        Did it really??? We had lots of these type of wars before. They’d just sell us something about women’s rights and that we’d be welcomed as liberators instead.

        I feel better about a country that feels the need to sell it’s people on wars under this premise, but it didn’t matter to the people getting bombed. I’m not an accelerationist, but it might even be better this way since the American people aren’t buying the rationales for this one.

          Can’t fight for the foreign rights of women while you disenfranchise your own women at home? I guess that would take logic to figure out so they can probably get away with it to their base, but the rest of the world sees right through you.

          There were women that got to grow up with rights in Afganistan. People worked and fought to make that because that was a justification (one of) for that war. Now we dont even have that. Just the bombs and naked greed
