‘Basically what we're seeing with the police raid on Asa Winstanley is the west finally reconciling (A) its need to suppress speech that's critical of western warmongering with (B) its stated support for free speech.’ Caitlin Johnstone x.com/caitoz/statu...

Reminder. Not only does Israel want to occupy Lebanon, it's the Left Wing that is warmongering.

With a left that wants to occupy Lebanon, Israel lacks a true alternative to Netanyahu | Opinion

Both racist and warmongering, close enough

I have no idea how Bluesky decides what's "rude" and what's not. I've seen people say much, much worse (i.e. overt racism/warmongering) without getting flagged, yet yours did. You're completely correct, though.

Has Skynews put Netanyahu on a loop, or is he saying the same warmongering threats over and over again, taking such delight in someone's death? Of course his war isn't over - the moment the war is over, he will be out of a job. Not a moment too soon please.

(Not that Israel itself is safe, between the political climate, the rising tide of extremism, warmongering and messianic zealotry and uuuuh constant rockets. living between rock and a hard place.)

Do you recall the Bush/Cheney warmongering about the threat of terrorism in 2004? They invented a stupid "alert chart" and used that to dupe voters. Similar BS is currently being used to distort the polling averages. 2/..

So utterly different from the divisive aristocratic warmongering nonsense that’s usually spouted in favour of national identity (esp. Englishness). Well crafted comedy is an antidote to all that: a reserve of quirky, gentle often self-depreciating stuff.

The key takeaway is here - Biden's neo-conservative Foreign Policy is not where the public is at, and partisan liberals would rather hand-wave that away with racist innuendo about "Russian bot farms" and "Iranian active measures", but the truth is warmongering is a vote-loser in the USA

Text from the New Republic article reads: 

"Biden’s vacillation has been matched by an inability to articulate an attractive or even coherent new strategy for a new era. His unofficial slogan—repeated at summits and diplomatic engagements early in his term—was often said to be “America is back.” But it might be more apt to say that all the old foreign policy ideas are back, whether they are suited for the world of today or not. Biden’s foreign policy has been conventional and rhetorically committed to the notion of America as the indispensable nation. Like Sullivan’s and Blinken’s op-eds, though, it rings hollow.

Biden’s approach isn’t just a foreign policy problem. For all the flaws of Donald Trump’s “America First” approach to foreign policy, polling suggests that the public largely prefers it to Biden’s muscular American primacy. Voters rank democracy low among their top foreign policy concerns, for example, and a significant majority support a negotiated settlement in Ukraine. This administration’s failure to offer a Democratic-leaning alternative to the foreign policy overreach of the last few decades—and Harris’s choice to double down on Biden’s policies in her campaign—in many ways cedes the foreign policy issue almost entirely to the Trump campaign."
