Mark Ruffalo is single-handedly making most of Hollywood look like soulless cowards. It's actually not that hard to stand up for what's right when you're a rich celebrity. You never have to play nice with fascists, ever.

Michael Parenti "A client state is a state which is run by a comprador class. A comprador class is a ruling class that is in total collusion with foreign investors.” Revived US Monroe Doctrine in Latin America seeks an entire continent of client states ruled by the interests of US oligarchs.

Calling Trump a traitor for minimizing joint military exercise participation is partisan BS. Not defending fascist Trump, I hate him. We should shut down every base outside US territory, & that means Korea too. The outrage we are seeing? Liberals will stand with Conservatives to protect the empire.
