When faced with domestic/personal political problems, an easy method to sideline & slowly solve them, is to start or escalate #war.

It shifts the public conversation, changes the legal & political environment /interests, eases expanded military action at home, & creates opportunities to reward & align with certain factions (oligarchs, corporations, #military leaders).

Here are my thoughts and analysis on the subject in the shape of a table.

What do you think?

Took me a while to make this :)

Please share if you think this makes sense!

*Focusing on recent / ongoing conflicts!

The USA is crumbling KGB Putin wants his revenge. The world is sick of yankees intervention....and aggression, for we have no respect in regaurds to national sovereignty. We are a leach. We have no value. There is always corruption and every state kills. That is the nature of the state. This is why anarchist types and some communist want to abolish the state. It is what it is. This means nothing to me.

The USA is, even before trump a brutal imperialist empire. Fascist are the useful idiots of empire. Fascism is capitalism in crisis and imperialism is its highest form. In regaurds to the spectrum... the yankees in both parties are fascist. On the global chess board this is what we represent. What we are experiancing in yankkkeeeland is the imperial boomerang. Also you forgot Genocidal Joe... you know sleepy Joe Biden is he hiding, his aids are afraid he is gonna look even more like a jack ass. Where am I Joe. Another bump on the head dementia Joe. Deep state automatic lets just plunder Urkraine and snatch people of the streets to die for USA Corporations adventurous Imperialist Wars Joe. . Just sittin there mumbling joe joe. Smoking crack, making deals, selling farmland to the sudis, 1/3 of the population left only to have Europe send them back to die Joe Biden. You remeber him? Cause I do! These yankee soldiers are gonna come back and cause all types of hell. The dollar is now less 1/2 of what it used to be and before that we were already screwed. The tea leaves are telling me fascism is here to stay and the liberals were the lubricant of our decay. Welcome to the lumpkin pumpkin... not yet give it time. Thank gawd all men die.

I think what's interesting is Putin, Stalin, Hitler and Natanyahu all gained power through controlling access to higher level people.

Every last one of them started out as a lame glorified secretary before their final transformation.

or senator like sleepy joe jo or family in the CIA clown emperor George W. Bush. Ya'll either wet behind the ears or bad actors. SNAP SNAP or need to pay attention. We have always been like this.

I put out a relevant point about power and you politicized this in favor of the game show host like a simp. You should probably speak when spoken to until you acquire better listening skills.

Easy: They're all Catholic by proxy or Jesuit. All three are Jewish by faith, two of them being fake Khazar Jews, two of them having their names changed strategically (Trump being a Von Kemp, Netanyahu being a Mileikowsky), one being German (Trump/Von Kemp), all three are Christofascist.
