We have to agree to disagree. The points of Religious extremist/nationalist must apply to all or none.

I should say the rules haven't changed they were always designed to keep power and wealth. But the likes of Obama, Blair, Clinton, bush,Thatcher at least tried to be polite with thier rule breaking and look for "wars".

the rules have changed over the years, as Western countries applied different rules to themselves than to the developing countries, to maintain their hegemony. As the rules are bent and manipulated,they break. And any effort to look like adherence to rules isn't needed. Return to A state of nature

MAGA is also using ethno Christianity to bolster its cause. Or visa versa. So it become a extreme nationalist religious movement, not dissimilar to those regimes that the West/US keeps saying are threats (Isreal being the exception).

Not sure a religious mindset is taking over, but religion is being manipulated (as always) to enact power. Regardless of if or what you believe, religion bring people together for good and bad. And is used by powerful actors for thier own means under thier ideas of what a "God" wants.

People won’t trust courts or parties. They won’t believe evidence. They’ll be certain their side is right, no matter what reality says.
That’s not disagreement. That’s epistemic fracture. And once it sets in, it’s nearly impossible to reverse.

From a climate point of view bombing the fuck out of things, creating mass placement, rebuilding a state, all the manufacturing of warfare; well it's not exciting climate friendly. Or have isreal got recycled bombs, paper bullets and solar powered helicopters and tanks.

Not a stunt. They knew they wouldn't be allowed, it's about raising awareness. Don't think it damages anything other that showing exactly what was intended. I think it enhances the campaigners standing x 100. As is Greta has stated you can't separated human right from climate crisis.

"National emergency" opens up many avenues for Trump. He's looked at isreal and Russia and seen what war allows internally. Is also passed that his tariffs could be enforced because of no "emergency" so he's created 1. the mid terms, democracy will be destroyed by a manufactured emergency

Sure they will take it out on the protesters. When dust settles they will just say they were following orders. Heard that before!!!!

Capitalist carcerality in full swing. Create the conditions to criminalise more, invoke more social control, surveillanceand oppression, move public money to private companies on behalf of "law and order" and "war on".

Then all the western leader will act surprised and say "never again", again. Happy for allies to do what they like, but non allies must adhere to the global rules.

Let's also recognise that this spending has to come from somewhere, so increased taxes and reduced spending elsewhere. The trade will appease the US, and public money will move to private profits out of the country.

The idea Russia is going to go on rampage across Europe is for the birds.
Warfare will look alot more about technology, which is why the Subs to protect ocean cables.
Since 1970 "War on" footing has resulted in increase surveillance and criminalsiation of citizens.
I suspect the same will happen.

Until we have international peacekeepers/monitors on the ground the genocide will continue.
There is also the west bank expansion, do hamas control that. No.
