Probably the only good thing Trump has done. He ripped off the mask that America was wearing, and showed everybody their true self.

    I wish it wasn't true, but the more I read about the US the worse it gets, all the way back to its golden days and beyond.

    It is way worse than even you think it is.

    Oh, I am just being silly. I have studied human rights my entire adult life and I only know a fraction of what the US has done and will do.

    It would take more than my lifetime to just recite all the lives destroyed and atrocities committed by the US.

    Ahh, that makes sense. Yeah, I just recently finished a book on the US military, and holy shit. I knew the gist of their crimes, but knowing the details really puts things in perspective.

    My latest kick is environmental crimes and man is it bad. Leaded gas alone has killed hundreds of millions of people. Not to mention every single human on the planet poisoned with both forever chemicals and plastics.

    From participating in multiple genocides to the two greatest murders of civilians in a single day the US knows no modern equal.
