The most impressive part is how this isn't even informed by US imperialism. It's in the US's interest to stop the genocide in Gaza and prevent costly wars that could cripple global trade. Them funneling guns into Ukraine is probably the best return on investment they could ask for. It's foreign interests keeping the Democrats with Israel and the Republicans with Russia.

Almost like both parties are morally corrupt and owned by external interests...

(note: making a basic observation that is negative of both parties DOES NOT and NEVER means both parties are equally bad)

We've got A LOT of cleanup to do, and that's after we get fascists out of office.

Having been on reddit too much the past few weeks, this is very refreshing.

These days, all the Reddit moderation is performed by Russian and Chinese troll farms and alt-right recruiters. And anything goes as long as it erodes faith in western, multicultural democracy.

So it's nice to see someone say, "Democrats are puppets, BUT ALSO! Republicans are the threat we must currently fight."

Also, it's mostly weapons that would have to be decommissioned and the money mostly goes to american companies making new modern weapons to replace them.
