Bully them.
Yeah, I've really swallowed the doomer pill lately. I'm going to keep doing my best to be a positive force, but I can't go so hard it stresses me out anymore. It feels like an unwinnable war.
The US empire is losing its power to control other countries.
China's power is growing, and with it, economic development in poor, imperialized countries will grow.
You just have to remember the US isn't the whole world, and you can bloom instead of doom.
And on top of economic development, imperialized countries will have more room for political independence, being able to skip UMF loans and work around US sanctions.
I am slightly emboldened knowing they can't even get high on their own supply anymore and are getting depressed because they realize they are useless.
It's not Americans doing it. It's the unelected government in DC (Obama's people called them "the blob", Trump's people called them the "deep state", take your pick) and they pay little or no attention to the preferences of the American people.
In her study of the Vietnam wars, Marilyn B. Young wrote that by the early 1950s, the US foreign policy establishment “had accepted a set of axioms … as unquestionable as Euclid’s.” The first axiom, she wrote, could be summarized as follows:
“The intentions of the United States are always good. It is possible that in pursuit of good ends, mistakes will be made. But the basic goodness of US intentions cannot ever be questioned. The intentions of the enemies of the United States are bad. It is possible that in the pursuit of bad ends, good things will seem to happen. But the basic badness of enemy intentions cannot ever be questioned.”
Havana Syndrome is just people going out and getting drunk in tropical places right?
I've seen it's any of the following:
- the sound of bugs making them think it's some sort of Sonic gun attack
- some sort of reaction to pesticides only the US embassies have been using
- Panic attacks/mental anguish manifestation
- Hangovers
The only concensus is that its not an ultra secret weapon being used on Americans lmao.
I just assumed it was a defensive weapon of some sort, likely an anti-surveillance device meant to disrupt snooping.
Then, "Oh shit, it's making people sick." Since the NSA must never be found at fault for anything, a quick and dirty "blame the foreigners" narrative was cooked up. It did very well, Trump did a very good job of making tolerant, understanding people hate Russia and Russians the way that nobody has since June 1941.
these guys are all hungover as fuck and instead of admitting to their boss they're all hung over, they make up some bullshit about a commie microwave weapon
Be sure to link this study that proves its probably bug spray: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/sep/19/havana-syndrome-mosquitos-cuba-diplomats
Even though I'm pretty sure the accidental pesticide exposure theory is true, I do like the "diplomats are just hung over and lying about it" theory me cause it makes the libs the maddest.
Havana Syndrome is 5G towers but for people who argue that since Bin Laden was killed, the Afghanistan war is not an L.
So much for believing in science, eh libs?
"How do all these Trump supporters believe in so many conspiracy theories😭😭😭" says party who believes in commie death rays
There's being terminally online, then there's is becoming the personification of the internet
Honestly the comments were already overwhelmingly dunking on this dumb idea when I got there.
