I wonder if the US will ever start to properly reckon with the fact that they are also the baddies in this world. They are not the only baddies, by far, but they are intentionally not helping either, they are not innocent or altrustic, and they’re a large part of why so many other groups are baddies too. I think the myth of America fighting for democracy and freedom in the world, or the idea that they ever have been, is starting to fall apart. Stuff that used to be laughed off as “bringing democracy by force” and “fighting wars for oil” and “the war on drugs” and “the war on crime” and “the war on terrorism” is feeling a lot less like a playful joke and starting to hit with a much darker and horrifying reality of what was really being accomplished and what was really intended. I think people can see themselves and the clear reflection of America doing the same things Russia and Israel are doing recently, and it does not look good. Maybe it’s just me. But I hope it’s other people too.
as an American i can’t see how. my fellow countymen are idiots and are absolutely satisfied with their stupidity. and if and when they have to reckon with their stupidity, they blame anything but themselves. trash outside and in. i hate it here.
I wish we didn’t tighten up our boarder here in Canada but we had such an influx we had to shut the gate before everything was overwhelmed, I have friends from the USA that want to leave too :(

Their deeply ingrained American Exceptionalism won’t allow that to happen.
It would take a couple of generations of good quality education to make a dent in a century (or more) of conditioning that has convinced them that their country is the bestest there ever was, and that they can do no wrong.
To be fair I don’t see my government helping but that might be out of fear of retaliation. It’s Sad, I’d I might even call it a genocide through starvation and forced isolation thanks to the USA but I don’t know enough about the specifics to know one way or the other.
We should not be standing by and just watching a country suffocate and starve to death. If just one or two large countries were to support Cuba and eachother, the US loses it’s grip.
What’s America going to do, isolate itself from the world? America needs foreign trade too, it can’t survive on it’s own. Much of the world is already moving away from American influence/dependence anyway.

100% this. And because the “exceptionalism” is predicated on white supremacy it’s why the gov goes after people of color constantly.

Fuck America, let them retaliate.
