@TheAliceSmith Millions of lives are improved through infrastructure and security each year Taxation is a bargain when it comes to paying for that

Millions of lives are ruined through taxation every year. It’s time to end the cruelty.

@Partisan_12 Empires fight to destroy challengers, not to win wars We haven't even declared war or signed a peace treaty since WWII

When a "superpower" begins bombing schools, hospitals, bridges, universities, and residential buildings, it indicates that they have been defeated. In their frustration over this defeat, they are resorting to war crimes to vent their anger.

@PrezLives2022 Distrusting (or at least being deeply skeptical of) your government is always warranted Loving your country is also always warranted This is not a contradiction

As Americans we have spent all our lives being patriotic and supporting every war most of the time rooting for our military to win and come back safe. Over time we start to realize that we are always at war and our representatives either vote for war or give our president Carte Blanche to war without approval. We come to realize that our government goes to war so a few can get rich. They create an enemy out of thin air so they can go to war and steal their resources. A simple look through history shows how many democracies were cancelled by us because we could not profit off their nationalized resources. We did it in Iran in 53 and we did it in Venezuela just recently. Neither country was a threat to us. Many are outraged that we would root for Iran when their outrage should be at their corrupt administration. The evidence shows Iran was never a threat. There comes a time when rooting against your country is a wake up call that the corrupt administration must be removed because they are bankrupting us, they have isolated us, and turned the world against us. The time is now to say no more billionaires making the decisions for us. The time is now to remove all occupying forces from our government. If not now, then it’s time to hand in our freedom card, because we will never need it again. The Techies and the Zionists will own us forever. Iran is warning us, China is warning us, and now the world is warning us. This is why some of us listen and root for this administration to lose this war.

@SamanthaLaDuc We have been under a military coup in the US since Nov 1963

Israel continues to target & kill Iranian diplomats so they remove any chance of peace talks. As our half-cocked Hegseth removes US Generals who resist Trump-Netanyahu’s growing list of war crimes. We are a RogueNation defending RogueMoney led by a RogueGrifter who covets other nation’s resources under the lie of energy & nuclear security. It is disgusting so many support, enable & applaud this military state/coup, and unpatriotic/imperial reach that is the source of escalating war crimes & totally avoidable suffering. Everything Jesus died for is on display by the US and Israel. Their acts and intentions are wholly anti-Christian. Easter hits a different way this year. I pray for peace and a US Congress that grows a pair.

@uTobian They want it ALL Yet they bleat about how the economy is not a finite pie

This is the saddest era in human history. We have everything one could want — electricity, running water, heat and air conditioning, homes, roads, schools, parks. Yet the ruling class and the bougiecrats are engaged in a humanicide because they always want MOAR for themselves.

@GinaSaysSo Political parties were invented expressly for the purpose of stealing (harvesting) your political power

The lunacy of a two-party system is how easily it allows our government to manipulate 300 million people by drawing attention to and widening the division between us. These vampires harness their power this way. We’ve been played, friends, all this time.

@420GHz The upper class has always been at war with the rest of us. This is thevvery foundation of western government and society

Housing, healthcare, education, infrastructure, food, water, and peace are not luxuries—they’re the baseline of a sane society. Any system that treats them as optional is structurally broken. Workers deserve better. #WorkersRights #SystemChange

@BladeoftheS That isn't true. It goes to doctors, nurses, and scads of others but most of it does not go back to the government

Let me explain Universal Healthcare. It doesn't matter how much it costs, because if all the money goes to Nurses, Doctors, Hospitals and treatments run by the Government all that money goes back to the Government. So it cannot be unaffordable. The real problem, no profits

@JamesWebb_16 Iran has held back and refrained from using chemical weapons, but they will if we threaten them existentially

I just heard from a source very close to top of the White House that, following today’s shootdown of an F-15, an A-10, and the successful hits on multiple helicopters and other aircraft, the WH is choosing further escalation, including US troops on the ground. This would be madness. I truly hope that someone in the Pentagon or elsewhere can prevent this from happening. If anything was proven today, it’s that Iranian AD is still very capable and very intact. Any US ground operation will be heavily reliant on helicopters and other slow-moving airframes. Despite the assertions of both the Pentagon and POTUS, it is crystal clear that we have not reduced Iranian AD to the point where a ground operation is even a remotely wise decision. Let alone potentially inserting by air and then being exclusively reliant on an air corridor for things such as resupply and CASEVAC. History is replete with examples where this reliance has been disastrous. Further, the hard part would be after troops were on the objective. Our lack of manpower leaves little room for maneuver, and once static (which would be required), Americans will become a stationary target for the entire inventory of Iranian indirect fire capabilities on Iranian soil, and it is a recipe for failure. Simply put, this is not an existential war for the US's survival. It’s a war of choice that should never have happened in the first place, and POTUS should be finding a way out, rather than clumsily and recklessly sacrificing America’s finest.

