  • Be me

    American

    See shitty right wing government doing shitty right wing things.

    Sigh.

    I bet I know who’s behind this.

    Google the history of that government.

    Greece was the first proxy war of the Cold war, with the US backing the Greek Monarchy, who were ultimately the victors.

    We probably ran similar propaganda and right-wing violence campaigns there as we did across the global south.

    What a fucking surprise.

    Happy July 4th everyone.













  • I was alive and in the US then, too. I very plainly remember the nationalist fervor that the US was wrapped up in at the time; I remember the Dixie Chicks getting cancelled before cancelling was a thing because they called Bush out. Nothing exists in a void, history is ALL context.

    Look, in a week, I’ll be drinking water, downloading memes, and going to work, not thinking about freedom fries. If you want to still be thinking about this shit by then, don’t let me get in the way of a good time.
