Like they're Asian in a cultural sense? That rather than having a European mentality of respecting human rights (caveat: does not apply w/r/t genocide of non-whites), while the Rooskies have the "Oriental" mentality described by Gen. Westmoreland as "[not putting] the same high price on life as the westerner"?
Obama thinks the president should have a laser focus on the war on Iran, and leave the side hustles for when he's out of power and grateful capital can shower him with speaking fees, no-show jobs, and tv shows. That's the correct way to do it, unlike this unseemly open corruption.
So basically this article is saying that the only reason that Iran won the war is ~disinformation~, and that if the state had more control of information (censorship), we would all know the beautiful truth: America actually totally won the war and the reich will last 1,000 years.
It's definitely a good idea to associate gay rights with imperialism, certainly can't backfire in any way. Gay rights sink refugee boats before they can cross the Mediterranean. Gay rights bomb America's enemies into submission and render them failed states with slave markets. Gay rights are the boot on the neck of the third world.
My point here is that whoever made this should be hanged.
e: or to put it a different way "let's bring the gays down with us!"
Fuck if I know, but seems to me that intelligence is more than just reacting to stimulus. The problem is we've broken the Turing test. We've made a computer that can sound sentient, but clearly isn't.
Let me put it this way: if I were the president of the United States I would increase foreign aid rather than gutting it, and the aid would primarily be for development so that in the future, they would not be reliant on foreign aid. This was not the purpose of USAID, all the good that it did was just a byproduct of keeping the developing world as dependent resource extraction colonies.
Allow me a metaphor. If you give a man a fish, he'll be fed for a day; if you teach a man to fish, he'll be full for his whole life. Obviously the just thing would be to give him enough fish to eat until he's learned to fish, and then teach him to fish. USAID was more like giving the man a bare-minimum amount of fish to keep him from dying, but the fish is dosed with little bit of fentanyl to keep him dependent and compliant while you steal his stuff.
USAID was a trojan horse. The supposedly benevolent acts were always a cover for undermining governments the US is hostile to. USAID had a literacy program in Afghanistan in the 80s that promoted violent jihad, in order to undermine the Soviets and the Soviet-aligned government. They used an HIV prevention workshop in Cuba to organize anti-communist dissidents.
The fact that the USAID cuts have already killed hundreds of thousands of people is testament to the amount of dependence the US had nurtured. They prop up right wing kleptocratic governments that do nothing for the people, which keeps wages low and resources cheap, and made up some of the shortfall with aid since people who are dead of starvation or disease can't extract resources. This was a trap.
The current crop of right wingers are too stupid to understand this and thought it was just woke liberals giving stuff away for free to be woke. Out of what they thought was merely an act of selfish cruelty (what they refer to as "based"), they are actually undermining the American empire. The proximate effect of this is in the literal sense mass murder (and if you combine this with the fact that they nurtured dependence on aid and then abruptly cut it off, could be argued to be genocide) and it should be punished accordingly. The ultimate effect, however, will be the liberation of the third world.
