Thanks to Pamela Karlan for so aptly capturing Democratic elites' delusional, Reaganite, jingoistic Cold Warrior mindset in your claim that we need to arm Ukraine "so they fight the Russians there and we don't have to fight them here" & we remain "that shining city on the hill." pic.twitter.com/C78aNThnUk

blackagendareport | Self-styled liberals believe they are a better class of people than
Trump, but are bigger supporters of unjust wars than the so-called
“deplorables.”
“Liberals eagerly wait for a war they can believe in.”
The trauma of Donald Trump’s presidency has created continued
insanity for American liberals. They were never very trustworthy, due to
their abiding belief in United States exceptionalism and an imagined
right for it to intervene in the rest of the world as it pleased.
Liberals could be counted on to protest wars which killed Americans in
Vietnam or in Iraq. But by and large they trust in imperialist dictates
if someone they like is in charge and who doesn’t allow too many of
their countrymen to get hurt.
Hence their dilemma with Donald Trump. Trump is their anti-Christ, a
bad mannered, proudly stupid, racist who expresses the id of the great
unwashed deplorable white masses. There are many reasons to oppose him
but liberals generally attack from the right. The same people who
remember that the surveillance state lied about the WMD threat from Iraq
now parrot every word from the same people if they are anti-Trump.
Their earlier opposition to war propaganda was more a result of their
anti-Bush, anti-Republican stance than anything else. They didn’t really
oppose U.S. interventions or stand up for peace. Instead they eagerly
wait for a war they can believe in if the rationale is to their liking.
“Liberals trust in imperialist dictates.”
