The u.s destroyed half my country, killed tons of my people, bought up the wreckage and now owns us. But none of you gave a shit, cause the news didn't tell you to care
Yeah that doesn't really narrow it down.
You poor soul, you must be a citizen of a nation on planet earth.
How are we supposed to know if the news doesn't tell us?
That's true for a lot of the states, let alone other extant sovereign nations.
And what country is that?
According to his comment history, the US.
Sounds about right
What country
Tupac cares if don't nobody else care
True and also because people today lack empathy for what the real horrors of war actually put people through. I do give a shit -but it's like tossing a turd into the ocean of hate and thinking it will somehow sparkle. I hate war and the horrible inhumanity of war, but when I say that people accuse of me being on a "high horse of moral superiority." If it's superior to dislike war - I'm all too happy to agree with them.
This is 100% how it works for most of the people here in America.
It's why they're rooting for another hundred billion of our tax dollars to be sent to other country's wars even though they're living with a 30-50% cost of living increase under Biden, who has no intention of sending us our own money in the form of aid.
Sorry to hear you did not get the option to become a vassal state and a US military base like so many others. It did give us a few good years at the cost of corrupting our societies and souls.
Big daddy if you're watching I'm only joking, I love you with all my heart and bow at your magnificence!
