      I’m sorry are you under the impression Trump is magically different to previous US presidents?

      One dropped 2 nuclear bombs. Another invaded Cuba. Another genocided 1 fifth of the population of Korea. Another killed 2 million Iraqis and thousands of Afghanis. Another bombed Yugoslavia. Of the 248 conflicts that occurred between 1945 and 2010, 201 of them were instigated by the United States.

      You people are beyond cartoons. You act like Trump is a diversion from the norm while ignoring the entire history of US presidencies. Mass murder and genocide is the United State’s historical legacy. The only president that wasn’t a mass murdering psychopath was the one that died immediately after being sworn in and that’s solely because he didn’t get a chance to do what is expected of him by the bourgeoisie.

      The current guy that you are advocating for is committing a genocide RIGHT NOW and you’re still advocating for him. You have become genocide supporters yourselves because you can’t imagine doing anything else other than supporting D.

        Unless you are North Korean, or living in a hut in Africa and tomorrow you will spend your day toiling in the sun to build a school, or are sending every additional funding you earn to feed hungry Cubans, you’re just a tool too, my friend. Since you have internet access and have the time to get up on your moral soap box and respond to some stranger on the internet you know nothing about and call them cartoons, clearly you could be doing something productive and useful to the needy of the world. Are you sleeping in a comfortable bed with a roof over your head and with a full belly? Yes? Then you are the man too.

        Being too distant geographically from the people doing it to do anything and feeling angry and totally powerless? Yeah, chances are that’d be the case

      From MLK:

      "First, I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action;” who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a “more convenient season.”
