Funny how few people know about this. I've literally never heard about it outside of leftist circles. By which I mean YouTube channels cuz im a real researcher.


The sad part about all this covid conspiracy theory and stuff is that there are real government conspiracies. They just tend to be for really boring ends that serve the will of the capitalists conservative ruling class

Lol, just yesterday, I stumbled over the following old meme and wondered who the guy in the corner left was:

and when people bring up the drug war and how it's racist, people who aren't aware play the "leftists will call anything racist". like no, nefarious agents flooded black neighborhoods with drugs to both get funding to fight cartels they couldnt even dream of beating and also because they knew it could be blamed on supposed social failings of the urban community.

drop a trunk full of kilos in suburban white ass places and you'll end up with a drug epidemic too, but they'll actually bother to figure out who caused it.

Don't tell bogie because he will insist its not real with the same fervor he used to say America never interfered with Iran's government.

im sure he double tapped his own gourd with a bump stock that trump banned but also that doesnt equal gun control and if it does its the libs fault.

That doesnt explain the rape.

they don't care if we remember these people or not for what they did, because they know we can't do anything and won't do anything about it

I mean... often times, the assertion is that the feds started the crack epidemic with an explicit intention of hurting and keeping down the black community, and I dont believe that.

But yeah, thinking "people won't start asking questions when crime rates in the ghetto surge because savage behavior is what they expect from the negroes", that's racist as fuck (... and probably a correct assessment of white america's mentality during the 80s-90s).

at some point negligence and a lack of empathy is as bad or even worse than actual malicious actions.

the US army dropped napalm in Nam on areas they knew Hmong scouts, working with the CIA under the promise of post-war extraction, were identifying targets for them to bomb. that's just as bad as wanting to exterminate Hmong people, or i'd argue even worse. wanting to firebomb Vietnamese targets is an act of war, wiping out your own allies is evil.

in this case scapegoating the black community because of societal racism is just as bad as maliciously trying to keep the black man down, imo.

Lol.



Talk about being inside someone's head. You might want to start a fan club.

The United States has played a pivotal in Iranian history post-WWII, but this...



...is profoundly incorrect. Shia fundamentalism has its roots as far back as the 19th century as a major political force. Mosaddegh came to power with the support of the Islamic hardliners, whom he promptly disappointed by supporting a secular Iran. His support among the clerics eroded , and was a major contributing factor in the collapse of his government. He perhaps could have withstood the anger of Great Britain and the subsequent CIA-funded coup, but he simultaneously angered both the Shah, whom he wished to consign to irrelevance, and the fundamentalist clerics, whom commanded immense support among rural Iran.

Nor is the United States even the main villain of this story. The United States was loathe to support Britain's financial interests, openly pressured the British to compromise, and only initiated a coup after they became concerned about the prospect of a communist takeover in Iran. Given how the Saur revolution in Afghanistan later played out, it wasn't an unreasonable concern.
