RE: Trump is BULLSHIT
i'm from the country in europe that provided the most "syrian IS fighters" pro capita lol ... belgium
( https://www.politico.eu/article/a-third-of-isil-foreign-fighters-return-to-europe-report/ )
well, euh i don't know why but steemit feels a lot friendlier than it did last year, ... since i sat it out with a few privileged who kept downvoting every single post i havent had any run-ins anymore, which is good, that way i can try to build something :p
As for Syria, it's been a battleground for years and years now and i can't shake the feeling its very convenient for both the US and Russia that they can use it as no man's land to test all their new gimmicks and strategies without actually having to fight each other (cf. Afghanistan where al qaeda was born) It is surprising however that it's put in the new as something 'new' and used as a kind of motivational beating stick to warm your american people (who grew very tired of sending out soldiers everywhere as i understood) for a new batch of war. For a moment there i thought Trump in all his testosterone might actually not start a new one during his legislature (or tenure what do you call it overthere) but it's still a conundrum, with Kim Korea saying he wants peacetalks 'as long as the states don't invade' i'm totally like wtf ??!?
what is going on here behind the screen where the plebs and small fry like us can't see whats happening ?
there's no obligation to answer lol, i try as much as , but i miss a lot sometimes, because there's this thing called life outside the screen and all that 
i can no longer backvote anyone who voted me btw, its become too much but its very nice to have people here to talk with, not just to :p, on a variety of subjects i'd be lacking around here, and i have been , for years, from anything critical criticism, anarchy (non violent resistance that is) particle physics, the war-machine ... homesteading ... the mechanics of the system, you name it :p
so ... if you feel like answering please do, and if not , then don't feel bad for that lol
see you around, take care
lol yeah my guy, I've been taking some time for myself from the constant overflow of information. Politics and news in general give me uncessary stress sometimes lol!! As to the people who kept downvoting your content, I'm sorry about that. The internet is filled to the brim with douche bags. It wouldn't be the internet without them haha. With or without them, I'm sure you'd flourish either way since you seem pretty fucking smart, not going to lie. d:
As far as Syrian politics. I agree. There are no "good guys" in these wars. I imagine the world looks like a chess board to the major powers of China, Russia, U.S. & Europe. There are no good guys, but just the "lesser of two evils".
I'm going to give you a link to this steemit post i found on here. Read it if you want, and give me your take will you? You don't have to though!! :)

Also, "tenure" is appropriate. Since you're from Belgium (badass!), I'd like to clarify that Americans are tired of war. Which isn't just my opinion. Poll after poll, Americans disagree with our government's intervention. We basically DO NOT live in a democracy. We live in an oligarchy. I feel as if the EU, especially the U.K. are dragged along with my governments decisions.
well, most would agree, but its actually the politicians who don't want to look poor and thank you (but belgium is not bad-ass its just a cesspool) they try to keep up but they dont have the money, meantime they try to BE but they cant so they're stuck with
a cesspool
the last polls here that made it to the news got outright overturned
the last one ISSUED by the governments (of which we have five in this strange little place) got overturned after everyone said "NO"
enlightened despotism (i didnt pull that out of a hat to start ranting about it to everyone lol) is not democracy, you say oligarchy, thats pretty close to what they call russia then, id call this place enlightened despotism, i dont think those people have it in them to dictate, i think they are simply SO far away from reality they have no clue what they're doing
and the "experts" they surround themselves with have a lot of paper on the wall
but as much empathy with the gutter and the peasant
or the working class hero for that matter
as a god would with a flea
they don't get it :)
critical minds are critical, you dont need to start a physical revolution to keep the underground alive
although sometimes it ends up like that
i hope i wont have to see that in my lifetime here
