the ends justify the means but what justifies the ends?
It did not start oct. 7 it started back in 1948-1947
Reminds me of 9/11 and the Iraqi war.
3,000 souls for 250,000 souls
The Iraqi war wasn’t related to 9/11 at all. It was about oil and finishing what daddy started.
If I’m following OPs logic, you can bomb a country for years, invade, take their people hostage, get attacked back, not surrender, don’t negotiate and prioritize PR above the lives of your people.
When the war is over what will they have gained?
are you talking about Israel or Hamas? because damn, it’s hard to differentiate between the two terrorist organizations.
It’s basic fascist logic. Which as the GOP in the US has shown us, you don’t need to be fascist to use. “Our chosen enemy is both cowardly/weak and an existential threat at the same time.”
Eh, they aren’t quite there yet. There are definitely fascists in the party but I think the party as a whole is going to go more authoritarian theocracy. The difference being, if you play their religious game you might just avoid a concentration camp. Whereas in Fascism you are your label and that’s it. A few other big differences but mostly the same for the people on the ground.
This is the biggest hand-wring, semantic gargling I’ve ever seen. What is “authoritarian theology” but making a deity out of the control structure. Nazis used Jesus, too.
They’re facists. The fact they tried over turning the election on J6 with the fake electors proves it completely, they do not point to Jesus, they point to procedure. That’s what a fascist does. Making the Constitution into a religious text is some of the most fascist shit ever, they successfully bind the propaganda structure used to prop up the injustice to an emotional spiritual feeling of righteousness. Its fascism.
And how if you listen to russia, Ukraine is both a marionette of the West and a secret mastermind orchestrating the worldwide conspiracy
Which hilariously is also antisemitic while also accusing them of being Nazis.
