Life in the Empire

(how is this for a new thread?)

It is not the freshest news. But it is still breaking, people are still absorbing it ,and it all till needs context.

The filthy greedheads and the doomed can't have exclusive rights to this news territory. The insane and the loyal opposition must have their say as well.

My take - the Russian armada is going to bomb the living fuck out of Aleppo.  Not so much to help Assad as to show they can still break shit, and still matter in one of their few areas of influence outside of Russia. 

Sebostabol/Crimea alreadytaken and those pieces are swatted off the chess board.
Then they will pass through the Suez canal to a favorite area of contemporary interest - the south china sea, to dock at the "chinese" island. 
They will refit at Vizag (a top indian navy base), go hover around the "chinese" island in the spratleys, maybe some commando/fast boat/SEAL type training with the chinese there. then they go right by the senkaku islands on the way to vladivostick for winter.
just to show the world the BRICS aint nobody to fuck with. 
Turkish PM Erdogan just "cleaned house," by firing about 40,000 people in government and shooting a
few hundred security, military and intelligence staff accused of being Gulen supporters.  some probably were, some probably were not, and Gulen's infleunce is not as profound as the govt makes it out to be. but he just bought himself 5 more years of unchallengable rule. and the ability to flip turkey out of NATO into the BRICS. I think it is very possible and could happen suddenly if it does.
Then much of eastern europe NATO (esp former ussr/Warsaw Pact) all quit too - because it is a stupid antiquated instiution that has not had a rational strategic reason of existence since the fall of the Berlin wall.  nato is not world's army the blue hats in the UN are.
Timing - Putin put them at sea when he knew he would have a four month window of no real response from usa because of the  elections.
They will have proved they are back as a true blue sea navy, anf kicked some ass, and shored up crucial geostrategic along the way.
I feel no portence of WWIII but instead feel this is a macho country saying "we be back motherfucka!"
and the advanced cyber and ground/space/ship-to-shore warfare eqpt of china, russia (less so india) is getting really good, and hits all the achilles heels of nato/USSA, efficiently, cheaply, and on the button.

Hey thanks for the link. Been watching Dr. John's updates daily. 

So: the "election" will be (fake family values) vs. (fake social justice warriors). Nice. If it were Trump/ Pence vs. Sanders/ Gabbard... it might be interesting. Instead- we get the Punch and Judy Show... with the highly visible Puppeteer(s) wearing a different colored sock on each hand. No plot. Same script.
How about a real plot: real families. Real values. Real justice. Because the the planet is still cooking... oceans dying... and there's still bad water in Flint. Instead we get... The Flintstones.

I'm hoping Tulsi shows up to the Dem convention with her army and arrests all the DNC charlatans like Cromwell. And Tom Perez is given the same sentence as Charles I. 

That's how it changes. Not by participating in these BS elections. 

And yeah, I know it will never happen. But I have a dream...

Joe Biden now Joe Shit, the Rag Man.  Everybody vote JSRM and everything will be ok.  

"I want to thank Bernie Sanders and his supporters for their tireless energy and their passion," he said at a conference. "We'll bring this nation together."   Wow,  It's Chicago 1968 all over again. We'll gather in the streets and shout Dump the Hump.  Whole world's watching.  The Clowno the Fuckhead show.  And then we'll get our heads cracked.  And they'll shoot some scary brown illegals.  JSRM will keep US Occupied until November.  We're already sleeping in tents and vans.  And instead of a General Strike, we'll have the Great Cornholio.  JSRM will help identify CV19 high-risks (HRs) for Quarantine Centers run by ICE.  (real ice is melting)   

Welcome back to the Reality Based Community.   

 

Looks like Tulsi isn't the resistance fighter we imagined....

Oh well. At least she got her message out for a short while. Now, six months of dem trolls telling us how Biden is somehow better than Trump before Trump is re-elected. 'Til then, we try to survive a plague. And my odds of doing that don't seem so good. Good luck all.

how they turned their steps, and their wheels, their faces to the holy mountains, and went there in great numbers. To the holy mountains of the West, where Arthur withstood the Saxon onslaught, and the holy mountains of the North.  So many people walking the high paths that they were crowded, bethronged with seekers of solitude.

No-one thereabouts has ever seen the like.  That was Saturday .

How about some honest platitudes?  Mayor Pete (the spook) wins the bullshit prize- for action honesty listening and deep deep change.
