      What changed is who's against war and who's for it. The sides flipped. Now liberals are begging for war and conservatives want Americans to come first. Was complete opposite in 2003.

      Well, the sad thing is, is that it will most likely always be relevant, has been since the beginning of humanity. I do not think peace protests will do anything. War has always existed and I do not think humans as a whole can get past that due to the evil and greed that has persisted forever. It’s a sad but true reality

      The same ghouls who manufactured consent for the Iraq invasion are at it again. We know how this movie ends and have a chance to abort this shitty soft reboot/sequel. Organize anti-war protests wherever you are (especially if you live in the US or another NATO member nation) on January 25 and say NO to War with Iran! popularresistance.org/global-day-of-protest-january-25-no-war-with-iran/

      it genuinely feels like it's never not gonna be relevant. War never changes, they're always being fought and it's just becoming gruesome for some reason. It's sick that humans never learn.
