Really good and really short video.

Ron Paul is a faggot. Anyone who doesn’t understand that Israel is not our friend is a faggot. Including trumps faggot ass. Sick of all the stupid fucking Israel bullshit.

He should have won. Ron is still the adult in the room.

Foreign aid is often given to maintain control of other countries and their resources. It always helps hold puppet governments. The Dictator's Handbook is a good book that covers a lot of this. Graber's work also talks about how States essentially need a monopoly on violence to exist.

The music in the background fits well, though I don't think it was necessary.

nice choice for memorial day.

The whole shit relies on our collective participation, they need us to vote (to say hey, "we" voted for it, this is democracy, are you against democracy?), they need us to work, they need us to buy, they need us to put our money on bank accounts (to tax us, to monitor and control us, and run their shits, mostly)

There's no messiah, no amount of foreign and fiscal policy can fix the shit "we" are in, there's no stop button

Non participation, starving of the beast, is the only real answer, and this system will pass and fall, like the british empire did, and for that very reason, it requires us to function and to be bound together, as a people, as a nation, by something beyond governments reach, something that cannot be subverted, immaterial, something capable to go through centuries

That thing, must be more than just an ideal, a political movement, a fad

It has to literally be the word of god...

Reminder that this man wasn't (/ isn't) president because Obama weaponized the IRS.

fhaqyu

well partially, but more because the media blacklisted him. unkike how they supported Donald trump, they made this guy seem as if he was losing the RNC race when he was in the lead. Trump got pushed to the top because of the media (and the clintons...)

There are several things going on here... I'm not sure I'm man enough to respond.

Plus the easily manipulated electronic vote counting, and fake polls and media lies already mentioned.

And the weaponized media too. The hate and outright ignoring of Ron Paul was all part of (((their))) playbook.

i didnt realize obamas IRS bullshit had impacted ron pauls run. how so?

goatsandbros

There were a lot of factors, including media-based false narratives, and likely others that were the fault of the party itself, but the Tea Party, especially grass-roots parts of it, were directly targed by the IRS, leading up to the election , and that's conceivably a significant one.
