Before And After: The Iranian Nuclear Sites Targeted By US Airstrikes

It's a tough one. Even the people who voted for him are mainly guilty of being gullible. Noone is born maga. They get indoctrinated. The gullible believe it, the rest make up all the stories about family political arguments at holiday dinners...
wrote on last edited by [email protected]That’s fairly true of everyone and everything. We are born into a culture and it influences us greatly. I don’t think adults get any kind of a pass because of that. Certainly Americans of voting age have options about what to think and believe, regardless of where they start out.

That's basically victim blaming. You are implying they have a choice to be less gullible? And yeah, it is a large group, the size of it doesn't really matter. The powers that be are taking advantage of the masses for thier own purposes. And they know they are doing it.

Unless you think about it of course, then you realize in reality actually only one country and its client-state currently goes around bombing other countries it doesn't even border and slaughtering civilians while celebrating it as "national security", and that's the US (and Israel, literal Jewish ISIS).
Which country will take America's place when it falls? America is not the first and while history may not repeat, it often echoes and they won't be the last.

The administration running the country are terrorists who target people, domestic and foreign. Please don't blame the people.
This orange maniac and his entourage could only get this far because of a good portion of "the people".

Look to all the European fuckery that set up many of these conflicts in the Middle East and Africa.
The UK, France, Belgium, etc. all have extremely bloody pasts around the world.

The United states is a terrorist country.
America is the model the Nazis looked up to.

I was so surprised when California Protester Shootings happened and everybody acted surprised.
I had always just assumed that the US is a terrorist state and these things happen regularly. It surprised me a lot when people acted all shocked about it.

I've heard that before too but if you are going to try and convince anyone an actual source will help.

I’m saying they are adults and they have some responsibilities. I have lived in a place where thought options were actively suppressed, and I know how much freedom and information access Americans have. It’s true there is abuse and manipulation and lying out there. But no, I am not comfortable calling MAGAts victims and blaming someone else for how they vote. They are indeed getting fooled, but let’s be real: it’s a “fool me twice” situation in Trump’s second term.

As an outsider, I don't blame the people who voted for him the first time but the second time? Nope. People had a choice to be less gullible because there was evidence that he is not fit to lead: felony charges, nepotism, incompetence, derangement etc.
It's cognitive dissonance from the top down.

Bunker busters only have about 2300kg of payload, the rest of the weight is the penetrator body.
The bombs are rated at destroying a 20m radius.
There is some evidence that these penetrators can be guided away from targets by clever architecture. (A reinforced diamond cross-swcrioned concrete beam for instance can guide the penetrator away from its target)
Long story short we don't know if these did anything.
Here is the presentation that talks about it https://youtu.be/TriASB-F5UY

Nope. Please note: when an American writes 2.082 lb, he's not meaning 2 pounds and tidbits. He's meaning 2000 pounds. AFX and PBXN are not glitter, they're explosives.
Filling AFX-757/PBXN-114
Filling weight 4,590 / 752 lb (2,082 / 341 kg)

Yep I meant 2000kg apparently. Thanks for the correction

I live in the US. I blame 40% of the people at a minimum, and likely more than that.
60%. Non-voters don't get a pass.

And Trump is that way because he's an unintelligent nepobaby. We have to draw a line somewhere.

Trump is mostly a pawn really. The people pulling the strings is where the line should be drawn. They know what they are doing is wrong, but do it anyway.

That's not how gullible works. You don't have a choice. Evidence doesn't matter if you are convinced it is fake news. And yes, I have met people who really believed all of that was fake news.

But look at the data. Forvthe most part it is the red states he is hurting the most. They litterally are the victums. Doesn't stop me from hating them, but I know the blame doesn't really belong on them. The people who deserve the blame just want us to blame them.

... Yes it is.
And this.
Gullibility is a failure of social intelligence in which a person is easily tricked or manipulated into an ill-advised course of action
Don't forget that most of American media outlets aren't very conservative, compared to places like Australia and China, for example, where a majority if not all the media is owned and operated by a single entity.
Australia managed to shirk the rise of Dutton and the Liberal party, which is GOP-wannabe-lite, and we kicked them to the curb even though almost all of our media did a massive scaremongering campaign and was constantly doing puff pieces and character assassinations.
So, I'm saying that you all do have a choice and, additionally, you all desperately need access to proper mental healthcare because only truly sick and gullible people could vote for Trump again.

Russia: Am I joke to you?
I will say this for Russia: they restrict their indiscriminate bombing and terrorism mostly to countries they actually border. I don't know if that makes it any better, because it does mean they're occupying a big part of another country and abducting or massacring parts of their population with the explicit intent of genocide, but at least it's only regional instead of global.
