        Are you american? We can yak about cause and effect all we want but the US has crossed the Rubicon. I’m tired of people pretending what’s happening now is not a distinct departure from the role the US previously enjoyed.

          It’s a very odd form of propaganda that I see constantly here.

          Yes, we know all about how bad Reagan was. We know the US has always been a little rotten.

          What’s happening now is new (for us at least) and needs to be treated that way.
