- Leadership knew that the taliban was not responsible for 9/11 but entered the country anyway. Unlike Iraq, there is no oil in Afghanistan. There was no strategic value in conquering this country other than intimidating other countries not to fuck with the states.
- USA spends 39% of global spending on military but has only 4% of the population.
- Vietnam is the most bombed country in the world.
- The US has caused so much suffering, instated dictators like Pinochet, fueled proxy wars in Latin America and in the middle-east, they even funded the taliban in the 80s.
- American foreign policy is insane and USA is a terrorist state.

We get surveilled just as much as people in Russia and China do
I disagree, the US factually spies on its citizens but china goes way beyond. I don’t think the US logs every piece of dissent and destroys your credit score with it.
You can think it, but you’re wrong.
That’s a good argument. “Nu-uh.” I’ll use that sometime.
