That is exactly what genocidal war criminals do. And no one can stop them because they are protected by the US. The only thing that is new is that fascism no longer even bothers to hide its ugly face behind a mask.

However, I find it quite telling how even US citizens, who are fully aware of what a monster their president is, still look for excuses so they don't have to admit that they are now exactly the kind of utterly unscrupulous rogue state that has always been demonized and portrayed in the media as the enemy of the American people.

A good example of this is the bombing of the girls' school a few days ago. For some reason, "patriotism" (or whatever) creeps back in and US citizens once again believe their regime, even though they should have known long ago that everything coming out of the White House these days is a blatant lie.

I can't for the life of me remember the last time I read any statement from the US regime that contained even a shred of truth - and what's more, it is by no means the only school or hospital that this coalition of mass murderers is deliberately targeting in order to spread terror.

For this reason alone, I simply cannot understand how anyone can still be carried away by this misguided "love of country" bullshit. The only patriotic thing to do would be to finally organize a general strike that lasts until the criminal US-regime, together with all its monstrous enablers, is in prison.

Brother, Trumo has over 40% popular support. American aren't looking for excuses they are supporting this.

As I said, I'm not a fan of generalizations because they have little to do with reality. The US has a political system that doesn't even take the population of states into account. If that were the case, Harris would have won back then with almost two million more votes.

What US citizens can certainly be criticized for, however, is their passivity. Yes, there are protests in the US, some of which are among the largest this country has ever seen, but given how utterly corrupt the political system is, I cannot understand why there has still been no general strike that could very well paralyze the country until the reforms that have been necessary for decades are implemented, the failure to implement which has led the US to the brink of dictatorship in the first place - and the absence of which has ensured that the country has been an oligarchy for several decades.

I understand your anger and I share it to a certain extent, but I can only warn against falling into nationalistic thinking, because that is precisely the kind of thinking that leads to war and misery instead of exchange and understanding.

Lord of words. No action. Typical Amerian.
