Even a quick gloss over the history of relations between the USA and Latin/America/Middle East/South East Asia will inform anyone of what sort of horrors that country has been unleashing on the world for MANY decades.

We hated you before Trump because you killed us, tortured us, and supported strongmen who did the same to us. What you are doing now is what you’ve always been doing, and what you will continue to do if given the chance. You will not stop until either the planet or all of us are dead.

No, of course not all US citizens are to blame for Trump and his fascism, but the millions who were stomped under your boots all over the world and continue to suffer are innocent as well, and what was ever done for all those victims?

Countless military dictatorships put in power with US support, peasants murdered to make way for gold mines and banana plantations, weddings cowardly drone bombed from above, torture carried out in Abu Gharaib. The terrorism has been relentless and never ending.

Your corporations and your soldiers taught us all we ever wanted to know about your country. Do us all a favor and stay within your own borders. I hope you kill your internal fascism, I really do, but what I’m more concerned about is the external fascism the rest of the world has suffered at your hands.

I have many good friends in the USA, but we all just can’t deal with that country, what it is now, and what it’s ALWAYS been. I’ve seen the destruction it has wrought with my own eyes. ICE is horrendous, but have you seen an entire town flattened by US munitions along with its civilians?

As Derick Jensen wrote about the police, why do we hate the police? Because they hated us first.

That sums up my thoughts about the relationship between the USA and the rest of the world.
