    Sounds like some young people who haven’t been through this before. This is not going to lead to a war. The USA has been bombing other countries continuously for decades.

      Somebody should really bomb the USA for a change. I’d say new york would be a good start lmao just imagine all the dead yanks

      There are different levels of bombing. This wasn’t the US assassinating a single general. This was a strike on strategic assets comparable to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. We just did a Pearl Harbor against Iran.

      Might be the toughest opponent we’ve bombed since Iraq, which technically wasn’t a declared war either.

      You’re absolutely right, this won’t likely get bad for Americans. Being so far away with a huge military insulates us from the consequences of our actions abroad.

        Until it doesn’t, though.

      I mean, I dont see how it isnt a war already, this kind of thing is an act of war after all, and the other side doesnt have to be capable of equal retaliation for the term to apply.

        It doesn’t really matter what you call it. W. and Obama normalized not declaring war on the countries you bomb. It’s become normalized by this point

        Genuinely don’t know what reality you’re living in if you are typing this question after reading my comment.

    What I hope for those in other countries, is that they understand that I had no control or decision of what vagina I fell out of or what dirt I landed on.

    I did not choose to be American, I was just born here. And I most certainly do not agree or approve of any war.

    I do hope most other American citizens might agree with me.

    Fuck Donald Turd.

      You didn’t choose to be born to be American, but per your own admission in this thread you chose to not to vote. So you can fuck all the way off with this sanctimonious bullshit.

      It’s also hard to leave. Many of us would leave if we had the means. Even for those who wish to stay and fight the blossoming authoritarianism must wage a nearly hopeless battle against powerful disinformation machines.

        Exactly. You know how many countries US trans people can get asylum in? Zero. None. Zilch. There is not a country on Earth where a trans person in the US could qualify for asylum, even considering the vast rollback of trans rights currently underway. And if a member of a targeted minority group can’t get asylum status, then forget about nearly anyone else.

      I hear you, the issue for me is that a third of your country people voted for the cunt, another third didn’t care enough not to vote against the cunt, which leaves a large majority of Americans complicit in this - enough in my view to effectively use the term as a blanket reference to most people in the country.

      Speaking on a more granular level, I wish you well and the best of luck - but the majority of your population can go fuck themselves.

        Bombing Iran and letting Israel dictate American foreign policy are two things with strong bipartisan support.

        Hillary Clinton campaigned in 2008 on the promise to bomb Iran. Biden couldnt even bring it over himself to enforce a demand for Israel to no starve Gaza to death and let Netanyahu humiliate him in public multiple times. And Biden/Clintons are the ultimate Democrats establishment.

        Very clear explanation for xenophobia, no notes.

        A lot of people didn’t vote for him. A lot of people didn’t vote for democrat either. A growing number of people are voting for third parties now. Not enough to sway the vote, but enough to make a statement.

        I think, in my lifetime, we will see a third party finally elected. The leading parties just aren’t cutting it anymore.

        I voted for Kamala Harris. Never liked that orange fuck.

        A third did not vote for him. The popular vote was something like 51 to 48, which is insanely close. And a record number of people didn't even vote.

        It's more like 1/6 voted for the asshole, and then the dems gave up the win before the night even ended.

        Don’t think for a second we dont have a strong flood emotions when we see the 66% of Americans who are a complete drain on the people around them face consequences for their actions. The fact is, it doesnt happen nearly enough and it never changes anything.
