This is unfolding more like WWI than WWII, regional wars to establish imperial dominance are escalating beyond their stated goals as different spheres of influence start colliding into each other. The American Hitler will be an opportunist former DSA member who latches onto nationalist discontent says “let’s do that again, but more intentionally!”
China is playing the role in this world war that the US played in the first one. The most progressive among the great powers (arguably a true statement in 1914 for the US even despite the apartheid and ongoing genocide, because we’re comparing to tsarist Russia and the British empire here), booming economy, untested but highly advanced military, in the midst of popular domestic reforms. They will hold out for as long as possible before joining the war and receive the fewest casualties, and then take a leadership position in reshaping the post war order.
Plus, the only reason they’re numbered is because there was two of them back to back. Otherwise, WWI would have just been called “the war”, which I expect will be the way this one is talked about by the generation that lives through it
Now that’s what I call a materialist analysis
That’s a Coen brothers movie too, somehow
The non crazy Christians have been screaming about this for years too, these people are dangerous
She’s less principled and less polished than Mamdani, but the WI Democratic party is on the verge of being dominated by fairly radicalized social democrats if people like her keep building the movement. The state legislature has a small but growing socialist caucus (obviously not the revolutionary kind) and “normal” Democrats don’t seem to undermine them the way other state parties do. The culture of Wisconsin gives me a lot of revolutionary pessimism, so I’ll take what I can get
This is just referring to Spanish as a language, I instinctively assumed this phrase originated in Latin America
Christian Zionism is a form of millenarianism
Look up what George Washington was doing in Ohio before the revolution
They flipped the food pyramid? Wasn’t that a South Park bit?
It is filling without any carbs. Shits nasty though, just eat beans
They’re stripping masks where masks wouldn’t be advised to be stripped.
That’s the best way to put it. My feelings exactly
They’ve been playing Jenga since the 70s, this is definitely the endgame. Just remember the scale of the timeline, the “endgame” could last 10+ years, as much as 
is slamming the table. In the end, the tower will fall and they will lose (that doesn’t mean we will win, necessarily, but they will 100% lose eventually)
The PSL has motion, they’ve been super active even in my Midwest backwater
I think Miller is the closest but he has negative charisma
Playing risk with the strategy of an eight year old, just keep pushing until you run out of moves and leave yourself no defense. Venezuela, Iran, Mexico, Greenland, wherever. Just spread it as thin as you can, it makes the map look big!
Even then, Libyans killed Qaddafi. This feels more like a Saddam situation, the US owns this mess
Most people aren’t very politically educated, and have a lot of “USA! USA!” brainworms. Viewed in the context of previous wars, to have such low popular support in the first few days of a new war is virtually unheard of. It normally takes months or years of seeing the actual carnage on the news before the average US citizen decides that war is bad. Give it time, these numbers are only going to go down from here.
