There was an absolutely surreal [interview](https://bsky.app/profile/atrupar.com/post/3mbplld6hxw2z) on CNN yesterday in which Stephen Miller shrieked that the “iron law of the world since the beginning of time” is, essentially, might makes right. Specifically in regard to Greenland he argued that because the United States is able to conquer it, it belonged to the United States.
This is part of a broader pattern of fascist rhetoric coming from the leaders of this administration and will surely further degrade the relationship between an increasingly belligerent US and our former allies in Europe.

He’s going to live a long time, because Hell needs to dig a pit deep enough to receive him.
If might makes right, then nothing is ever wrong.
Since that’s the case, why are we prosecuting people for armed robbery?
People like to quibble with the F word, preffering to call these jokers some other shade of “sparkling rightwing, authoritarian dipshit,” but this really is the core fascist worldview. I see any distinctions between what Miller and co believe and whatever the common definition of fascism is as singularly unimportant.
200 years of American democracy… And why? Because of the price of eggs? Because of Kamala Harris’s laughter?
I’ve been saying for a few years now that this is clearly the prevailing world view amongst these people. When you strip away the societal norms we’ve grown accustomed to, the only real power in this world is violence and who is most capable of inflicting that violence.
What confuses me is that the individuals so hellbent on sending us back to this primitive worldview of power>everything, are the exact individuals I could probably do unspeakable things to relatively easily. Like, if Stephen Miller and I were in a room together, I don’t think Stephen wants a world governed by power
Demented human being
Another example of the supposed saviors of “Western Civilization” adopting the ideology of barbarism.
>”governed by strength”
Stephen your bench press 1RM is negative five please stop talking.
and yet strangely you have none of those Miller. Man looks like he’d be a smear on someones fist if he ever got into a fight
The American empire is not dying, the American Republic is, the empire is just getting started.

For Canadians, this is unsurprising. We’ve had Americans yelling about how happy they would be to subjugate us for the last year, and the ones that didn’t had fun telling us that their exceptional country would never do such a barbaric thing.
The mask is off now. A lot of the population are deeply immoral people, brainwashed to think they’re the greatest most moral people that ever existed, and this is reflected in their leadership class and what they tolerate out of their elected officials.
I ask again why I never saw Steven Miller on a Democratic ad in 2024. This man looks speaks and acts in a way most Americans, even the dumb ones, understand is evil.
We know. That’s why we made international law, gentlemen’s agreement, so the bigger nations don’t have to deal with the precedence of reprisals, bombings, assassinations and escalations and troop commitments to enforce their occupations overseas.
It’s not because of softness, but resource conservation so you’re not bleeding out everywhere trying to hold everywhere in occupation against resistances or threatened with terrorists domestically while you’re extracting and settling everywhere.
Also, Rousseau is buying Hobbes another round in the afterlife again.
The only ray of hope now that the Trump admin is openly talking about wars of conquest is that this garbage is deeply unpopular with the American electorate. Whether that’s enough to stop them I don’t know.
Stephen Miller really does not want to live in a Hobbesian nightmare, because he would end up as breakfast for some warlord’s dogs in short order in such a world.
Ok, then why haven’t we bombed China yet, huh? Are we not the strongest nation on earth, Steven? Is that what you’re suggesting?
