      A great example of this is their predator/reaper drones. The US has killed thousands of people with them but the second they tried flying over someone with intact air defences they lost dozens of the things. Absolute paper tiger only good for murdering those who can’t shoot back

      I remember when the story about the American revolution was “haha those stupid prideful redcoats just wanted us all to line up in a big field and shoot each other, but we just sniped and skirmished.” And now the US empire is the one getting mad that it’s enemies don’t want to line up all their stuff in a big field, and are instead cheaply taking advantage of this newfangled bullshit called “terrain.”

    them fighting back is really unfair. fortunately the US has fiercely independent journalists who are willing to call them out for it:

    Why won’t Iran follow our script like when after we restarted the 2002 millennium challenge.

    The US would have won this war if they could just kill defenseless people.

    Well if that ain’t an admission that every country should have a competent military and maybe (definitely) a nuke than I don’t know what is.

    The US does war horribly. It does undemocratic coups very well, better than anyone in history in fact.

    Some posts you don’t even need to look you can just tell that people who struggle with satire are going at it in the comments.
