First they funded, supported, and grew the terrorism, and THEN, they fought the terrorism. Then they funded other terrorists. But it’s always in countries with natural resources they want.
War on drugs - drugs won
War on terror - terror won
War on woke - 🤞
It’s never been about defeating those things, it’s about expanding power using them as an excuse.
Exactly.
- War on Drugs - reduce minority voice in government
- War on Terror - PATRIOT Act, or whatever its current incarnation is
- War on Woke - probably government access to medical records and/or privacy generally, but I guess we’ll see
War on Drugs - reduce minority voice in government

War on drugs - excuse to further oppress blacks and mexicans (successful)
War on terror - excuse to violently expand influence in the middle east (mission accomplished)
War on woke - 😟

Declaring war on a concept has never gone well for the states, has it? Drugs, terror, women, the list goes on.

Vietnam
Seems like it has worked pretty well:
- Vietnam/Korea/etc - most people hate communism
- War on Drugs - police get to arrest minorities, and felons don’t get to vote (suppress minority vote)

With the right perspective, they seem pretty successful to me, you just need to peek behind the curtain.
I’m holding out hope that we can still turn it around and defeat Santa Claus
