BIDEN DEBATE DEBACLE – THE US EMPIRE’S POLITICAL COLLAPSE

Garland discusses the tragicomic debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, one a semi-demented war criminal and crook barely able to remain coherent for a few minutes, and the other a narcissistic, massively ignorant buffoon who in his own bombastic way personalizes the appalling state of the US empire.  He judges this debate a sure symbol of the Empire's decrepitude.

Garland opines that the current Democrat runners of the empire are a sorry incompetent and sociopathic lot who seem utterly unable to extricate themselves and the country from the idiocies they have shoved the US in, from a growing spate of unwinnable wars, from Ukraine to Israel to China, to an election almost certain to lose, no matter who represents them—whether Biden, Kamala Harris, or another similarly unappealing candidate in the wings. From the latest pathetic selection of presidential candidates to the no-win, reckless and stupid policies pursued by the US across the globe, it's clear the American Empire is fast approaching collapse.  Such collapse, warns Garland, cannot be avoided by the injection of ever bigger lies into the social dialog, from the insane idea that Ukraine is winning the war, or that China and Russia are dangerous and evil players in international affairs, to the manufactured notion that anti-semitism (as opposed to anti-zionism) is on the rise, and that Israel, in the name of "self-defense", is perfectly justified in using genocidal violence against the Palestinian people.
