    Frequent airstrikes on civilians in Gaza even since the ‘ceasefire’, frequent attacks on likely fishermen/migrants in the Caribbean, strikes on Yemen and Iran within the last few months, Ukraine war, Cambodia-Thailand conflict, ISIS kidnapping in Nigeria less than two weeks ago, attempted arson on a train in Chicago last month, ongoing Afghanistan-Pakistan conflict, Bombing in Delhi last month, I can go on

    Does ‘chronically online’ just mean not wilfully ignorant?

      Also ICE raids, violent union busting, enforcement of private property keeping hundreds of thousands homeless and millions more on the brink. But sure we’re just “chronically online” God I hate libs.

        The gulf between the wealthy class and the rest of the country has reached the critical point where those with power see all of us as “foreign”. The imperialism is turning inwards.

        The wealthy don’t even live in the same world we do, nevermind nation.
