Most of the left, not to mention the right, are falling again for the false narratives, lies and propaganda coming from our government, the Trump regime, and the oligarchy owned and controlled media regarding the supposed ceasefire in Syria, agreements with Russia and Trump's decisions and actions in "fighting terrorism".

No wonder the antiwar movement is almost dead during a period of unprecedented war.

"20 people are newly displaced every minute of the day"

Bernie Sanders, Nina Turner, the Justice Democrats and the People's Summit democratic party cadre, the so called "progressive insurgency" of the democratic party, have made it clear that U.S. imperialism and the accompanying wars, regime changes, country balkanizations, and millions of deaths and brutal evictions are not high on their list of "issues".

I have not disclosed this information before this essay, so this is an exclusive of sorts. I've been secretly conducting a secret experiment, secretly, subjecting myself to often intense and prolonged traumatic situations to test a theory regarding the total elimination of the effects of propaganda.

I am now completely immune to propaganda.

419-1. That was the vote tally in Congress last Thursday to pass the "Korean Interdiction and Modernization of Sanctions Act" on to the Senate, which will no doubt nearly unanimously do the same. The only politician to vote no was a very conservative republican. Gabbard, all the current democratic party idols, voted yay for a clearly illegal and imperialist bill.

Over at the Naked Capitalism blog, they had an interesting discussion based on an entry by Yves Smith, "Why Anti-War Purity Tests Are Not Sound Political Strategy

Many antiwar and anti-imperialism proponents and activists have lamented the state of the sheeple, the acquiescent Americans, the complicit comrades of copious crimes against humanity.

Take it easy, man. Relax. Take it all in. Breath deep the gathering doom.

I find this interesting. Ann Coulter, the high priestess of conservatism and bigotry, is "tired of war". It's interesting because it tells us something about what's happening in this country.

I need to be talked down. Donald Trump, the President of this country and the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces and intelligence services, has unilaterally attacked Syria with missiles aimed at government and military resources, based on the lie that the Assad government was behind the recent alleged chemical weapons incident in Syria. There is no doubt the alleged chemical weapon incident was a false flag taken to justify this very action. Anyone who doubts that, prove me wrong.
