Re: Poking the Bear Again
the Neoconservatives were the Democrats who were teenagers when JFK was President
when the Democrats went further left, with Humphrey, McGovern & Jimmy Carter
those JFK Boomer Democrats flipped to Ronald Reagan

Re: Poking the Bear Again
same thing happened with Trump
after being screwed by the Neoliberals, Clinton, Bush & Obama, a large cohort of Democrats flipped to Trump

Bill Kristol’s “The Weekly Standard” is certainly NeoCon; they call themselves “NeoCons;” and by your definition, they act like NeoLiberals.

Re: Poking the Bear Again
You’re calling so-called “Reagan Democrats” NeoCons; I’d never heard that.

if you prefer the Millennial definition of "NeoCon" which basically just means "Bad Guys", then I can't stop youMartin Hash wrote: ↑Wed Apr 14, 2021 10:40 pmYou’re calling so-called “Reagan Democrats” NeoCons. I’d never heard that.
you will be as stupid as a Millennial then, but I can't save you from yourself

Re: Poking the Bear Again
Boomer, Neocon, Fascist
the Millennials throw these words around as pejoratives, but they have no idea what they mean
they all mean the same thing to idiot Millennials : "Bad People"
Millennials are still like little children, even into their thirties, arrested development generation
they are mostly miseducated, more brainwashed than they are schooled
school was indoctrination camp for them, and all their fragmented knowledge is from the internet
they have no culture of their own, they have no history, they have no knowledge
they just have fragments taken from the Boomers & Gen X which they picked up here & there on the internet
this whole generation has been fucked up by the internet, they are literally retarded

Re: Poking the Bear Again
for the exact same Neoconservative reason
in 1980 it was because the Democrats were soft on the Soviets
in 2016 it was because the Democrats were soft on the Chinese
whenever the Democrats start to appease the Communists, that's when Reagan Democrats flip to the GOP
that was MAGA in 1980, that was MAGA in 2016, MAGA is Neoconservatism incarnate
Clinton, Bush, Obama, they are all New World Order Neoliberals
Cold War's over, Fukuyama's End of History, America as the hyperpower being all things to all people
Trump was a return to the old Cold War Neoconservatism, except now the New Cold War is against China

Re: Poking the Bear Again
I suspect the reason the EU and the US don't see eye to eye on Ukraine is because the tactic is different. The EU wants to bring all the old Eastern European countries into the liberal democratic European community. The endgame is to bring in Russia as well through ideological osmosis.
The Americans are more pragmatic. They just want to contain Russia. They will surround the entire country with failed, destabilized states if they have to. A ring of rubble. That is the future that I predict for Ukraine. Like Chechnya, just bigger.

Re: Poking the Bear Again
If you want to know what regions might experience "unrest" in the near future look at a map like this.
For example the part of China that those pipeline projects are heading into is the province of Xinjiang, you know where the Uyghurs live. Funny how that works.
