    The Statesian capitalist class. The idea that Israel controls the US is an attempt to scapegoat Israel now that public opinion on the Zionist entity has reversed. Israel may be a genocidal settler-colony, but it is only so because the US supports it for their own imperialist interests in the region.

      “Statesian”? “Zionist entity”? You talk like Jordan Peterson.

      You know there are much simpler, more descriptive words for these, yet you choose these 5 dollar words to sound more academic and thus more respectable. Academia is not about obfuscating ideas and obscuring reasoning.

        If you think everyday words are $5, get a weekly vocabulary lesson for free, online. It’s not up to us to dumb ourselves down all the time, drag yourself UP, and get the needed hand.

        I didn’t realize Jordan Peterson was an anti imperialist. I’m not an academic, I chose my words deliberately to convey my feelings about the subjects.
