The rest of them do not believe they have to hide their crimes anymore.
The problem is that they might be right. They’re effectively just wanting to accelerate the genocide and land taking until they’ve taken absolutely everything, before public pressure mounts up enough in, mostly america as their cash cow, to shut them down. They have the green light pretty much until the election, since everyone’s scared that a major change to the status quo will alienate massive amounts of support for their own base and guarantee an election loss, something that’s really only true for republicans I think, since a large part of that voter base is evangelical christian zionist. So they’re basically just trying to score as many points as possible before the timer runs out, and deal with whatever comes up afterwards, if anything even does.
They’re taking advantage of america’s domestic political turmoil and instability, basically, which doesn’t seem to show any signs of stopping for me, in terms of larger driving economic factors, unless we maybe get big sweeping FDR style reforms from kamala, which I’m not really thinking will be the case. Which for them makes a slight amount of sense, since they currently are basically just a vassal, a colony, of america, and produce little to export iirc outside of our military industrial complex, and as america collapses further and further, they’re going to need to establish a more sustainable base for themselves with their priority obviously being to maintain as much power as possible. which means that they can’t become a peaceful country or seek to play nice with their neighbors, which might not work anyways since their country is basically built on blood, same as america.
It seems on the surface like it’s just some short term strategy for them, but it’s only a short term strategy insofar as fascism itself is a short term strategy, and is a political philosophy incapable of actually having long term thoughts. But assuming their own political philosophy, all of what they’re doing makes sense. Which is precisely why a denial by the US right now and an increase in pressure would be so effective at curtailing them, if only we had someone with the cajohnes and political power to step up and do so.
