In the United States — and the civilizational “West” more broadly — we are a society divided by slogans, propaganda, and social media memes. It is an unfortunate part of our present reality that we no longer engage in honest “public debate.” We haven’t done so for a very long…

Washington’s Latest Big Lie: Iran’s 47-Years War on America
At the center of the White House justification for launching still another Forever War stands the most hideous neocon lie yet. And it’s one that blatantly betrays every campaign promise the Donald ever made on the subject. The latest Big Lie, of course, is that rather than starting another…
Blackmail and Death Threats, Zelensky Embarrasses the EU, But There’s No Condemnation
EU message: you can launder millions, use blackmail and issue death threats. Just don’t make it obvious. The money-laundering Kiev regime has gone from cutting off oil supply for EU member states to now issuing death threats to heads of state – and all that the regime’s…
China: Watching the Missiles Flow
Let’s cut to the chase: BRICS is in deep coma. Blown up, at least temporarily, by India – which happens to host the BRICS summit later this year. Talk about horrendous timing. India has betrayed, sequentially, both full BRICS members Russia and Iran. By sealing its alignment…
After Trump’s War, the U.S. Military Won’t Be Invited Back
The US took billions of military equipment and investment losses last week, most of which were apparently “unexpected” by Pentagon planners.

Trump the Destroyer

From Corruption to Annihilation
It’s the distinct knowledge that nothing is ever going to happen to anyone on the left that drives one mad. The only rational conclusion is that there’s a whole government made up of communists with only slight divisions to keep the majority believing that it can get better.
Corporate Media Go All Out to Support the U.S.-Israeli War on Iran
Corporate media of all stripes have rushed to support the U.S./Israeli attack on Iran, throwing objectivity and accuracy by the wayside in order to manufacture consent for regime change. On February 28, the U.S. and Israel launched a joint attack on Iran, bombing cities across the country,…
MAGA Was a Psy-Op
“Our President will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate — he’s weak and he’s ineffective.” — DJT November 2011. Do you agree with Donald Trump? This has aged extremely well and I 100% agree with Donald. MAGA may go down as…
The Children’s Iran War
While the U.S. wreaks carnage on the Middle East, the Department of Defense is busy putting out embarrassing meme videos. A long-running theme in the right-wing critique of progressive politics in the 2010s was mockery of its reliance on fantasy fiction. Left-leaning commentators appeared to have been…
