Nothing will happen here, obviously.
When we point it out as it is happening, these left-adjacent liberals wring their hands helplessly. Then, months later, they act horrified when this shit gets leaked and pretend they didn't know. I'm mad but I'm tired.
They'll do the same for Lebanon and who knows what else.

I think it's the little shard of 2019 Bernie bro lodged in my worldview that if all the stars aligned just, just perfectly then the US would have no choice but to back down and do the right thing, or at the very least the less wrong thing.
I think that part of me is dying, though. This is a deeply diseased country. There is no hope for it to get better. Reading things like this and then going on to live my life in this place is probably my greatest shame.
Lying to us is one thing, but gaslighting and lying to congress is a whole 'nother ball game. How congress then goes on denying their eyes, ears, and constiutuents criminalizing anyone who is loud about congress not listening.

There are no depths of depravity that this hell country won't descend to in the name of securing business interests. It's a truly demonic place.
Like half the site I'm listening to blowback 5 rn and the parallels between Israel and Cambodia are myriad. I'm sure it's just a matter of time before the world discovers israeli killing fields.
if I didn't have to care for my parents I would already be gone
