Let me ask it this way: if Red Don isn't a #Russian agent, why is he trying so hard to destroy the #Constitution and our #democratic institutions? He's done more damage to this country in 2 months than the #Soviets managed to accomplish in the entire #ColdWar.
He's #Putin's wet dream, his bitch, his stooge. With all the evidence of coordination with #Russia from his first campaign and term, the conclusion seems obvious: #President Fragile Ego Tinyhands is Putin's puppet.
Trump has never made so many excuses for someone as he has for Putin.
El Golpe: US Labor, the CIA, and the Coup at Ford in Mexico is a bombshell book on how US unions & the CIA teamed up during the Cold War to crush socialist labor movements & topple leftist governments abroad. The receipts are brutal.
#US / Newly released CIA report reveals Cold War activities targeting Israeli Communist Party
A declassified 1961 #CIA report details the agency's surveillance of the Israeli Communist Party (#MAKI). The 25-page document, released under the Trump administration, examines MAKI's leadership, its youth wing, and its connections to various Israeli organizations. The report highlights the CIA's concerns about the party's political influence and its efforts to undermine it. The report details the party's membership, split by ethnicity and origin. The report also reveals the CIA's focus on encouraging internal divisions within the party.
[...] The secret document reveals a glimpse of the depth of American global imperialist activity, and one can only wonder how involved then-Prime Minister Ben-Gurion was in the anti-democratic campaign in Israel, as according to the document, he expressed concern on more than one occasion that 'MAKI, MAPAM, and Israeli leftists would seize power
This release is part of a larger declassification effort related to the John F. Kennedy assassination.

Definition of 'simping' from https://fluentslang.com/simping-meaning/
The term simping is a slang term used to describe someone who obsesses over another person and goes to great lengths to please them, even if their feelings are not reciprocated.
@SocraticEthics The #BrainDrain from #Hungary to the #UnitedStates during #WorldWar2 and the following #ColdWar catapulted #American #Mathematics and #ComputerScience (John Von Neumann…), #Chemistry (George Olah…), #Nuclear #Physics (Leo Szilard…) to become the undisputed world leader in #science and #technology.
That brain drain resulted in the Russia-aligned country full of morons that you see today.
#DonaldTheDeplorable is also a #Putin puppet and starting a brain drain FROM here.
Trump and the tools of the old world order
An example of this is The United States Agency for International Development (#USAID) which was presented as a humanitarian force for economic and social development worldwide. However, its origins and operations paint a different much darker path, of geopolitical manoeuvring and #neoliberal hegemony over the last 40 years. Now, with the hard shift to the right, USAID is being gutted, alongside other long-standing institutions of the U.S. "liberal" global order. Origins and the Cold War […]https://hamishcampbell.com/trump-and-the-tools-of-the-old-world-order/
Today in Labor History March 12, 1967: Suharto took power from Sukarno in Indonesia. He ruled Indonesia as an authoritarian, kleptocratic dictator for 31 years, and is widely considered one of the most brutal and corrupt dictators of the 20th century. During that time, he amassed a fortune worth $38 billion. Suharto rose to power under Sukarno during the 1965-1966 genocide. During that ostensibly anti-Communist purge, Suharto’s troops murdered 1-3 million communists, labor activists, peasants and ethnic minorities. During that genocide, he received support military and economic from both the U.S. and the U.K. In 1974, the Suharto regime, with approval of U.S. president Gerald Ford, invaded East Timor, killing over 200,000 Timorese. Another 75,000-200,000 died from starvation and disease. The current Indonesian government is considering awarding him the posthumous honor of National Hero.
We are live witnessing the rapid collapse of the #USA by the new #fascist world order, now under the umbrella of the axis of #dictatorships.
What a time to be alive for someone who grew up in the #ColdWar.
May the people rise up against this tide and build a fairer and just society the without hyper-#capitalism that led to its demise.
In the meantime the first steps towards collapse in The #Netherlands is becoming more solid, with a #Putin-apologist leading its puppet cabinet to stagnate and sabotaging ours.
"The Jakarta Method: Washington's Anticommunist Crusade and the Mass Murder Program that Shaped Our World", by Vincent Bevins
#Book presentation: "In 1965, the U.S. government helped the Indonesian military kill approximately one million innocent civilians. This was one of the most important turning points of the twentieth century, eliminating the largest communist party outside China and the Soviet Union and inspiring copycat terror programs in faraway countries like Brazil and Chile. But these events remain widely overlooked, precisely because the CIA's secret interventions were so successful."
#Quote from book: “I fear that the truth of what happened contradicts so forcefully our idea of what the Cold War was, of what it means to be an American, or how globalization has taken place, that it has simply been easier to ignore it.”
Step inside the secret lab where #America tests its nukes
#Nuclear testing seems like a #ColdWar relic, but there are signs the world's nuclear powers may be readying to test again. Amid growing tensions, #Russia, #China and the #US are all upgrading their nuclear test sites.
The US work is taking place in a facility known as the Principal Underground Laboratory for Subcritical Experimentation (PULSE). a secretive #nuclearweapons laboratory beneath the #Nevada desert.

The continually repeated claims that #Russia 'lost' the #ColdWar are sounding a little tired and a little desperate. Russian #cyber operations have been material in breaking the #UK out of the #EU, and installing #fascist or near fascist regimes in the USA, Hungary, and (for a period) Poland, and the advance of fascist and near fascist parties in virtually every country in Europe.
That's a very odd way of 'losing'.

I'm gonna list out my interests, and there's a ton of 'em. Classic autism move, getting obsessed with weird topics that stick with you forever.
Heads up, #Fediverse, you might lose it when I drop 100+ hashtags in one post. That's just how autism rolls I guess.

Today in Labor History March 1, 1954: The U.S. detonated Castle Bravo, a 15-megaton hydrogen bomb on Bikini Atoll. It caused the worst radioactive contamination ever by the U.S. However, this occurred after years of nuclear testing and contamination of the islands and waters around them. The U.S. detonated 23 nuclear devices on the islands from 1946 to 1958. They blew up the bombs on the reef, in the sea, in the air and underwater. They relocated islanders several times, each time to supposedly safe islands. But they neglected to provide sufficient food and water, causing starvation. When the islanders tried to catch fish to eat, or grow their own crops, they were so contaminated from radioactive fallout, that it poisoned all who ate it. Women started having miscarriages and giving birth to babies with abnormalities. To this day, it is still too contaminated for inhabitants and their descendants to return. A trust fund that had been set up to help support the survivors ran out of funds in the late 2010s.
Feb 27, 1950 TIME #ColdWar The big B-36 southbound from Alaska was on its last flight. Three of its engines were ablaze and it was settling fast. At 5,000 feet, Captain Harold L. Barry passed the order over the intercom: “Abandon ship.” Then he cut in the automatic pilot. Within seconds, all 17 aboard had leaped into a 55-mile gale, drifted down into the wilderness of Princess Royal Island, off the coast of British Columbia, 450 miles northwest of Seattle. It was a few minutes before midnight. https://time.com/archive/6614371/armed-forces-abandon-ship/
The United States of America is a client of the Russian Federation, and the whole world knows it.
Who won the #ColdWar now?

Hey #millennials and #zoomers who are dealing with your first bout of panic over World War III: Find yourself a #GenX friend to help you see through it.
We spent our childhoods in the shadow of the nuclear #ColdWar, alone while our parents were at work, watching cartoons and eating unheated Pop-Tarts from the foil.
We got you.
