I hear you but this is an article from 35 years ago things have changed over here and over there since thenTo add to my post above, because I didn't want to make it too long, but a related anecdote to show the difference between show and actual quality of life differences is when Boris Yeltsin came to the US and visited a normal grocery story. He was fukking shocked how much available food there was to buy that he was convinced that the CIA created this store before he visited in an effort to convince him of the superiority of the United States. He thought seeing that much food in one spot is something only the elites ever see and this was some psyop operations. He genuinely couldn't believe that shyt.
The reason he thought the CIA created the store... was because that is shyt that the soviets would do.
When Boris Yeltsin went grocery shopping in Clear Lake

Look how amazed this fukker looks. You guys just have food, sitting out here like this just for the taking? Damn! Americans forget how much other people in the world are lacking things we just take for granted. We take for granted that we can take a shyt and send it off to some faraway place to be disposed of or we can go to the store and get any food we can think of on a moments notice. Meanwhile, if you die in Ukraine for Russia, your family would be lucky to get a sack of potatoes.
Bingo. Not to mention he lives in Canada benefitting off western resources despite being an armchair anti-west soldierI'm asking you what's the difference. In Syria, the folks whose families that Bashar Al Assad murdered probably see Al Qaeda as heroes. We learned that lesson in Afghanistan. Just because the west sees the Taliban as terrorists doesn't mean the people do. The majority of the people welcomed them in with open arms.
My issue with you is that you're an idiot. You think you're intelligent, you think you understand geopolitics, but you're too retarded to understand that the situation on the ground isn't based on ideology. It's based on reality. You don't even have a basic understanding of rudimentary geopolitical situations. The US and ANY government will fund whoever they need to fund if they see that as means to whatever end they are trying to accomplish in that region.
You're so rigid and you see things in black and white instead of the many shades of gray that exist all over the world. You want America to fail so badly that you ignore all of the atrocities committed by other nations. The US is only 250 years old. Who was committing the atrocities before the big bad US came into existence? We are one of the youngest nations on the planet. All these other nations have been here and they have been committing atrocities and war crimes for eons and eons, and you absolve them of their historical and present crimes, when you cannot point out one place on the planet where the people have the rights that Americans have.
You are insane and irrational.
Money... Most the people at Fox News say they just doing it for the check. Fox News paid him, he said what they wanted. Elon paying him, he gonna say what Elon wants. Any mystery why his name came up in the interview? And why all the questions lead to his points that he makes on Twitter every day?A lot of the stuff Tucker said was true, but the real question is why is he saying it now? It wasn't long ago, Tucker was a bowtie wearing Dixiecrat who was pro-war, pro-economic globalization, and pro-US colonialism. He never explained why he's made this major shift in politics. Dude grew up a trust fund baby. Just because a broken clock gives the correct time twice a day doesn't mean its a trust worthy source.
