Spoony
The People's President
You're right.The only bit I disagree with it that we've lost our fake moral superiority. We will definitely roll it out when needed. It is built off the back of colonial genocide and included the bombing of Hiroshima and the pummelling of Vietnam with ordinance and chemicals at a rate which made world war 2 look like a skirmish. It's lies and dissonance and we have proven very skilful at that.
The foundations of our societies are built on the above and we just pretend it was ancient history. The establishment that didn't really mind Hitler is still largely in place, that sort of power and money isn't entirely gone in under two generations.
Like the US being built on slavery, Europe is not much further removed.
France Olympics 'We stand and call for peace' in the opening ceremony. That stuff just isn't funny anymore.
