Comments: Yes, Like you, I'm very grateful for what this country has done for me. Not in my dreams I would have the lifestyle in my own homeland that I do here. You're right about the Al Gore and the W being 25 years old but what about the rest? electoral vote, gerrymandering, MIC, and the big money has been going on for ever. I do admire your passion and the incredible amount of insight that you discuss here and I learn from. I'm a news junkie myself and follow all the downs and ups. I have not missed a single presidential debate since Carter vs Reagan. I watch them as a source of entertainment because I know for a fact these people are only talking heads. The shit show doesn't get me excited. Democracy does not determine the outcome. But the same democracy allows me to speak my mind without bc consequences. That's what I like about the American democracy.
Comments: Saeed, To know more about Neocons, watch this Ron Howard movie (Vice) about Cheney and the events of bush era. Shahin watched the trailer 😀
Comments: KAmkAr. Very good question. Well, first and foremost the reason is mainly for the country I love, and the country which I am so thankful and grateful for. But the specific answer. This new era is 25 years old. The answer is that for the first time someone outside of the establishment is coming in to clean up the house. If the alternatives were someone other than him, like Christie, Romney, Jebb Bush, Lindsey Graham, Mitch McConnell, McCain (alive), and..... then sure you are 100% correct. It would not have mattered. The only difference between this asshole and all the other heavyweight alternatives is that he is not one of them. He is not from the establishment.
Comments: Farzad with all the fraud you talked about 2000 and knowing that you're politically very well informed, I wonder what makes you get excited about the elections? Add to that the nonsense electoral vote vs popular vote, gerrymandering, and the biggest of them all, the big money that always determines the outcome. Toe democracy is only a word. There is no way in the world that big corporations and specifically MIC allows average naive American voters to chose a president. Only my 2 cents.
Comments: However and with whichever lens you want to look at jan 6, the country did not change and democracy is intact. We have the same process as previous elections to elect a president. Even though The Supreme Court gave the presidency to the Neocons in 2000 election between GWB and Al Gore, there is still a lot of questions on legitimacy of that call by SC in favor of the Neocons. Al Gore to this date believes that he won Florida and claimed that during the process of recount ballots by black voters were tossed out in far greater numbers than any other demographic. These are facts and not conspiracy theories. That's the neocons for you and since their emergence 25 years ago, the country has been in a downward spiral.
Comments: My prediction is Wisconsin will be the determining state in this election.
Comments: Farzad: What Trump was 30 years ago is irrelevant. What is relevant is the overturning of Roe vs. Wade and perhaps ACA by a 6-3 Supreme court that he has in his pocket. I also I have no confidence that he will bow out easily if he loses, remember Jan 6th?
Comments: Ok. I just noticed the Neocon / Globalist question came from Saeed. Makes sense now. I was surprised you (Shahin) questioned if they even exist. But it was not you.
Comments: Shahin, I know what image you have of trump and that is why you made that comment about TULSI and RFK. When I say this, I am being truly sincere. Trump is not really a Republican by definition. Sure from an economy and tax standpoint he is. Many of us are. Trump for example was an avid admirer of Bill Clinton Presidency. He voted for him and he supported and was by his side during his scandal. They were friends, played gulf together, and Bill Clinton even suggested to Trump he should run. If you rewind to 1998, Trump had a very different view of Bill Clinton, defending him as the real "victim" in the wake of the fallout of the Monica Lewinsky scandal and blasting the accusers as "terrible". “They've taken nothing and made it a big monster,” Trump said in reference to the Lewinsky scandal. “I mean they've made Watergate out of really what should've been nothing.” “I think he's terrific. I think the guy's terrific. I just hate the way he tried to get out of this mess,” Trump said. "In terms of myself, I love him as a president because business has been great, the economy's been booming. We have to give him credit,” he said. 
Comments: I am going to make a prediction that by the November election time, neither RJK jr., nor Tulsi will be on Trump's team and will be having a falling out
Comments: Just went on my walk in the neighborhood. I thought you guys get a kick out of this ![[smile]](https://cdn.websitetoolbox.com/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif "Smile - :)") ![[IMG-2690]](https://i.postimg.cc/52H0vn05/IMG-2690.jpg)
Comments: 🔴 مهدی غضنفری مدیرعامل صندوق توسعه ملی پیشنهاد بازگشایی سفارت آمریکا و برقراری روابط کنسولی را ارائه کرد! ✍ غضنفری خطاب به رئیس جمهور نوشت: آقای پزشکیان 🔹حالا که همه ارکان نظام در کنار شما و دولت شما هستند؛ لطفا در صورت صلاحدید، چند کار بجا مانده از سالیان دور را اجرایی کنید؛ شاید بهتر باشد این کارها قبل از اتمام ماه عسل انجام شود. 🔹بخاطر دارید که عدهای دانشجو (به ظن قریب به يقين با توطئه حزب توده) سفارت آمریکا را تسخیر کردند و با یک کار بیهوده، سنگی در چاه انداختند که هنوز کسی نتوانسته آنرا درآورد. 🔹حالا البته میدانیم موضوع جاسوسی و جمع کردن اطلاعات توسط سفارتخانه، امری عادی است ولی خب شاید خامی حکمرانی داشتیم. 🔹خوبست حداقل به احترام مردم ایران، روابط کنسولی در محل سفارت آمریکا در تهران احیا شود تا ایرانیان بسیاری که در آنجا هستند براحتی تردد کنند. 🔹پ.ن: البته بد نبود یه قانون میداشتیم که هر کس به جرم حمله به سفارتخانهای دستگیر شد، هر روز صبح، به مدت ۱۰ سال، در جلوی آن سفارت بیانیهای را در عذرخواهی از مردم ایران قرائت میکرد و یک ساعت هم خیابانهای اطراف سفارت را جارو میزد.
Comments: Shahin, as I mentioned the podcast that Lex Fridman had with RFK in the very beginning touches on Russia and Putin. Like the first 5 min. https://youtu.be/NPtBkw5uD-0?si=ZmxLaMZdn9H76Auk
Comments: Globalism in terms of economics is a great idea. And even sounds good on surface. No question about that. But like anything else it does have underlying details which raises eyebrows. Over the past few years, globalization and the international expansion have empowered other countries like China and India, while the United States has been on the decline. Not the greatest model for Strong America. Unless you are average Z and strong America is irrelevant to you. In the world of Globalism China and India are considered developing countries. Like are you fucking kidding me? One is number 2 and the other is number 5 largest economy. And you know what that means? When it came to Paris accord (clean air) they don't contribute Jack shit. They don't have to comply and they don't have to pay and they are exempt. US pays for them. That is wrong. That is why Trump left the accord.
Comments: Shahin "So the Neocons were working hard to benefit IRI?" My answer is very simple to that question. Neocons have one interest. And that interest is not national interest of the United States. Their main interest is Military Industrial Complex, Halliburtons and ..... it is to the benefit of certain industries and certain individuals... and yes Neocons were 100% in charge during GWB / Cheney. Project for the New American Century authored by the masters of neocons, Bill Kristol and Robert Kagan explains it all https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_for_the_New_American_Century#:~:text=It%20said%20the%20United%20States,prosperity%2C%20and%20our%20principles%22. |
