      Ok, honest question. That Wikipedia article doesn’t seem to say anything about him being a piece of shit, what do you mean?

        Honest question, did you read the wikipedia article?

        “In 1997, Kagan co-founded the now-defunct neoconservative think tank Project for the New American Century with William Kristol. Through the work of the PNAC, from 1998, Kagan was an early and strong advocate of military action in Syria, Iran, Afghanistan as well as to “remove Mr. Hussein and his regime from power.” After the 1998 bombing of Iraq was announced Kagan said “bombing Iraq isn’t enough” and called on Clinton to send ground troops to Iraq.”

        He is a neo conservative, which I dunno if it qualifies him to be a POS but it does make everything he says pretty fucking suspect.

        Sure, the never trumpers are better than not but they still helped usher in this current day madness
