      They think they're prepared or desensitized because every week theres a mass shooting. Some sickening machismo in there. But they have no idea what these other people really go through.

        10000% agreed. They don't understand the neverending string of holocausts after holocausts the west inflicts particularly on Muslims, indigenous peoples (and what they back against those in Latin America is even worse than in the north, too- full on death squads), upon Africa, what they have inflicted in living memory (60s, 70s, 80s) and want to return to inflicting on east and southeast and south Asia.

        I must admit, while it would be terrible and things should not go that far (unless it's MAD, then let the punishment of the heavens spew radioactive shit all over the Great Satan), if only they knew what it's like. YanKKKeestan and the west will either have to learn empathy or the rest of humanity will inevitably be driven to the point of wiping them out in complete and utter self-defense.

            Pretty much, he's just saying the quiet part out loud. Any lib with an inkling of historical knowledge (even of the cold war), or with an inkling of geopolitics combined with some meager understanding of the real workings of the modern economy/supply chains (granted, far less common than it should be), or who keeps up with news and doesn't have the memory of a beanis understands exactly how their bread is buttered even if they won't admit it to themselves or others.

        If as Malcolm X the chickens came home to roost none of them would put up the brave face they keep putting up.
