They are waiting for you to wake up. Ergo all the bullets. Anyhow it’s not a U.S. thing. Russia, UK, China, whoever. Same shit different pile. Anywhere you go in this world, old people and politicians support egregious policies in the name of whatever cause they claim to be helping, even Ireland. The Clash said it best:

If you can find a Afghan rebel
That the Moscow bullets missed
Ask him what he thinks of voting Communist
Ask the Dalai Lama in the hills of Tibet
How many monks did the Chinese get?
In a war-torn swamp stop any mercenary,
Check the British bullets in his armoury…
Que?
Sandinista!
