      Is this critical of the anemic ‘no kings’ protest movement or is it the idea that no kings could or ought to include opposition to the war with Iran in its agenda?

        What agenda? No Kings is very loosely organized. The only reason it looks like it is organized is because Cheeto Mussolini has convinced so many people to get up and protest against him specifically, and a small group of people threw together a website and a date. It’s the closest thing I’ve ever seen to functional anarchy.

        Understanding the context of a conversation you’re participating in is helpful in not appearing completely clueless and irrelevant.

          Getting prickly and defensive about the fact that you only oppose one specific figurehead of the capitalist empire because he’s personally odious does not make you any more “the opposition” than the next never-trump-republican, which is what democrats are. Get a clue, join the good guyshammer-sickle. Death to America, free Palestine.

            You don’t know a single thing about what I support or oppose.

            What I do know is that it is idiotic to bitch about a protest movement that is against the unilateral disastrous decisions this tyrant is pushing the country into, for not singling out a specific disaster that everyone there is also against.

              You don’t know a single thing about what I support or oppose.

              Okay, do you support the complete dissolution of the United States government in all capacities, immediately followed by the construction of a communist proletarian government?

              Or do you just want things to “go back to normal?”

              the unilateral disastrous decisions this tyrant is pushing the country into

              No. These are decisions that the circumstances of late stage empite is pushing the country into, the same circumstances that created and elevated trump in the first place. If that shooter had taken his stupid head off, the only thing different about American policy would be the name signed to it.

              a specific disaster that everyone there is also against.

              Where is the evidence of the liberals there being against this war, or (more importantly) being against this war on any grounds other than “the dumb guy is doing it dumbly”? I seem to recall a different imperial war in the middle east prosecuted by a dumb republican, to which the liberal democrat’s response was “we could do it smarter”.
