Point noted; it’s always been that way & we never should’ve been trying to force people to be like us. Also what does lake us mean? We’re not even a Jeffersonian democracy, we’re not a democracy and the path we are on leads us to a cultish authoritarian oligarchy.
It’s like being told in Sunday school as a kid that I’m going to hell bc I worship idols or being told by a Jehovah’s Witness that God is a jealous God & is jealous that I believe in Hinduism. We’re not a democracy simply bc we call ourselves 1 to justify attacking others
Also the last 20 yr shouldn’t be abt what we’ve learned even if we had learned something. The last 20 years or about what we put the people of Afghanistan through using our government as a slush fund for the MIC to the DETRIMENT of people all over the world
While I agree w President Biden’s decision to pull out, he shouldnt have done so keeping w TFGs terrorist terms. We need more information abt why it went down the way it did and what we are going to do to make reparations to the Afghani people (yes adding to the list)

Hey I gave my daughter an Oreo that her asking with her milk and the look on her face sadly I can’t remember it because overwhelmed with the sweet emotion that elicited
Full disclosure about 10 minutes before that after 30 minutes of drying pumpkins with a sharpie and crying every time we didn’t turn out the way she wanted and refusing to do it with a pencil I about lost my shit and said I’m going for a walk and went for a walk and two minutes
after I got out I heard her calling my name she was scared bc It’s dark & it was just me. Then she went to my wife and said to get our sleeping five-month-old and come find me
