having racist arseholes for parents is nothing new! Sorry if I've offended anyone, but these sociopaths make my blood boil. I feel they are fair game and don't deserve any protection after all the shitty domestic and foreign policies they've wrought onto the world over decades, whilst lining their pockets. They literally make me want to vomit. But this is US matters, so I'll stfu.

"we came, we saw, he died" was a horrible and unbelievably tone-deaf thing to say
even putting aside whether libya was a good idea or whether it was appropriate for someone in clinton's position to publicly crow like that over the death of anyone, it is not a great look for someone who's just participated in a military intervention to start paraphrasing julius caesar

There is a case that this bottleneck century (overpopulation + climate change + global poor outbid for calories + refugee flows that dwarf current ones) will offer a fertile ground for nationalist demagoguery and outright fascism throughout the developed world. It's a huge risk for liberal freedoms and social welfare systems. The demographic and food security projections are really dire. Military scenario planners have been using phrases like "lifeboat Britain" since the early aughts, and from public comments I'm certain that leaders like Macron have gotten their lifeboat ethics briefing.
So, I won't fault HRC for this tweet. At some point, one does the math on UN population projections and FAO food security indicators and climate change effects on crop yields and one hopes to not live to see the other side of the historical equation.

Not to be all 'no you're the know-it-alls' but Hillary is talking about Europe, and as a European I'd just like to point out that the refugee crisis was about Syrian refugees, and I don't think anyone really cares about Libya. Except Italy, but nobody really cares about Italy either. This whole discussion is kinda besides the point.

ok then

The refugee "crisis" has never been about one incident or one group of people as far as I can tell but hey maybe if the US and its client states had bombed Syria a bit more we wouldn't be having this problem

The big crisis that has kinda brought Merkel down was a specific group in summer 2015, sorta like a 'refugee caravan' in US terms. They were from Syria, and they play the biggest role in the European imagination. That's when a Hungarian journalist kicked a refugee, when Sweden closed it's borders, when people were walking on Danish highways, etc.

yeah even viggo got involved iirc

in fairness, the greatest eagerness to bomb Libya was among European leaders and the campaign was carried out by several NATO members, not just the US.
