It looks like things are resolving and returning me to a more calm existence.
Phew!
The MIC wanted to botch the Afghan withdrawal
Submitted by gjohnsit on Mon, 08/23/2021 - 3:32pmI really hate Biden, so it puts me in a very uncomfortable position to have to defend him. Yet there are people that I hate even more than Biden, and they are the Military-Industrial-Complex. It's those warmongers that are creating a false anti-Biden narrative about the withdrawal from Afghanistan that both conservatives and liberals are falling for.
Allow me to list the reasons:

Probably the most important thing the Biden Administration is doing

Essentially if the media hates something then it's probably good, and visa versa.

brought to you by the Delta variant
Just get vaccinated...that's been the message for months. But now the vaccinated are getting COVID thanks to the Delta variant. So are preventative measures encouraged? Hell no, there's no profit in them...TPTB want us to get another ($30) jab. (And notice the $3 non profit Oxford AZ jab still hasn't been approved?) It is another ride on the misinformation merry-go-round, and more people will die and suffer long term effects. We are expendable.
