Even the guardian is saying "purge the military of leaders who support diversity and equity" instead of the truth: "purge the military of anyone not straight and white".

For those that don't know, the US armed forces have moved back into an abandoned military base (Roosevelt Roads) in Puerto Rico. Apparently they have been moving a lot of equipment there. Expect an American escalation in the Carribean.

The better way to make a change would be to become America's Qaddafi. 1. Pull USA out of Caribbean and Venezuela 2. Use the military to get ICE off the street and prosecute the fascists at all levels of government 3. Transfer power to democratically elected body.
I don't get why people in power quit out of protest. Then what, a fascist takes their place? Good thinking bozo.
Edit: this came up on my feed, I guess the wiretap is working lol
