Far-right ideologues have transformed American foreign policy into a tool of private gain and antidemocratic reaction.

    Sure. It’s MAGA doing that. MAGA made sure no one went to prison for the LIBOR. It was MAGA that made Obama bail out the banksters when they took advantage of the deregulation in the industry that MAGA forced Clinton to push through.

    Honestly, I thought TDS was some bullshit, but it’s getting harder and harder to hold that position when the last 6 months I’ve seen more articles blaming MAGA for shit the US has been doing for decades than I’ve seen in my whole life.

      Not saying Dems are great, almost all of our government is bought and paid for, but fuck you anyway for even standing next to a defense for MAGA. The corruption happening in this administration is unlike ANYTHING that has ever occured before and YOU would have to be moron to think any different.

        I didn’t say MAGA wasn’t more corrupt. I said that MAGA wasn’t making the world safer for corruption because the Western international elite across all parties have been keeping the world safe for corruption for several centuries and we have egregious examples like international bankers literally colluding at the highest level to fix the LIBOR rate or the 2008 global financial crisis and who exactly was prosecuted?

        The Western world was safe for corruption long before MAGA became a thing.

            I know, because it seems like people are starting to get so deranged that we’re just supposed to ignore reality in service of pretending like MAGA invented evil in the US

      MAGA is the cancer that neolibs like Obama refused to excise when they had the chance. Still fucking cancer though, dimwit.
