Whenever politicians have something to sell us, they frame it in terms of war to blunt our senses and prevent us from thinking straight.
How many times will we be caught in this cycle?
All these wars have cost a fortune and made no positive effect.

We are now being sold two brand new wars:

  1. We must look at climate change as if it were a devastating military attack against the United States and the entire planet. And we must respond accordingly -- apparently, we must toe the line and stop talking

  2. War on Guns -- disarm law-abiding citizens instead of criminals.


How about we limit the number of wars we fight at the same time?
How about we stop a few existing wars before starting a new one?

PS. The subject is a mis-quote from Hanns Johst.
