Probably in reference to Fox News advocating the USA "burn some bridges" with Denmark by "liberating" Greenland, the dumb fucking assholes.

Probably in reference to the last 50 or more years of the USA.

More like 15,000 years of mankind. There's a whole "evil advisor" literary trope going back centuries.

Or all the energy we are investing into war, currently. Not healthcare, not education. War.

Because war is easy to sell to your mouth breathing electorate.

There's a big bad guy causing all your problems! Let me be strong and kill him. And while I do, I'll make sure immigrants don't take your jobs.

War is can be very profitable, especially if you are selling to both sides.

The classic is regime change to prevent the WMDs (use all those expensive bombs up), and then rebuilding contracts and a sweet deal on oil, rare earths, and security.

I love how everyone involved in that just got a pass for lying about that. Like they started a war that killed hundreds of thousands, not to mention all the blood and treasure we pissed down that hole. And as a consequence? They got rich. Just fucking embarrassing....

I mean, it is, it's just slightly less blatant. Every newspaper in Europe with corporate backing has been preparing the groundwork for a forever war with Russia, and don't even get me started with the Americans (they're experts at it, what's an empire without pillaging and conquest?!).

[–] Rothe@piefed.social 4 points 1 week ago

Ah yes, every newspaper in Europe and certainly not the actions of Putin has been preparing the groundwork for a forever war with Russia.
