Read through the cheap shots at Biden and Harris early in the piece.

The sanctions and tariffs aren’t to keep the Chinese, Russians, et al out, they’re to keep Americans in.

    anything other than the lens of, “is Russia going to diminish, and State Department prevail, or will it be the other way around.” You’re claiming to care about the people of Venezuela and Ukraine, but it always lines up perfectly coincidentally with what Russian state TV says is the right thing for the people of Venezuela and Ukraine

    You are right that I think that lens is important. You can be sure that the US position is always the most evil, because 1. it is their nature, and 2. they have the most power.

    sees the independent people of Ukraine, Georgia, North Carolina, France, and Palestine as all deserving of setting their own destiny, and views all of their struggle in much the same light. Against oligarchy of all kinds. That’s what seems to be missing from your narrative.

    The freedom of family planning and butt sex, like all freedom, is humanist. Previous US elections considered Israel first rulership with more of those freedoms as having a chance. Israel first rulership this time around needs to “finish the job of genocide”, and so the results were rigged to that despite impossible lies that the US will be reindustrialized with massive tax cuts on oligarchy, freedom from pollution and other restrictions on oligarchy, and regressive tariff taxes that will make costs of living that much more unaffordable for the vast majority of Americans. Plus no more family planning options or butt sex. The enhanced freedom for Americans is limited to the new opportunity to go into a strawberry picking career, and the freedom to be disgusted by other’s butt sex.

    Celebrating democracy because Israel supremacism won, with theatrical Israel supremacist opponent, allowing traitor to escape jail, and allowing media/traitor/GOP to promise lies that will pillage the country for their sponsors is simply celebrating the pillage and collapse of America, in addition to human destruction through energy policy and war, and terrorism vulnerability/costs from anti-human policy (Dems not that much better).

    Worshiping the word “democracy” allows US empire to declare “democracy” for its coups and election rigging which are always purely for pillage/diminishment and control over a country/ally. Often, calling democracy anti-democratic with not just pure baselessness, but intentional demonic disinformation that is integral to diminishment ambitions of “rival countries”. Every Russia and Venezuela election/referendum being prime examples.

    The US Empire is a demonic liar wanting to oppress humanity for its oligarchy. The magical power of words like democracy, rules based world order, and NATO is a purely defensive alliance, is evil magic. Opposing a unipolar US empire is always more humanist, because it always provides people with more options. Georgia could rationally choose to trade with Europe more if didn’t mean complete subjugation to US empire as means to entry. Just as Canada should naturally have/seek good relations with US, Ukraine and Georgia should with Russia.

    What you call my derangement for “better for Russia” rulership choices, I call better for world, and naturally better for people in the region to have good relations with Russia instead of a pawn to sacrifice in US ambitions of diminishing Russia through war. The only path forward for the world is the US accepting its collapse. Every success it has in its desperate flailing clinging to its despotic hegemony is a delay in that acceptance, and a delay to the real freedom of its colonies.

      Sounds like I touched a nerve.

      Anyone who wants to phrase the struggle for real freedom in terms of which hegemon people need to “have good relations” with, is probably lying.

        You are the one who brought up “love your hegemon” and hate the “resistor” justification for always believing hegemon’s use of word democracy.

        My point is that humanism should always matter more than propaganda of “democratic values” used by hegemon, and the hegemon’s power for such propaganda needs to be diminished.
