    Sadly in my experience libs are too scared to disagree with the state department because they hate to think our country’s the bad guy, let alone the worst guy. It’s not even going to be a hundred years from now that when you read about different countries and why they had horrifying events take place, the answer is ‘because America’.

    How did Chile lose their elected leader? because America

    How did Chile get such a violent dictator, Pinochet? because America

    How did North Korea lose 20% of their population in such a short amount of time and all their infrastructure was destroyed? because America

    How did North Korea not recover from that destruction for so long and without so much hardship? because America

    How did Libya lose their leader and get stuck in a horrific civil war? because America

    etc etc.

    You’ll note by the way the very bizarre nature of how geographically far apart these nations are; to the sensible man it seems insane that countries so far apart can be so horrifically altered by the very same force as though you’re reading about the ravaging of Middle Earth by Sauron and his orc and goblin armies.
