Jerky (nomen est omen): You embody and symbolise the dilapidated American microcosm that is The New RI, just as Trump embodies and symbolises America itself. As above, so below. Well done.
Slad, * mentalgongfu, of course I have a point. Surely I made it crystal-clear already? If Obama was Dorian Gray, then Trump is the portrait of his soul, come to life. The Donald is what Capitalism really looks like. That bloated, that clownish, that rotten, that depraved. It's not pretty, but at least it's the truth.*
Presumably you didn't read or even glance at the Parenti paper I linked you to, where that point is made in detail and at length. Do you not have time? It's up to you, of course, and we all have our priorities. But really, and without malice, what good do you think you are doing, to yourself or to RI or to America, when you obsessively gather all this (what to call it?) stuff from the MSM and post it to RI, unfiltered? Day after day, month after month, millions and millions and millions of words, in five, ten, twenty threads, nearly all of it just clickbait and eyeball-fodder churned out on a daily basis by salaried corporate hacks with an axe to grind? It's your Attention they're after, and by god they're getting it.
* Compare the Jerusalem-embassy decision. Again, not pretty (to say the very least); but at least the mask is finally off. To hell, literally, with honest brokers like Obama and every other telegenic imperialist liar who preceded him in that sacred office -- and all the others who will no doubt succeed Trump. (Unlike Cheney and Kissinger, he is presumably not literally immortal.)
ON EDIT: Apologies, I thought I was addressing Slad. Corrected on edit.
