    Years of huffing authoritarian propaganda has left you crippled with paranoid delusions.

    I hope you get some help.

      LOL. Friendo, I grew up completely surrounded by USA and Euro-centric propaganda. Every single textbook, novel, TV show, movie, children’s activity, museum, friend, family member, every social ritua, social event, public forum, every radio station, every company, every ad, all of it was the most comprehensive and totalizing propaganda humanity has ever seen.

      By proportion, I have gotten so little information from non-USian, non-Eurocentric sources, and that very very small amount is more than enough to dismantle the North Atlantic lie.

      You think I have paranoid delusions but you’re the one who thinks I am subject to “authoritarian” propaganda while the US imprisons more of its people than any other country, generates billions of profit from their slave labor, charges them hundreds of dollars a day to be in prison, charges them extortion prices for basic services like a phone call, then puts them on total surveillance parole while they pay that debt off. You think somehow America is fighting against “authoritarians” while dropping more bombs on North Korea than all bombs from all countries combined in WW2 and North Korea isn’t even the most bombed country in the world - Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia were all bombed by the USA to levels that boggle the mind. But it’s authoritarian propaganda to talk about the actual espionage the USA commits on the regular.

      Is the School of the Americas also a paranoid delusion? Is the US support for coups against democratically elected leaders also a paranoid delusion? How about CIA black sites where the CIA violates the Geneva Convention but does it on the territory of another country with their permission creating a legal gray zone that allows the US to avoid consequences?
