    The most impressive part is how this isn’t even informed by US imperialism. It’s in the US’s interest to stop the genocide in Gaza and prevent costly wars that could cripple global trade. Them funneling guns into Ukraine is probably the best return on investment they could ask for. It’s foreign interests keeping the Democrats with Israel and the Republicans with Russia.

        Having been on reddit too much the past few weeks, this is very refreshing.

        These days, all the Reddit moderation is performed by Russian and Chinese troll farms and alt-right recruiters. And anything goes as long as it erodes faith in western, multicultural democracy.

        So it’s nice to see someone say, “Democrats are puppets, BUT ALSO! Republicans are the threat we must currently fight.”
