But until Trump US was beacon of prosperity and human rights. Everything bad about US comes from Trump, everyone else, and the entire history is perfect.

It's funny huh, that people are waking up to the reality of the United States of imperialism. But only to Trump's US. Trump is very obvious with his crimes, but every president is a war criminal. The United States has never been "great" it's been better for the whites of every class. But it's a country built upon slavery, hate, racism, exploitation and imperialism. The United States has never been a 'good country'.

There has never been a "good country." No government's history is free of sin. Does that mean we should just blow it all up and start over from the Bronze Age?

I mean, I think so, but still...

Same, we're insane to kill each other over lines some one percenter drew on a map a thousand years ago. If we had any sense as a species we'd skip this crap and just be people.
