it’s that simple.
While I have several substacks bookmarked, so far this is my only subscription, and the author very kindly gifted it to me. If you can afford to support this author’s speaking truth to power, please consider it, and please consider supporting deadlines, dessalines, nutomic, and altmediaguy. They whisper truth through the angry and loud CIA/Mossad propaganda, that has become overgrown poison ivy in the Western world.
*The current US Administration…
I am also the US, as is my spouse, my neighbors, and my goofy artist father, amongst many others.
E pluribus unem
I do not support the core of the current administration. There are however plenty of good folks in office too–nationally and more locally, depending on the area.
The world is not so black & white.
How is this POSSIBLE? Our PRESIDENT got the FIFA Peace Prize!
The article makes no argument for why the US is more of a threat than other states or non-state actors. Just that it’s bad. For sure, it’s bad. Really bad.
But the biggest threat to world peace? Get real.
The article itself clearly acknowledges that the west is generally still simpatico. So is it the US that’s the threat, or is it Europe and Australia too?
This conflict is challenging because it’s a couple of bad guys shooting missiles at third bad guy, who then shoots back at the first bad guy and the other bad guy’s bases located in yet more bad guy countries.
Ukraine is maybe less challenging. Dude was just standing there when Putin decided he wanted to steal a chunk of a sovereign nation. It’s not a CIA Op.
Has been since at least the 50’s.
Our super power is extinction. As in we murder all our enemies until they no longer exist and take their land. It is the secret sauce that made the USA so great.
The link just goes to a photo. There’s no article.
No it doesn’t, there’s an article.

Not for me either, just a photo.
Mine didn’t go directly to an article either. Just the photo. Hmmm
Same
Weird, it goes straight to an article for me.
Yes, I got that from your earlier comment, which is unhelpful.
Looks like it could be an issue between kbin/mbin and lemmy. Switched to Piefed and yes, it does show up. Not sure how exactly they shared the link to make it appear for some users and not for others.
links to an article for me
Maybe it’s your client or instance?
It’s happening to me as well on Boost for Android
I don’t know. I’m using the default web frontend. Maybe something is getting its wires crossed when the post is passed between instances. I’ve seen this happen before.
I use the web interface as well. And I believe you post in good faith. Were you able to copy and paste the URL?
This is the URL the post title links to for me:

Thanks. Evidently there’s some kind of intermittent problem, probably on my instance as you suggest, and apparently some others too.
It may be a federation issue. Perhaps post it in the meta for your instance so admin can investigate?
You’re always welcome, my friend.
What substack? You didn’t link anything.
the United States is the greatest threat to world peace and humanity on the planet. ( thespectaclemag.substack.com ) Maeve , 1 hour ago (edited 34 minutes ago) to progressivepolitics@lemmy.world icon Progressive Politics
Idk why you can’t see the link.
We all need to do better to support opposition candidates and show the world we aren’t in alignment with this scum.
In first past the post elections, right?
The only oppo candidates wouldn’t run as D or R
The Solar System
yes…and ?
I think we’re stuck on “pending.”
What saddens me is that the U.S. could have been the complete opposite.
After WWII, the modern day version of carrier strike groups could have been made more numourous and larger. But instead of just patrolling chunks of the ocean for no goddamn reason, the MOMENT a country’s armed forces cross into a neighboring country that agressor country gets obliterated by the strike group in that location.
In turn, the US could never seek to expand its borders, and would remain neutral in all future conflict.
Sure this would have pissed Russia off, but look at China - other than their childish problem losing Taiwan and Hong Kong (RIP) they probably wouldn’t have had a problem with it.
Hell, the US DEMONSTRATED the capability to do this with the first Gulf War.
I will now wait for a chaotic inbox.
Saying this in a world with Russia is mindboggling
Russia is terrible. The united snakes was always on another level of evilness
Yes we were.
Russia is your boogeyman. Russia and the US is everyone else’s boogeymen.
Can you carefully explain what’s happening in Ukraine and 🏳️🌈 folks in Russia?
We don’t buy the CIA/Mossad narrative anymore.
“I say things you like on a blog, give me money”?
Unlike popular posters on the CIA/Mossad ops instances, this writer is actually informed. I’m not the author, btw.
How do I know this guy isn’t a CIA/Mossad op?
Mainly because they go against the psyop narrative
I believe as of now, that title is still held by Russia; but yes US is a strong contender
Fact is that the usa bombed more countries, overthrew a bigger numbers of democrarically elected leaders and governments, backed the longest occupation existing, held the longest blockade in modern history, is involved in the two most serious current genocides : sudan and gaza
That’s the peanut butter cup of shitholes. One and the same now.
thats the scary thing about now. We have never been more like russian than in the last year. Im not a fan of regular attemtps to start ww3.
The US Gov and the reds, that is.
The compliant civilian population too.
That’s why they hit the Iranian nuclear power plant, right? 🙄
I’m not disagreeing with you so I’m not sure where the attitude is coming from.
But hey, if you wanna be hostile, fuck you pal! :)
