lol!

And of course there's no chance that the US power structure would be involved if the US had a systemic break down.

Blackwater/Academi and the CIA probably already have detailed plans in place. They'll do what ex-KGB agent Putin did in Russia; let the people throw out the old leadership, then swoop in and buy up the resources for pennies on the dollar.

Thanks for helping me prove my point.

First off, I voted for Harris,

Maybe lead with that next time?

So we agree. The revolution didn't actually improve things for most people.

How is it 'beside the point' when it's exactly my point?

More voters should have listened to Bernie.

He told people what to do.

So, you're saying that because the Shah was terrible in 1979 it's okay for the current people to be terrible now?

Right now Vietnam is a very popular tourist destination for Americans. I know people who have been there several times and want to go back.

I just hope that Joe Biden sends Ukraine every gun in the arsenal.

Putin doesn't even have to ask him.

The most insane thing about Trump is how much of a weakling he is. All he had to do was demand $50 billion from the Saudis on Inauguration Day 2016 and he could have sailed along without a care. Instead he decided the smart thing to do was chisel his supporters for nickels and dimes.

I can only hope that Biden opens the flood gates and sends as much as possible as quickly as possible.

We were in a class talking about X-rays. One young woman kept insisting that 'opaque' was a color. We finally figured out that she had seen opaque pantyhose and been confused.

Anyone who didn't vote for Harris is just as guilty.
