E.J. CURTIN—Nothing could be truer. When in 2014 the U.S. engineered the coup in Ukraine (coups being an American specialty), it allied itself with neo-Nazi forces to oppose Russia. This alliance should have shocked no one; it is the American way. Back in the 1980s when the U.S. was supporting death squads in Central America, Ronald Reagan told the world that “The Contras are the moral equivalent of the Founding Fathers.” Now the Ukrainian president Zelensky is feted as a great hero, Biden telling him in an Oval Office visit that “it’s an honor to be by your side.” Such alliances are not anomalies but the crude reality of U. S. history.

GARLAND NIXON—A nuclear war will be truly a catastrophe for everyone, a no-winners contest, and the survivors—including those billionaires and their running dogs who precipitated this disaster, like the neocon lunatics— may envy the dead, notes Garland Nixon. The bunkers will not offer a tolerable life, and soon enough, in the postwar world, the people with weapons and skills will overthrow and quite possibly outright murder their former masters.

Why It’s Wrong to Blame ‘Humanity’ in the Abstract for Climate Change, w/ Justin Podur
9 minutes readRANIA KHALEK—It’s widely accepted that humans are driving climate change and environmentalism has become mainstream. But what if “humanity” in the abstract isn’t to blame? Is it true that humans are inherently bad for nature? What if the real culprit is the systems we’re forced to operate under — capitalism, imperialism, colonialism— perpetrated by particular sections of humanity over others? So who, or what is to blame is really to blame for climate change?
