We shouldn't be in Syria in the first place. However, now we have a situation like Iraq. After helping create instability, we have terrorists and extremist in the fold and a bunch of hands from various countries trying to claim a win.

Another failure of interfering with other people's shyt to add to the long list of the US fukking up other countries. I don't care how bad Assad is, we have many examples of the US trying to overthrow leaders only for something worse to fill its spot. In fact, I can't really think of any successes since WW2 with Japan.
If you care about trumps trade war then you have to care about the oil geopolitics

Can you imagine John Kerry and Susan Rice being fired within the same month?

Sorry, Don't support it. I'm assuming you're referencing the oil pipeline deal with the Saudis.

You want to fight terrorism and claim its an a major issue. Well maybe stop fukking up other countries in order to get cheaper oil. You can't have both.

Secondly, this idea that some geopolitical dominance needs to be asserted is usually in the interest of a few corporation than in the average person's interest. The UK seems to have survived having its empire deconstructed. Are they as geopolitically important or as wealthy? No. But the average citizen isn't destitute either and its still a first world country.

While your government is pouring billions, if not trillions, into these games, your domestic life gets progressively worse. Your wages don't rise, your schools get worse, your healthcare gets worse, your infrastructure gets worse. Stuff most people actually care about more on a day to day basis. Maybe if you weren't pouring trillions of dollars into these games, you can pour it into those things instead. Funny enough, these are things the UK instead of maintaining a world wide empire spends money on instead.

But folks keep falling for getting fukked over in the interest of the few because it tickles their homelandesque geopolitical chess fetish.

The world doesn’t stop spinning when you think your morality paralyzes you.

No, you're worst than not being a pacificist. If you were just someone who believed in military defense in response to a legit threat we would be on the same page.

You're an imperialist. To make things worse, I assume you're also against white supremacy but these actions are fueled by white supremacy which leads to the paternalistic attitude western nations take towards third world and non-white countries and disregarding their humanity and autonomy. This is also used to either convince the population that the violence is just or to disregard it as being of consequence by dehumanizing usually nonwhite populations. It also usually increases hostility back home against the population that resembles the ones we are bombing.

Given your logic and thinking, if the US was a major colonial power during the scramble for Africa, you'd support it out of some misguided belief that just by being American you will indirectly benefit.

Grassley Knocks Trump For Prompting Chinese Tariffs On US Agriculture

oh no Mr Grassley.
those farmers are gonna have to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
they voted for Cheeto to MAGA.
if that means farmers have to suffer they should just put on their red hats
and suffer silently like the patriots they are.
yeah these farmers (and everyone outside of the steel industry) are selfish as shyt. why can't they make sacrifices so that steel workers can eat a little bit.
