Watching the Oscars, one would hardly know they came from a nation at war waged by a fascist regime. Der Spiegel rightly calls us out: "The cowardly Oscars. War outside, frivolity inside: The Oscars ignored the Trump reality."

@jeffjarvis Did they watch the show? Plenty of references. But it was also a night to celebrate the movies.
Germans and European countries were more than cowardly over many decades when the US wanted heavy sanctions on rogue countries, but they didn't want to risk higher prices. So please!

@hackbyte @jeffjarvis we had reasonable Presidents (Obama & Biden).
When they asked for sanctions against Russia, Europe was not willing to go strong. Watered down. Even with the Russia buildup before Ukraine invasion, Biden had trouble getting help to stand against Russia.

@JDPilley @jeffjarvis So, how long do you plan to ride that horse instead of fighting actual fascism within your country?

Do you realize that the actual invasion of the ukraine changed a lot of things?

OTOH, not every country _you_ see as "rogue" is actually a rogue country...

ACTUALLY; right now, internationally, the USA is seen as _THE_ *rogue* country, breaking all crontracts and treaties at a whim of some sick man still believing he is in a reality tv show.....

Heck, he now _BEGS_ and trantrums around nato stepping in for his insanely braindead war ...... which _HE_ started, together with netanyahu...

P.s.: We've never forgot ASPA.

@hackbyte @jeffjarvis Most Americans don't support tRUmp.
Most Americans don't support the Iran war.
Most Americans will (hopefully) fight fascism at the ballot box in November.
What have YOU done to fight fascism other than lump all Americans together as supporters of trump?
