qkkl posted:If the MSM blasted video of starving Yemeni children non-stop then the US public would also be calling for ending US support of the complete blockade of Yemen. I'd like to believe you but, as the past few days have shown, the MSM can show children on US soil being kidnapped and put in cages by Nazis and most of the US public actively supports this.

yeah I eat rear end posted:You put too much faith in people in general. A sizeable portion would just handwave it away as "not our problem" regardless of the coverage. True, the MSM would also have to provide lots of coverage on the amount of money US taxpayers are paying to starve Yemeni children. A foolproof way to get Americans to drop support for something is to to make them feel bad emotionally and financially.

It’s more a good way to build support for yet another $716 billion dollar defense budget than anything.

I know it's fun to poo poo on us because we're down right now, but there are a lot of other people currently following America's foray into insanity. Europe is still selling weapons to Yemenis, the incoming Syrian refugees are fueling the rise of the radical right, and Israel is gunning down protesting Palestinians. Hell, it happened before when Dubya came to power (unless you guys have forgotten Chirac, Sharon, Blair blindly following Dubya, Harper, and that Merkel replaced Schroder). Laugh at us, but learn from us. Else we'll be lolling at you as you join us in hell.

It pays to remember that during the war German families would grass on their neighbours for having (or believing them to have) pro-Jewish attitudes. Also, it's been said that ordinary Germans were aware of Holocaust atrocities. Separating children from parents only feels wrong if you believe that they are humans to begin with. And even if you do accept they are human, you might be conditioned to believe they deserve sub-human treatment because of imagined ills they are visiting upon your nation, and on you. Every immigrant - refugee or otherwise - is very deliberately painted by those with a vested interest to be after your jobs, or your women, etc. It's all part of a sustained dehumanising campaign by the likes of Fox News that sadly many millions of people swallow without any further retrospection. I think people imagine the whole Nazi rise to power and how it corrupted and mobilised many millions of ordinary, previously moderate Germans into participation in or dimissal of abhorrent human rights abuses as some kind of unique event in history, never to be repeated. We're seeing today how it works, and naively think we're too enlightened for it to be the exact same thing.

Speaking of extremely sad and angry. https://twitter.com/reveal/status/1009479961059647488 https://twitter.com/davidgura/status/1009479030696042497 I agree with Jose in principle because this thread has definitely gone off the funny rails with this latest horror show. However it's not really reasonable to expect people not to talk about it and the threads specifically about this topic got gassed because apparently "child concentration camps are bad" is a controversial topic or something.

Chinatown posted:because remember, right before a major financial and economic meltdown, optimism is super low It's getting lost in the horror show of everything else that's going on, but the de-regulation that is happening under this administration is similar to what happened that lead to the 2008 financial crisis. Instead of sub-prime mortgages, this time it's corporate debt. Eventually it will collapse. Edit: you know what, you're right, this poo poo isn't that funny any more

How the gently caress are you all not ripping cops limb from limb in the street? Your government is stealing children. Why are they keeping the kids forever? Fuckibg give them back you ghouls. Deporting them with their families is better than that you cunts. Yes I know this is a loving mcdonald's drive thru.

What're the odds all these "orphaned" children that are supposedly going to be "adopted" are actually just going to be kept in secret camps so rich old white fucks can harvest their organs? I'm guessing this is already happening.
