do you believe in the writings of marx, author of capital and the communist manifesto? do you believe in lenin, who was betrayed by trotsky and now sleeps in the red square? do you believe in vanguard parties, the contradictions of capitalism, the inevitability of revolution, socialism is one country, and full communism?ya

Hours before the scheduled third and final debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in Las Vegas, The New York Times published an article in which it argued that the Republican presidential nominee in effect has no foreign policy beyond using and abusing global issues to elicit gut fears and hostile fantasies of his domestic followers, that foreign policy has in effect become a matter of domestic fear-mongering.
The piece could not have been more timely and poignant - but not in the sense that The New York Times intended it further to discredit the liberal bete noire of this election. In a sense far more serious and accurate.
For the World at large, Trump is America and America is Trump. What has now become domestic politics to the US has been its foreign policy for a much longer history.
There are decent Americans who insist Trump is "the worst of America".
But for the world at large and at the receiving end of American military might, Trump is the very quintessence of America because Trump is what America does to the world, and now it has come dangerously close to do unto itself what it has habitually done unto others.
Liberal America is now scared that Trump will do to America what America has done to the world. It was just "foreign policy" when America set up lunatic puppet dictators just like Trump to torture, maim, and murder their own people around the globe to protect its "national security interest".
It was just something "Daddy" did at work. When he came home he was all good, kind, and cuddly - just like Obama. Now the Daddy is about to become a nasty, vicious, domestic abuser - like Trump.
Trump is the poetic justice of the world. So long as America was only doing to the world at large what America now fears Trump may do to America, there was no outcry. There was consensus. The world deserved what America did to the world.
Now liberal America is up in arms to disown, to exorcise, to dispel this demonic spirit from itself and put it back in a bottle and hand it over to Hillary Clinton so she can continue the habitual exercise of doing it to the world and be a nice. lovely-looking grandma at home, as Ronald Reagan was its grandpa before her.
Major story that the Dems are making up phony polls in order to suppress the the Trump . We are going to WIN!

For me this is not a “lesser of two evils” election — it’s the best conceivable candidate versus the worst conceivable candidate.

this is more insane than goatsteins article
"On November 8th, the dispossessed will pull the lever for the man who has promised to upend the system that has ruined them"
"The enemy of my enemy is who I am voting for on November 8th"
3. She is extraordinarily — inhumanly? — pragmatic.
for power, she has discarded the last vestiges of her humanity. her thoughts are not our thoughts; her ways, alien. vote for the lizardperson, the cold rampant AI. elect the blood goddess, ineffable and terrible, and the world will know her profane ecstasy
Hillary Clinton is highly unnatural. She has an uncanny ability to comport herself in exactly the way she believes will best achieve her ends, to play her cards at exactly the right time, to recognize the second- and third-order consequences of her every move, to accrue and spend political capital with mechanical precision.
eyes like the surface of a subterranean lake, stagnant and ichorous
heartbeat, the infrasonic pulse of a coal seam fire
"highly unnatural"
But even to allies, this can be extremely unsettling. It can feel like she doesn’t care about you, and like she’ll say or do whatever she needs to in order to get your vote.
And thank god for that!
it almost feels like there's something coded here
seriously, author-person, blink twice if you are in danger

If only his speech ended there. It doesn't. He goes on a tirade after that and virtue signals over and over followed by anti white propaganda. Listen being anti white is not anti racism. It's just anti white which is itself racism.
And when it really comes down to it, I feel woefully unqualified to make these kinds of judgments. I always have to remind myself: Clinton is smarter than me, more knowledgeable and more experienced than me.

Totally disinterestededly, rationaly, logically #WithHer:
Milo's thirst for knowledge extends across many academic fields. He took a strong interest in math at a young age, taking classes at Stuyvesant High School when he was 8 years old and graduate classes at the NYU Courant Institute during his high school years. However, at Harvard, he branched out, switching his major from economics to applied math with computer science, and then again to government — but he wishes he didn’t have to choose! He writes about science, statistics, politics, and history, and tries to read about pretty much everything else. He has worked as Wealth Management Intern at Morgan Stanley, Constituent Liaison at the Office of Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Crossword Constructor at the New York Times, Trading Intern at Jane Street Capital, and Freelance Writer at FiveThirtyEight, among others.
Which is why it drives me crazy when some guy at a party tells me (and yes, it always seems to be a guy) exactly what she did wrong in X country and what she clearly should’ve done. Well, gosh, if only you’d been Secretary of State instead! If only she’d heard your three-sentence criticism, she might have recognized her folly!
Ugh! so tired of these dudebros mansplaining @ me about mass murder being bad.
