d&d goons petitioned in QCS to keep LF closed as they were banning and probating criticism of the obama invasion of libya

the thing is, these people don't understand that peace is not just a selfless moral position, but one of self-interest too, because those who choose the side of the violent aggressor will inevitably be consumed by someone who out-violences them. or, maybe, they do have this understanding, just, they have it in the brief moments between when they hear harsh noises outside their state department compound in bengazi and the moment they die in a fire

the way d&d's run is an op. there were two mods who were intel community folks, and i'm guessing those aren't the only spooks there have ever been in there (and also that at least some other mods or admins knew about there being spooks), since i doubt two of the mod positions would just happen to be spooks by coincidence

of course they'd want to shut down anything that talks about how it's bad to kill thousands in regime change

Moderating a web forum is the only way that low level state department flunkies or intelligence goons can feel like their "expertise" has any value because they can lord it over people. That's a big improvement over getting yelled at for loving up your report copy, or having the elite operators laugh at you when you log into goonswarm chat.

The Ecuadorean people have a right to be pissed. They elected Correa's left-wing successor over their Guaido only for this phony "Lenin" to pivot immediately to the IMF and sell the entire country out. A historically massive betrayal

Let's recap all the very normal things that have been happening in Ecuador:

- Attempted coup in 2010 against the soc. dem. president
- Bogus corruption charges against the soc. dem. president
- Election of pro-US, pro-IMF candidate
- Readmission of US military personnel to Ecuador
- Immediate IMF loans
- Immediate IMF austerity measures

I'm missing a few things, but this shows really the full spectrum of Western fuckery in Latin America.

Ecuador also used to be high on the list for countries with bad "press freedom" because Correa was hostile to private media. Never hear about that anymore. Weird, huh?
