  • Completely eyeballed it but I included every Western imperialist project that was done with Bible in hand and chanting variations of “Deus Vult”, so that’s large chunks of Asia, most of Africa, all of Latin America, and every Western incursion on West Asia from the Crusades to Iran today. And let’s not forget the pagan persecution in the West itself by the Romans. That’s a shit ton of people through the ages, right?

    Jesus, by far. The people who have been murdered in his name is probably close to or over a good billion, right?

    He’s not really a “foundational figure of Christianity” though, his image was just co-opted by the Roman empire which then created the religion also co-opting the actual “Jewish revival” Jesus was at the core of (bringing the fundamentals of monotheism back into mind and expanding the teachings to everyone, not just a small select community).

    Having a Western-aligned (America and vassal states) leader in close proximity to a nation who has not submitted yet is certainly part of the plan, always, but could the admin truly be incompetent enough to fuck it up for themselves? Or is Orban just being replaced by a different puppet and we’re spectating the theatrics of democracy, no more, no less? I think seeing things as “removing Orban is good for Europe” (and whatever other alternative is “bad for Europe”) is a bit oversimplified.








  • I won’t, it’s a waste of both of our times and I’m not that much of a maniac, lol. But we hardly live in Hell (unless you’re in Gaza or Lebanon, idk, in that case I understand your perception of things). Again, I have defined liberal very narrowly: Western imperialists who deny it (to themselves and others), and with better PR and “softer approaches” that aren’t as obviously morally disgusting. It’s not just a catch-all term for everyone who’s a danger to the global community.

    But assuming I’m wrong, could you provide me with at least two examples of self-proclaimed “liberals” who are representative of the ideology today and tell me which things they did that you approve of and did not support the status quo of Western global oppression ?



  • That’s not true, you can fit many labels which I disagree with ideologically and morally (so, yeah, “bad”), not just “liberal”. You could be/call yourself a “Zionist” or otherwise “Western imperialist”, or just imperialistic, or you could be a “nationalist”, a “Christian right-winger”, or a Republican/Democrat, or even a “realpolitik pragmatist”.

    And out of curiosity, do you believe in Hell or is that just an expression? Liberals are known to stand for nothing, so it would shock me if you did.
