    Well NATO works both ways, and we’ve seen recently what happens if russia decides to walk into a non-NATO country.

    If russia walks into the USA then NATO (probably renamed to the European Defence something) will be sitting back going “hey, sucks to be you. Shame you’re not in a mutual defence pact or something.”

    I for one would welcome the shuttering of US miltary bases in Europe and around the world. Bring it on.

    Old article, btw. This is from Sept 2024. I get that’s what he promised, and while I think he’s a complete asshat, let’s not discount that he and Trump said and will say anything to appear smart, capable, and as if they have a plan.

    Time will tell if this actually comes to pass, but I’m not actually going to hold my breath for this one.

    This is expected. A hallmark of fascism is state capitalism — a fusion of the corporation and the state — with corporations administered more like org units of the fascist party.

    Many of us have been saying that this is the natural end state of capitalism all along, if it’s allowed to run its course.

      Problem is that it’s hurting the economy, meaning that if your hypothesis is right, capitalism collapses rather quickly if left on it’s on devices.

        Yeah, but you just distract the idiots with “illegal” immigrants, and abortion, and perceived “enemies within”, etc. etc.

        It works every single time.

      Listen, if it were a government website it would be unusual for the vast majority of users and basically impossibly to navigate, so we got that going for us. Looking at you DTS.
