    “dealing with” consisting of

    Hitler: 6 Million

    Communism: 150 Million

    150/6 = 23

    Communsim = 23 Hitlers

    What we are witnessing is the winding down of the US Empire. Trump is caught between (his supporters) ‘isolationists’ (no more war, multipolar world, good lucrative biz, with the USA still ‘on top’) and agressive war-mongers with varied motives. Both being approaches to maintain some kind of dominance.

    Re. articles at top,

    “US mulls easing Iran sanctions.” Iran was the winner in the 12 day skirmish. The USA needs new ties, links, allies, etc. notably w. Russia in 1st place.

    Along the same lines, “Let Trump save us from war with Iran” as well as “The damage Iran has inflicted on Israel” (Helmer) both contain the idea that Iran gave Israel a strong but calibrated and cautious warning beating — to ‘save’ the vestiges of Israel, have it survive, it must stop agression, back down, etc.

    “Netan. corruption trial should be cancelled” as said by Trump is another move in the same direction, Bibi being ‘pardoned’ might remove his motive for blowing up everything, he could retire to Florida.

    The US warned of the coming attacks on Iran, and Iran warned the US that the US base in Qatar was to be blasted, as stated by Jay in “Is Donald Trump really running the Iran show?”

    “Trump to consider future UKR aid” RT. The article shows that this is maybe, maybe not, shuffling around stuff. My guess is not, the US will do all it can to ignore, cover up, forget, the loss in Ukraine. One difficulty might be the kick-back mechanism (arms gifts / sales on tick afford kick-backs to the US shareholders, etc.)

    Of course all of this leaves Palestinians on the genocide agenda.

    is it reasonable to say “OPERATION WARPSPEED” is capitalism at work?

    if so,

    hitler, 6,000,000

    capitalism 1,000,000,000

    1,000,000,000/6,000,000 = 166.66666667

    so, capitalism = 167 hitlers.

    wowsers!

    Eastern Europe is full of geezers still alive. They dodged the “bullet”?

    Killings in CCCP stopped after the March of 1953 for sure. So it was the psychopath and not the system who did the killings, while it is fair to acknowledge the legitimate shortcomings of the system itself.

    “Understanding” of Soviet System from 100 years ago is a great career asset today in the US, apparently and I am genuinely trying not to be sarcastic.

    Also…. where you were before, when I was “arguing with the two”?

    I do not support socialism, as that is a political ideology that should hav no place in the real world. People who support socialism tend to look to government for solutions and tend to believe that they can take freedom of choice away from others in society and that there should be a uniformity across society; that is not a good thing; in fact, that ruins people and society, so I will never defend socialism ideology.

    I do support societal governance and therefore spending of money on society services, by the local and central government. You can call that the same thing, but it is not, as my support is strictly pragmatic in that government is the best entity to control some things, but its power should not extend beyond those few things.

    Redistribution of wealth should not be a job for government, especially as it works now where government policy shifts money from the poor to the rich, and has done so for decades. Some corporations receive massive support from government – Musk, Thiel, MIC, Blackrock, Vanguard for example – while small businesses cannot compete with them. Enabling monopolies is corruption, if anything the government should be defending its economy against being taken over by corporations that are so powerful that the market no longer works. This used to happen but seems to no longer be in vogue.

    An interesting point that Massie made, in the interview I posted above, was that without lobbyists, members of congress would not fully understand what they are voting for without lobbyists, the lobbyists explain the perspectives of two sides of an argument. His example was what material should be used to cover roads, the bitumen industry lobbyists and concrete lobbyists would provide perspectives from both sides of the argument. In reality, congress should not be making such decisions, the minutae of government spending should not be controlled from the top, that just opens the door to even more corruption and unnecessarily ties the hands of local government.

    One role of central government is to audit all government spending to ensure that tax payer money is not stolen, something that obviously happens on a grand scale in the US government and its leech corporations.

    I do not support socialism,

    Argument earlier today was about “socialism in America”, in which you properly pointed out the fallacy of some
    comments on this site, which happened to be my position too.
    Has nothing to do with support for or against.
    As for myself, I immigrated from the socialist country to the US. Made my life financially comfortable while at the same time discovered the True Nature of my adopted country by peeling the layers of self-imposed deception. The the True Nature we, the folks on this site discuss on daily basis so I do not have to repeat it.

    With Carney’s help, the Globalists have set up Canada to be their proxy to fight Trump.

    Globalists don’t care how much the proxy’s people suffer, in their wars.

    Look at proxy Ukraine, fighting to the last Ukrainian.
    The only thing that is certain, is Ukraine loses.

    Canadians will be used to fight the US Tariff wars.
    It is certain, that ordinary Canadians will lose
