a ball room, you idiots” and it happens. Motherfucker tries to overthrow the government and they just shrug at him and tell him not to do it again. Putin could literally do the homophobic liberal fantasy of sucking his putrid fucking cock and he would be receiving no better treatment in Russia than he already fucking gets here.

    If he’s satisfied the morons in his orbit can pursue whatever pet project of imperialism and he will love it all. He’s just not smart enough to think of it all himself. But he will sign off on it and love it and approve of it and gloat about it.

    I haven’t even touched materialism or Marxism the libs have the tools in their toolbox to suss this shit out. Yet here we fucking stand, year of our lord 2026
