Why do we have to pin a country on this action? Sure, now, it would be easy for Iran to do something. It would be just as easy for some group of people, like those who tried to kidnap Gretchen Widmar, or Vance Boelter wannabes.
Trump, Pam Bondi, and Tom Homan have unleashed chaos. Plus SCOTUS.
Because a certain demographic of the US doesn’t give a shit unless something personally affects them. Homegrown terrorism doesn’t affect them because obviously they won’t be the targets. Iranian terrorism is scary to them.
It’s a big country, the USA. I have a hard time sometimes remembering we have 340 million human running around. It’s easy to believe things don’t affect us. But, it’s like I tell people, when one human in Indiana loses their First Amendment right, we all do. We may not immediately feel it but the precedent has been set.
I’m specifically talking about Republicans. You could show any amount of atrocities to them and they’ll hand wave it until it personally affects them. Head over to leapordsatemyface for some good examples of people yelling “I didn’t vote for this!” when it’s literally exactly what they voted for.
We keep pinning shit on other countries. My parents used to say “there are starving children in Africa” as if there weren’t any homeless children in our neighborhood.
True. I remember riding the bus thinking some of my friends were probably starving. 99.99% of us are closer to being starving and homeless than we are to Jeff Bezos. We don’t vote like, though.
