Democratic lawmaker slams Stephen Miller's diatribe on US imperialism in Venezuela and Greenland. Miller claims US will secure resources unapologetically. Sanders calls out administration's priorities.
How has most of America not heard about this virulent pus bag? He’s on the news constantly, foaming at the mouth, shouting shit that would have gotten him dragged to the gallows by an angry mob any time before 1920 (and even then only because he absolutely would have funded the Pinkertons).
the majority of america is either so disillusioned with the system or so inherently selfish that they simply don’t care at all unless something “political” directly effects them
I don’t agree with calling people “selfish” in this sense.
Imagine that you have ZERO connection to anyone other than your blood relatives in any material way. If you were literally dying on the street, anyone who wasn’t a direct blood relative would literally step over you while you were dying. Everyone who isn’t your literal best friend or your mom is rude or apathetic towards you.
In this circumstance, what material motivation do you have to show solidarity to anyone other than yourself and your first degree blood relatives? Please don’t give me an emotional argument, I want a material one. “It’s the right thing” or “because humanity” or “because Heaven” isn’t going to cut it here.
