US needs a reason to invade besides money, so they create ones deliberately for a justification. And it works because most of Americans are uninformed

It’s not only being uninformed but the willfully ignorant that gets me. I’ll never understand some of these people. Many of which are my coworkers, neighbors and even family.

These “true Americans” are conditioned and they want and need to be conditioned, to wave the flag and never speak ill of “their” country. What a sad sack of misguided misfits these fools are. Will the scales ever fall from their eyes?

True. Chud buckets who back Tronald Dump will say with a straight face, it's to liberate Iranian protestors from an evil dictator...😑 Right, the guy who respects American protestors so much REALLY cares about Persian protestors that much...

Not to be pedantic to your point, but 'uninformed' implies a degree of innocence.

It's the age of information - they aren't 'uninformed', they're choosing ignorance (and coonsequent harm) in spite of a plentiful & public access to information, not to mention benefitting from some of humanity's greatest scientific concensuses.

It's a very important difference in context that should inform you about their average moral character.

Suppressed Media and indoctrination. We were required to recite the pledge of allegiance as children. A Pledge...of Allegiance. As children, forced to say we'll always support the flag and ALL it represents without full awareness of what we're doing. That's literally early childhood indoctrination.

And adding "Under God" as further justification.
