It's the best outcome. And the USA has shown their true colours and how they see themselves.

The best outcome would be for reasonable Americans and Russians to prevail and not let the lunatics take everybody down with them.

The government has, TBF. The people can often be wholly against this and myriad other asshole tactics by their "elected" representatives. For the record.

"The assholes we elected to represent us do not represent us." Or on the other hand, maybe they actually do.

Twice.

I mean I can understand people doing stupid things, but twice ? Nah.

I see it in what seemed like great USA coworkers, the propaganda makes them think EFF yeah America #1. There is sadly some truth to the stereotype of Americans being dumb. Its not that they aren't intelligent, its that they are easily swayed by flags and fireworks.

They've been chronically undereducated for over 50 years. The cult of anti-intelectualism has formed a populace unequipped to deal with basic logic and empathy. And an uneducated populace is much easier to control and steal rights and labour from.

Governments in democratic countries are elected by the people and are a mirror of said country.

One third of the USA voted for him knowing he is fascist and cared only about hurting minorities. Another third said we are sitting this one out knowing he is a fascist.

So two thirds of three hundred million people voted for this outcome and you are here defending them.

ASSHOLE.

The US was always the enemy, they just had hollywood to put up a good show to distract people from USAian atrocities.
