    And then the yanks spent the following 80 years propping up fascism all over the world.

    Oh hell yeah. Neverending war. Hasn’t changed one iota… War industrialists are among the vilest humans on the planet.

    I remember hearing the jets taking off - some 35 miles away - from my dad’s farm in the hills, when Reagan invaded Grenada. Every 30 seconds. for hours as they did a bug out and mass movement of equipment to support the operation. All night long. Was in High School then, and nothing has changed since then.

    You really want that death for America to happen?

    Kill consumerism.

    This imperialism continues because it’s the only way to keep the economy moving.

        Consumerism is the engine of capitalism. You can have consumerism in a socialist society and will still have the violence.

        People want their materialistic shit and will allow death, destruction and degradation - somewhere else - for it to happen.
