      I mean, the US bombed Iraq in 1998 to distract from an adultery scandal. It’s not exactly unprecedented.

      The United States of America needs to be disarmed. Since they’re not willing to do it themselves, their economy must be crippled so that they can’t afford their military.

        As a Californian can we just destroy the United States instead, it’d be more effective and longer lasting.

          the US needs to die, split into rednecks KKK white trash states, and modren nations like NY/California.

          those rednecks need to stop mooching off welfare and ruining the country and get fucked by their own policies

            I love how they get federal welfare and then complain about California and New Yorkers while also voting to screw them over in every way possible.

            Let’s not bash the Rednecks, the modern ones may be stupid but the historical ones were damned well good. Rip away the propaganda and my kin folk would probably revert to the corpo fighting union boys of old.

              are we talking ACAB monshiners, or old KKK? because they were often the same people. You mean the rednecks involved in Blair Mountain battle? those are cool

                Blair mountain, I’m specifically referring to Appalachian and Ozark Scots-Irish descended folks. The term Redneck got a wee bit bastardized during the 20th century, mostly due to being slapped onto every poor rural American sub culture when before it’s glorification post WW2 most poor WASPs would’ve shanked you for the implication.

                Also the reason I’m making this exception is because the very first Rednecks were an early labor movement back in Scotland, their descendants in the early to mid 1800s started to adopt the aesthetics and terminology.

        I really don’t think the US can survive as a single unit. It needs to split.

        Minor nitpick, it wasn’t Iraq. It was Afghanistan and Sudan

          In 1998 specifically, both. Operation Desert Fox and Operation Infinite Reach.

    No. The continued atrocities and cementing themselves in power are the primary goals: rounding up and disappearing people they don’t like, Venezuela, then Greenland and Canada. Distracting from the Epstein files happens as a natural side effect without much extra effort. Their lackey supporters (entire repub party, corporate & social media, etc) are busy doing that work for them.
