at least G.W. kept his sights aimed on countries that no one gave a fuk about instead of constantly upping the ante for WW3 and aggressively infringing on the economic territory of foreign powers... just somethign to think about.

The pivot towards Asia is some shit that will go down in history. So yeah, encircling an entire continent with military bases is some horrible shit that nobody cares about. He's probably responsible for the greatest escalation of military tension since WW2 . . .

US Politician
by Rewi Alley

Words so fine
face so benign

who would have thought
he could be bought

power loving
profit grubbing

he fools them once
he fools them thrice

untrue at heart
sycophant

stench of decay
around him today

history has an outsize garbage can
suitable for just this kind of man.

as an excuse to send guns and money to for instance the MPLA bringing the unstoppable imperial juggernaut of...um...Portugal to its knees, anti-imperialist policy was p cool but it MAY not have been as much trouble as it was worth. just saiyin. nelson mandela was a red as a baboon's ass and look what happened when he got in.

the lesson here is that it's not only possible, but essential to coordinate the activities of your org with a powerful nation-state motivated primarily by realpolitik

Yes. He has not only continued Bush era programs, but he has used his liberal clout to push them even further. Obama is the ultimate personification of the modern Neoliberal and is a terrible president.
