With US out of NATO, it is a point closer to Europe to threaten Europe.

The US has Britain, which is essentially a US client state these days.

ushering in the last 16 years of radicalization

Accepting fascism is "radical" now?

A lot of these are perfectly naive.

It, for example, assumes that mass media wasn't being controlled beforehand (it always is) and that corporate power wasn't being protected beforehand (it always is).

Fascism is not some aberration of the liberal nation state - it's a built-in feature of it.

Seems like a surefire way to get a promotion these days.

They were (allegedly) trying to "balance" public safety and privacy?

Why would they "balance" two things they absolutely DO NOT care about?

Fuck tolerance.

See? It's that easy. No paradoxes required.

It is only a matter of time before pigs or some paramilitary pig-wannabes perpetrate a massacre of protestors in the US.

When (not if) they do, watch out... it will be open-season on anybody that's marginalized or slightly left than Heinrich Himmler.

I sure hope you all are ready for this.

you also have to convince them it’s worth getting shot over.

When they start shooting protestors, the time for protest is over.

Sounds totes like a "classless" system, eh folks?

Yeah the democrats were weak when it comes to Gaza.

The Dems were not "weak" on Gaza - they very strongly supported their favorite little genocidal white supremacist colonialist project.

But, they didn’t say “the west bank is yours for the taking. Go get!”

Nobody "handed" Israel the West Bank - the IDF can concentrate on the West Bank now because they were too entangled by their abysmal failure to beat Hamas in Gaza.

largely peaceful anti-israel protests that were commonplace under the democrats will now get violently shut down by autocratic style policing

Good. The people doing "peaceful" protest needs to learn what "peaceful" protest amounts to one way or the other.

Also trump has an extremely pro Israeli track record

So does the entire US political establishment, including anyone the Dems will allow as a presidential candidate.

The Swiss? Those people known for their (supposed) "neutrality" despite helping the Nazis squirrel away all that stolen wealth?

Say it isn't so!
