A quotation from Henry Commager
What is the new loyalty? It is, above all, conformity. It is the uncritical and unquestioning acceptance of America as it is — the political institutions, the social relationships, the economic practices. It rejects inquiry into the race question or socialized medicine, or public housing, or into the wisdom or validity of our foreign policy. It regards as particularly heinous any challenge to what is called “the system of private enterprise,” identifying that system with Americanism. It abandons evolution, repudiates the once popular concept of progress, and regards America as a finished product, perfect and complete.
Henry Steele Commager (1902-1998) American historian, writer, activist

"Germany is open about its uninhibited support for Israel‘s war of extermination and genocide in Palestine, and wants to make sure the entire world sees it."
"Establishment forces have translated Holocaust remembrance chiefly as support for Israel, elevating its protection to a German Staatsraison (national interest) coupled with zero tolerance for criticism of Israel, which is automatically treated as antisemitism".

#USATerrorism has destroyed countless lives in many different countries & still does. It is NOT the greatest nation in the world. Never has been either. Never will be either.
I don't need to like or respect #Iran government for me to hate USA government. USA continues to start wars & interfere in far away conflicts that they have zero business sticking their exploitive & manipulative noses into.
#FuckTheUSA - #Capitalist #Fascist #Racist state of #corruption & global #terrorism & #ProxyWars. Most of the world already hated US arrogance & their shitty #exceptionalism BS, before Trump. Many more people hate USA now, under his puppeting #USNazi regime.

Re: tariffs, trade wars, and insane rapist degenerates who think they're kings...
The rest of the world probably knows this, but for our #USAnian friends, the single most offensive thing about President Felon's actions in violating our trade agreements with the USA -- trade agreements which *he* signed -- is this little addition:
> An official told the newspaper that these tariffs contained a retaliation
> clause that would ratchet up American tariffs if Mexico, Canada or China
> tried to place their own tariffs on US goods in response."We're going to violate our signed trade agreement, which has the force of law in both our countries, and you're just going to sit there and take it. You can't retaliate in kind or we'll get mad."
*That* is the American "exceptionalism" that the rest of the world hates. The sheer hubris that leads anyone to expect that edict to just be obeyed because We're American is the reason for the world's contempt.
Individual Americans can be, and frequently are, lovely people. But something happens in the aggregate that makes you absolutely insufferable at times. This is one of those times.

"VC qanon" and the radicalization of the tech tycoons - Anil Dash
It's important to remember, nobody becomes a billionaire by accident. You have to have wanted that level of power, control and wealth more than you wanted anything else in your life.
They all 👉 sacrifice family, relationships, stability, community, connection, and belonging in service of keeping score on a scale that actually 👉 yields #no #additional real-world #benefits on the path from that first $100 million to the tens of billions.
👉 So you have a cohort that is, counterintutively, #very #easily #manipulated.
If you have access to a billionaire (and 👉 billionaires all have access to each other, because it suits their ego to think of each other as peers), most are very easy to program by simply playing to their #insecurity and desire for #acknowledgement of #exceptionalism, 👉 and so they push each other further and further into #extreme #ideas because their entire careers have been predicated on the idea that they're genius outliers who can see things others can't, and that their wealth is a reward for that imagined merit.
