China will be emboldened to attack Taiwan. And Don’t get me started on Iran

We should also stand with (real) democratic countries fighting for their sovereignty. They have a right to join us and our NATO Allie’s if they want to. I also personally do not want Ukraine to go the way of Belarus and Lukashenko.

I do not support war. That’s ridiculous. But I understand the global hegemony and the stakes at play here.

To the TYT Intercept crowd, America will always be in the wrong I guess.

Jacobin is a fucking joke to serious politicos.
