Absolutely right. It also makes sense most people will care about something tangible like gas prices than the lives of other people half way across the world.

But this doesn't mean that half way across the world there isn't something truly urgent that needs dealing with.

I honestly don't know what will come of this war but I do know with a fair bit or certainty that a nuclear Iran would have caused the US far more damage than a few weeks of higher gas prices, and they wouldn't even need to use it.

But to truly and fully understand this people need to put a real effort and research the region.

Although the American troops are wildly disproportionately “white” because that is historically the pool of peasants the people with the pen draw on to sacrifice and murder for their wars, if you look at the forces and the US military in general, it’s the most diverse, multi-cultural, rainbow coalition in existence on this planet. You literally have people of every race, ethnicity, and nationality included in a rainbow of killing and they are proud of it; yet here we are being sarcastic about it being as simple as “whites” killing “browns”, not realizing that just demonstrates the pen’s lingering albeit still useful control over the mind.

Your point is well made though, the pen is indeed far more powerful when it can hide in plain sight the multi-cultural, rainbow coalition, diversity sword of the maniacal, narcissistic, psychopathic, child raping, Epstein class right in front of you.

The pen is indeed far mightier than the sword
