  • Yep. Trump was always expected to deescalate. That’s why Biden immediately ramped up on every war front after Harris lost. They had to cram as much planned war in as quickly as they could.

    I have an old college friend who’s a foreign service officer at the state dept. Right after the Harris loss, the state dept cancelled all leave, and called everyone in for this 3 month blitz. Gonna try to get some more info out of my friend, when he’s brought back in February.

    This has been a Democrat crime spree. Wish there was any hope of the incoming admin holding them accountable, but I doubt they want to set a precedent for punishing war crimes before they start on their own.




  • You sure you’re a leftist? I see more leftism allowed to exist on Lemmy than other platforms, but the majority of it certainly leans neoliberal.

    Try criticizing NATO or the Democrats in Lemmy communities. See how fast the powermods and groupthink kick in to put a stop to it.

    But of course the rightwing stuff gets targeted, too. The mods here seem keen to mirror the narrow pro-neoliberal Reddit viewpoint of what is acceptable speech. Anything beyond that will result in a strike against the user or instance.

    ETA: just got banned from another Lemmy.world community for pointing out the original NATO commanders were Nazis. There you have it.
