    Its honestly strange to see non US people who have bought the propaganda as much or more than some people in the US.

      Yeah that’s what’s so strange, they act like we believe in the propaganda. It’s like they completely forget that a lot of us were fighting this battle 25 years ago and fucking lost. The people who were chest thumping now are the same ones who were chest thumping for authoritarianism 25 years ago. Any time I see some idiot European post “Americans, I thought you…” it’s a dead giveaway that their stupid ass didn’t pay attention to the post 2001 fall of democracy. This didn’t just happen overnight…

      I don’t think many of us did, but we at least expected the average American to buy it, and yet it seems they didn’t.
