This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

After reading Indi's recent following articles, I think the way I put it is woefully inadequate for explaining what's going on:

https://indi.ca/the-after-math/

https://indi.ca/the-logistics-war-part-1-the-oil/

https://indi.ca/logistics-war-reserve-fleet/

https://indi.ca/logistics-war-3-the-missile-gulf/

I recommend reading all of them, but if you want a rough TL;DR, I would say the important part as it pertains to what I was saying is: I'm leaving out the grifter angle of things, sans interest in maintaining empire. If we see the empire as first and foremost a profit/power grift, then what happens when people start grifting the empire machine itself? It starts getting hollowed out, rusting, sold for spare parts. Because the point isn't the empire itself but the profit part. Anyway, read Indi if that doesn't make sense.
