Things are in terrible state in the world.

Gaza exposed it even more:

* No one accepts high western "morality" anymore

* Most US politicians are blackmailed via Epstein who worked for Israel, with high probability, including Trump

* ICE is just the beginning, they're trained by IDF, send more people and 1940 is not too far away from us

>Most US politicians are blackmailed via Epstein

??? Most? His network was certainly extensive but "most politicians" seems like a significantly overextended extrapolation.

  • I wouldn’t point to Epstein, but there is a very powerful lobby that will protect the image of any Israeli government. A lot of Evangelicals also consider Israel important in bringing about the apocalypse, without which they can’t access eternal life. I wish I was kidding on that last one, but there are people actively trying to bring down civilisation so they can go to heaven.

> * No one accepts high western "morality" anymore

Is that an accurate trend on an individual basis?

  • I think when people say "West", they automatically think US and UK - and given their war crimes in recent history, you do get this sentiment, yes. I suspect, however, that this view has exacerbated and now includes other "western" countries that are silent/complicit in current horrific war crimes.
