Is a born American with huge amounts of money and a platform. Instead of fighting for her country/values, she chooses to flee. I know it's the safe choice, but man, so many Americans are cowards when it comes down to it.
And do what? Yell at people on twitter? Make a “powerful” statement during an acceptance speech? This country is so fucked and anyone that thinks we’re coming back is delusional. We would need to imprison the vast majority of republicans in office. Even with that, it’s corporate money that runs this country and they would just get replaced and voted in by our idiot population. We are not where we are because of one administration, this is decades in the making. If I had the money and 7 children or however many she has that weren’t white, you can bet I’d be taking them somewhere they could grow up without the fear of being picked up by the Gestapo for being brown.
only fools would stay and be slaughtered bya fascist regime. intellectuals and rich people(that are not supporters) are often the first targets
Even SunTsu says that fleeing is the best option sometimes.
He describes a feint, an offensive retreat. I don't think Ang is pretending to leave just to make the USA follow her into a trap.
Gods the history would be funny if she does though
Sorry to burst your bubble guys, but Jolie is a way too old to matter to the Epstein class.
