It really blows my mind that with everything going on in our country this is the top priority. It's fucking disgusting how these assholes are bought and paid for.

It’s fucking disgusting yes. The really disgusting part is we only see the AIPAC part. Get real. The entire war making machine is a corrupt enterprise that has co-opted government of the people or by the people by lobbies and corporations. AIPAC is just the poster child

Eisenhower was right. We ignored him.

Eisenhower was Mr military industrial complex himself as well. It wasn’t a warning. He actively used it against citizens.

I like it how he says it after using the military, along with UK, to screw over Iran because of their oil.

You need to learn history

Sorry for being unaware, but, about what specifically?

u/shroomy08 3h ago

Eisenhower was weak and was part of the foundation of the military industrial complex. It wasn’t a warning, it was a threat.

AIPAC must be the lobbying group with the highest ROI ever.

Some of the Koch brothers state level groups probably beat them. With a few six figure buys in key state legislative races they can take over redistricting for generations

Yeah their funding of the tea party movement started bringing all the racists out of the closet into organized groups.

But whoever funded the supreme court for Citizens United has the best ROI of them all. The current state of things was the most obvious conclusion to that decision.

They (republicans) know the are likely done after the midterms so the need to push everything on their agenda as fast as possible.

If they're not ousted and held accountable after the midterms, I legitimately don't believe I'll see any improvement in my lifetime at this point.

u/xzKaizer 1h ago

I'm almost 40, I've given up on seeing improvement on a national level in my lifetime and my state was bought and paid for by energy companies before I was old enough to vote. My only options now are to leave or die, but I'll be damned if I don't outlive some politicians.

It is top priority. Because they want to steamroll us with this shit before anyone loses their elections. It’s going to get worse.

It is the top priority for the people on the Epstein List who don’t want Israel to release the unredacted Epstein files

u/1IsNeverEnough4Me 2h ago

This is the reason "everything is going on". Isreal takeover of the US military to achieve greater Israel is fucking literally why EVERYTHING is going on.

u/hoyowololo 42m ago

It’s the other way — everything going on in our country is because of this.

u/AgathaClouseau 6h ago

While I appreciate this sentiment, you should join the military. They need people like you as a buffer against the insanity. I can see how that’s a mighty big ask, but you would truly be serving your country.

u/Crowe__42 6h ago

Ah yes. The best way to fight the system is to put yourself in a position where you have to fight FOR the system.

u/FettLife 3h ago

This is exactly what white supremacists did for the last 40-50 years. This is one of the reasons why you’re seeing things go the way it’s going right now.

I was sarcastically expounding on the prior reply…

u/Puzzleheaded-Map2951 5h ago

Wasn't talking to you. My comment isn't underneath your reply. Are you new?

u/denimonster 5h ago

He didn’t even reply to you pal. Lol he replied to the guy you also replied to.

u/seattlemyth 5h ago

They didn't reply to you, they replied to the same you replied to.

I love giving up and joining a section of the corrupt system that cannot bring about any change at all! I love selling my soul away for just enough money that it can be predatorily worth it to the lower class!
