I feel like being against US imperialism is a higher concern than Musk saying "empathy is weakness"

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I fully agree, but that US imperialism is powered by tens of millions of people who listen to Rogan and Musk every day and think the US military are like the badass heroes in the Transformers movies. We don't make traction telling them "ARMY BAD" we make traction telling them to stop believing what they see. Carts and horses.

I don't think it's Rogan and Musk that are getting people to support US imperialism. It's so pervasive it's treated as the default. That's what leads to images like this one.
