If liberals didn't have meaningless smug platitudes with no substance, they would have nothing whatsoever with which to drown out their denial.
Hm no you're right, better to let millions starve
Money is imaginary
When was the last time you voted on whether to invade another country, or double the price of food, or to turn something as simple and basic as health care into a luxury commodity until people can't afford to have teeth? I don't remember voting to let covid rip, or give tanks and murder robots to the cops, or to ignore climate change for decades. I was never consulted on if we should have the world's largest system of prison slavery.
All of these decisions were made for us, at our expense, because they made the donor class more money, and we live in a dictatorship of the rich.

The proverbial chickens are coming home to roost
Because companies make money off it, which means they have incentives to push people into suicide instead of looking for ways to make their lives better
Heavily armed cops plowing through red lights and crosswalks in their cars, at that.
My early childhood was spent listening to all the "reasonable, smart grownups" turn into wretched war hogs who would snarl that we need to glass the entire middle east, and now nobody talks about the genocidal invasions we carried out after that, everybody pretends they didnt cheer it on. And now that its politically convenient, now that one lone Christian fundamentalist psycho can make shit up and have the entire state apparatus repeat it, now they're pretending to care about muslim people, because it gives them a reason to snarl that we should glass China. These bloodthirsty freaks have no real values other than the voyueristic thrill of watching our war machine grind people to paste on their screens. Ask them what their "solution" would be for this "problem" and watch the Hitler particles start to glow as they suggest a coup, an invasion, bombings. Yet they're the ones who think they have any footing to lecture communists about humane treatment. As far as I know they're still forcibly sterilizing women in our many ICE concentration camps.
Classic rookie mistake. All you have to do, every time you leave your house, is the incredibly normal thing of keeping a running tally of what around you is cover and what is concealment.
Ontologically sauceless
I mean it's literally what happened. It implies a bit of a rosy anthromorphization of the many varied and impersonal security interests that lead a nation-state to war, sure, but factually speaking, that's how it went down.
