BECAUSE...FEAR
BE AFRAID! People don't like us. Could it be because we slaughter them,
topple their governments, exploit their resources, and literally
sanction them to death? No, must be because we're just too damn good,
pissing the bad guys off. They can't hate us for our freedom anymore,
because we've been busy giving that away to the surveillance state.
We're like a boxer throwing his glove up to protect his face, only we
keep punching ourselves. All our opponents are winning because we keep
knocking ourselves out. The U.S. is a bully who should start asking
himself, "Why do I keep punching myself in the face?"
One solution is to donate trillions and trillions and trillions and
trillions of dollars to an organization that specializes in crushing
killing and destroying. Folks'll thank us for destroying their countries
and killing their families, right?
Makes as much sense as this
Crush-Kill-Destroy propaganda piece.
Crush-Kill-Destroy propaganda piece.
Millions of lives are destroyed and trillions are spent without tangible
benefits. What a racket! A counter-productive colossal waste that chews
up tax money like a black hole, but gets glowing reviews from the Lame
Stream Media. If you don't gain power or profit directly from the Military Industrial Complex, you should be asking for some accountability. What is it good for, indeed. The U.S. now wages war without discussion or analysis. We slaughter people everywhere and it's barely news worthy.
Endless global war has been sold to us as business as usual,
because…wait…it's coming to me…oh yea, fear. Endless global war is
actually catastrophically bizarre and a crime against humanity. Even
worse it is a crime against the planet Earth. One way or another
spreading conflict throughout the world will harm everyone, including
us.
