Friendly reminder that while I try to keep this account SFW, I owe no one anything.
I share my art, you look and that's it.
Anyone who does respect this boundary of mine, or is disrespectful, will be blocked.
Minors will be blocked too.
I need to stop you right there.
Because the rational America you're mourning, the one that "faced Vietnam" and eventually made calculated decisions, burned two civilian cities to ash to make a point to the Soviets.
Not to end the war. Japan was already negotiating surrender. Hiroshima and Nagasaki were not military targets selected because they would break Japanese resistance.
They were civilian populations selected because they would send a message.
To Moscow.
That is the rational America.
The rational America killed somewhere between 3 and 4 million Koreans between 1950 and 1953. It bombed the North so comprehensively that there were functionally no targets left standing by 1952.
General Curtis LeMay, the same man who designed the firebombing of Tokyo, said they "killed off twenty percent of the Korean population."
That is the rational America.
The rational America then went to Vietnam and deployed chemical weapons across millions of acres of farmland and human bodies.
Napalm on villages.
Agent Orange on children whose grandchildren are still being born with the damage written into their cells.
That is the rational America.
The rational America, in November 1963, in broad daylight in an American city, shot its own President in the head, and the Warren Commission's conclusion has been doubted by the majority of the American public in every poll taken since.
That is the rational America.
So when you say the rational America is gone and psychopaths have replaced it, I understand the feeling.
I understand why the current moment feels like a qualitative break, like something has crossed a line that wasn't crossed before.
But the line was crossed at Hiroshima.
The line was crossed at the Yalu River.
The line was crossed in the Mekong Delta.
What you're describing as a new psychopathy is the same psychopathy with worse approval ratings and a more fractured decision-making structure.
That is genuinely more dangerous in some ways. Incoherence is harder to deter than consistent irrationality.
But it is not a different animal.
It is the same animal.
It was never domesticated.
We were just told it was.
Who would have thought we would see a day when respected normie newspapers openly declare
- that Jews have been controlling US presidents since Truman.
- that the Jewish lobby is the most powerful in American history
(In reality, Jews played a major role dating back to WWI. They pushed Wilson into the war to aid the British - for the latter had promised to reward them with Ottoman Palestine in the Balfour Declaration.)
Many Christians support jews and israel.
Did you know in the Talmud (the religious text that's in every synagogue) it says that Jesus is burning in hell in boiling excrement?
Did you know it also says in the Talmud that the age of consent is 3 years old?
Did you know that Israel rigged bombs on toys to deliberately target children?
So if you support Israel and jews you support Jesus burning in liquid shit, child rape, and deliberate child murder.
And you wonder why people become Nazis.
