    I oppose war in Iran because was is detestable.

    You oppose war in Iran because you want troops in California instead.

    We are not the same.

    This is not a time to get hung up about identity politics, who’s red, who’s blue. Everyone should scream at the Trump regime that war with Iran is unacceptable and to never bring it up again.

    There will be time for bickering afterwards about details, but right now, everyone against this war should circle the wagons.

    And everyone not against this war needs to first say no to that war, second pick up an history book about Iraq and Afghanistan.

    When a right winger tells the truth, it’s because they’re lying twice. Or in this case, more like 4, possibly 6 times.

    When I hear someone like MTG say something like this my first thought isn’t “Oh, she’s finally figuring it out!” No. It’s “What fucked up way does she think people need to be brainwashed to align more with her brand of shittiness?”

    I have no idea if she’s just that stupid and only sees one move in front of her, or if she always knew but it’s only now suitable for her to say the truth. (It’s also possible it’s both with these people.)

    I don’t even know her motivation. She could just keep quiet and not shoot herself in the foot.

    There’s a youtuber I like that uses the term “weaponized autism” but this is more of a “ballistic brain damage” scenario.

    Saw polling where even Trump voters only have 25% support for attack on Iran, and majority of all demographics oppose by over 50%. There is a huge disconnect between zionist supremacist media and politicians, and American people. Not just war, but marjority of Amercians have unfavourable view of Israel despite absolute political/media dominance to “educate them”.

      Polls also show overwhelming support for social security and taxing the rich, the GOP don’t give af and the R voters won’t change how they vote over this.