Watching Israel move into Lebanon, seizing land, destroying everything, and imposing ethnic cleansing on Shia Muslims- to the extent that Druse and Christian Lebanese HIDE their Muslim neighbors- is like watching Germany roll into Czechoslovakia in 1939, while the world yawns.

@oneKing4me To keep the empire rolling along another few years

They stole our gold in the 1930s. They took the world off gold in the 1970s. (Also theft) And now the U.S. government has run up a debt it can never repay—and has no intention of doing so. So why do the American people pay taxes?

@AlternatNews Airstrikes are destructive and weaken your opponent considerably But they are expensive, ineffectual and cowardly, incapable of winning wars

The US has run out of targets in Iran. They have bombed every military installation several times, but it does not make sense to drop another bomb on their ruins. This is typical of all air attacks. They can destroy or weaken defenses, but they never defeat a country. This is when the old saying creeps in: “If the only tool in your toolbox is a hammer, then all your problems look like nails.” Blowing up the bridge under construction is typical. It does not help at all in winning the war. It is just another “nail,” just like the schools and medical facilities that the US has bombed: “nails for their hammer”. This is a sign of weakness. This is how the My Lai massacre in Vietnam happened. The US bombed all military and civilian targets: no victory. They dropped Agent Orange to poison the land: no victory. They dropped napalm to burn the people: no victory. They killed all the men in an area: no victory. Out of frustration they killed all the women and all the children in My Lai: no victory. The Vietnam thinking is still alive in America. “We are bombing them back into the Stone Age” is the current embodiment of the Vietnam strategy. The US lost the Vietnam War (had to flee) and they will lose the Iran war too (flee from all bases in the Middle East). Pointing at the destroyed bridges, hospitals and schools in Iran is not a sign of victory; it is like pointing to the dead children in My Lai.

Bill Gates: "Due to advances in AI, humans will no longer be needed." "Will we still need humans? "Not for most things. We'll decide." Bill Gates is a bigger threat to your future than Iran.

@kmbiamnozie Your post is as credible as $40k per month The US negotiates while it plots assassination attempts and decapitation strikes Nobody will pity the soldiers in harms way

To the government and people of Iran, please and please, do not hurt or harm our soldiers, most of these men are surviving on less than $40k a month, they are fighting this war against their conscience, do not kill the pilots. You have shown moral superiority and maturity throughout this conflict and hopefully it will come to an end soon.

@BladeoftheS Israel would pass legislation to hang all POW

If Iran captures American military personel they are Prisoners of War and Iran is legally entitled to keep them under the Geneva Conventions until such a time as the USA makes a deal for their safe return. They are not 'hostages'.

@Harrisbro777 Both sides are quickly depleting their most strategic weapons with the exception of chemical, biological and nuclear.

@Handre We have two entirely separate economies, both nearly equal in size. The financial establishment economy and the goods and services economy Both are on different trajectories and the former is parasitic to the latter

Manufacturing productivity has exploded over the past century, yet your groceries cost more every month. How is this possible? When manufacturers deploy robots and AI systems, they slash production costs dramatically. A Tesla factory produces cars with 90% fewer human hours than traditional automakers. Semiconductor fabs churn out chips that would have cost millions to produce in the 1970s for pennies today. Basic economic theory says falling costs should mean falling prices across the economy. The disconnect emerges from central bank money printing. The Federal Reserve has expanded the money supply by over 300% since 2008 alone. This freshly created money flows first to banks, government contractors, and asset holders—bidding up prices before productivity gains can reach consumers. You're caught in a tug-of-war between deflationary technology and inflationary monetary policy. Real-world evidence abounds. Computing power follows Moore's Law downward while housing, healthcare, and education (all heavily government-influenced sectors) skyrocket. Food prices climb despite agricultural automation. The Cantillon Effect strikes again—those closest to the money printer capture the benefits while working families face higher costs despite living in the most productive era in human history. Central bankers claim they're fighting deflation, but deflation from increased productivity represents genuine prosperity. When prices fall because you can produce more with less, everyone wins. When central banks counteract this natural process with monetary expansion, they're literally stealing the benefits of human ingenuity from ordinary people and redistributing them to the financial class.

@420GHz Since nov 63 the US government has been ruled by a military coup Our government is not ours

There is no higher priority on the U.S. agenda than affordable housing, universal healthcare, a true living wage, free education, modern infrastructure, clean food and water, and peace. Any representative not prioritizing these basic needs at the highest level must be removed.

@dlLambo With the exception of the US who does all that and more But what makes Israel most dangerous is their power rooted deep inside the wests financial empire where it is nearly impossible to dislodge without tearing our civilization apart

Israel is now more dangerous than Nazi germany was. A deep ideological hatred of all around them with a desire to seize lands. Fully armed by the West and with legal impunity. Nuclear armed and a total religious supremacist outlook. The most dangerous entity to ever exist.
