      Was gonna say, an ideal world would have an intervention force start from there. Drive them out of Gaza and the West Bank then see how far you can get to 1967 and before, then extract some concessions and enforce terms one the red line is reached. Can’t push all the way since Israel would Samson the world at that point but you can kneecap them to a toothless fascist rump state that will eventually succumb to its contradictions.

      But we live in hellworld where even if the American Empire suddenly disappears, the center of global capital will just move to Europe or India and continue to support Israel’s occupation (albeit that’s only if the crisis of America’s passing doesn’t allow a window of opportunity, and there isn’t a genuine anti-imperialist bloc by then).

    As a leftist

    Let’s take a look at that comment history:

    Oh boo hoo, just because you’re not in the middle class doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist or is unattainable. I’m just a average guy with a regular upbringing, and even having made some poor financial decisions in the past I own my home, boat and car are paid off, even have a cabin. I’m under 40. Pretty much all my friends are definitively middle class, and the ones struggling all made really poor choices. Like I said I support increasing minimum wage by a lot, and increased safety nets, increased tax on the wealthy (and I don’t just mean billionaires), but all the “poor me there’s zero opportunity in America” Reddit mantra is laughable if you just step outside and look around for a second.

    I ain’t reading all that. But yes, I’m 1000% sure you’re a right wing (slur removed) desperately clinging to some fantasy that things are so horrible under Biden. Spoiler: if things are that horrible for you right now, you’re basically a loser that would be sucking at life under any political party. Most of us are doing great, just step outside in literally any American state (especially outside of red rural shitholes) and you’ll be surrounded by people driving expensive cars, pulling expensive toys, from their nice houses. Sorry that ain’t you, maybe work harder.

    Muh bootstraps

    Lots of comments on r/joerogan too. Least reactionary “I’m a leftist, butt” guy.
