While global stocks have largely sustained the relief rally that followed Monday’s wild swings, fear is again resurfacing as Iran vowed to step up its missile strikes.
President Donald Trump’s assurance that the war with Iran was “very complete” and could be “over soon” initially injected optimism into markets, even as Iranian hardliners rallied behind new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei and said their blockade of oil would continue.
Within hours of Trump’s statements, Iran’s military dashed markets’ hopes. “We are the ones who will determine the end of the war,” Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said.
Such comments brought the exchange back to a familiar tempo with Trump then threatening to hit Iran “TWENTY TIMES HARDER than they have been hit thus far.”
America needs to get fucked and I hope this Trump administration breaks it apart. What a pathetic excuse for leadership, pro billionaire, protecting rapists, what the hell kind of timeline is this. No sympathies for any ill that happens internally to murica. And this excuse of not voting Trump doesn’t hold, he speaks for all America like it or not, he is the face of what American politics allow and how easy it is to rig.
Hey thanks for being pissy, how about some help?
There are many of us who feel like you do, and we’re stuck here. Then you come in and shout “fuck you” in my face because… …I hate it too? Cool, great work - did you make yourself feel better at least?
Yeah, I will shout fuck you to your face, where’s your second amendment militias in the face of this governance, where are you crippling the country to rid yourselves of this evil. Not even a general strike. No, you collectively made your beds and now you lie in them. I know all your excuses, people are living paycheck to paycheck and can’t afford to strike, that’s a you problem, you, again, voted to give corporations the power to fuck your workers, you call Bernie Sanders a socialist while he was probably the only politician in the past few decades who actually gave a shit about the average American. You deserve what you’re getting, Sincerely, Someone who’s lived through American bombs.
So you didn’t even make yourself feel better.
You want to know where my personal second amendment militias are? What does that even mean, you’re not talking to the news I’m a real fucking person you weirdo. Don’t you fucking think we wish we could fix it?
Happy to hear suggestions - but of course you have nothing to offer but anger. You want to push us into violence, because it’s all you know.
I feel sorry for you, at least we still have hope.
edit: You are absolutely no fan of Sir Pratchett, as he would spit in your face for claiming to love his works while actively hating others the way you do. Shame on you
Yeah, they’re just a prick who can’t understand that people are trapped here. They cannot understand that the billionaire class intentionally trapped the lower (and much of the middle) class, and think that everyone here is perfectly content with what’s happening. So much for class solidarity, funny that they call themselves a leftist.
They’d rather see the lower class either get murdered one by one in the streets (because unless there’s millions of us at once, that’s what will happen). They haven’t thought very far ahead, and for some reason they think that if the government cracks down on us that it’ll cause the collapse of the US. I don’t think that’s true, and in fact, I think it would only give the feds a tighter grip and allow them to fight additional illegal wars.
It’s interesting to see them be happy that their supposed fellow leftists are losing their right to vote. Not just happy, in fact… they want left leaning voters to fear voting. Just like Trump and the GOP. Funny how that works.
Having to say, “I didn’t vote for this” isn’t much different than “I was just taking orders”. Obviously the extent of the damage being inflicted matters here, but at this point I would suggest you be “All in”!
except for the fact that it’s in no way even remotely slightly even a little bit related to the same thing in any way what so fuckin ever. Other than that, those things are identical.
Wow isn’t that the dumbest comment I’ve read today. Great work
Not stupid, just my own belief. Without someone taking responsibility, where do we end up?
Sorry you’re confused
I appreciate why you don’t agree with my philosophy, I too struggled to come to terms with blaming people who are only dragged along for the ride. In many cases it doesn’t really hold true as it comes off as “blame the victim”, which is not my intent. Ultimately it could lead to a fight where I hope you all have the courage to pick a side rather than flee or hide.
It’s all I know because that’s what America has shown me. I’m not angry, I’m glad you’re tasting the shit, your rights are being impeded (much like the rights of all those people who’s lives are shot because you prop up dictators for your security). If you think you have hope, the billionaire class will soon teach you there is none. As for violence, you’ve exported so much of it for so long all over the world it’s about time you understood that while you may be far away from the shit you cause, it will eventually get to you. And no need to feel sorry for me, I’ve been a diaspora my whole life because of you and your Israeli puppet masters it’s actually given me a brilliant understanding of several cultures you’ll likely never experience. No, America’s days of pretend democracy are over and you’re finally seeing the face we’ve always know.
Wow. What a weirdo. Have the day you deserve.
lol
Have the coming few years that you deserve too. Good luck trying to vote in the midterms.
What an absolutely shitty way to be
Call it shitty, call it whatever you want, but my sentiment is echoed in a lot of areas in the world America has fucked over time and again. I used to differentiate between Trumps Maga Evangelicals and the rest of you, but Trump twice is you guys just fucking around. There is very little sympathy for you internationally.
Bigotry is pretty popular, I’m aware. Great job running with that torch. It is extremely shitty.
The state of mind of a bigot; obstinate and unreasoning attachment of one’s own belief and opinions, with narrow-minded intolerance of beliefs opposed to them. I’m a leftist believe it or not, I care about people, I believe in equality, all those lovely words you lot use when forcing “democracy” on other countries. But the actions of your government has put my family in direct danger, again, so what I’m portraying isn’t bigotry, it’s I’ve had enough of your shit and I hope you get a taste of your own medicine. Countless republican wars waged on the middle east all based on lies and resources that have killed hundred of thousands, directly and indirectly. Welcome to the real world, where people eventually resent you, much like an abusive toxic relationship.
Then you clearly haven’t read the books if you’re still wondering. Stay ignorant
Stopped reading due to piece of shit
