I have always believed that The American political system has nothing left to give to it’s people other than the vicarious experience of being the abuser. But as someone who is not American I have always seen this experience from a foreign politics perspective. Whenever America invaded a country ,performed a drone strike on civilians, or just starved another country through economic warfare; I always saw a lot of people in the comments celebrating the cruelty and making excuses as to why that cruelty is justified. This was of course a radicalizing experience while growing up; Because I don’t think this is the result of “evil” but the result of a psychopathic system reprograming normal people to be the psychopaths that it needs to do it’s bidding.
Born and raised red white and blue, and absolutely, America has always celebrated cruelty to foreign countries, especially poor and not-white countries. We’ve always been cruel as fuck to our own people, too. Trump & the Republicans have raised the curtain, though — there’s no longer any pretense at what’s been laughably called “truth, justice, and the American way.”
