I Want To Write My Random Thoughts And Feelings

During the invasion of Iraq, war criminals Bush, Condi Rice and the war hawks went on record blabbering about "planting seeds of democracy in Middle East". How cute. Apparently rampant voter suppression, gerrymandering, two party farce in America are the epitome of democracy. They were too focused on bringing democracy to Middle East till they forgot about their own backyard it seems.

Yep...same as it ever was. One of my uncles served in both the European and Pacific Theaters during WWII. The U.S. was using racially segregated troops to overthrow the Nazis and bring democracy back to the AXIS countries...

@bijouxbroussard Imagine all the Black men sacrificing their limbs and minds for a country that treats them as subhumans. There's a letter from a White US soldier addressed to his superior where he complained about having to take shower with "negroes". Sadly such things are not taught in American schools. Instead they're brainwashed America is ALWAYS a force for good.

@ChocolateBhavaa Another thing that is not taught about is how several black soldiers who made it back home were lynched by whites who didn't or couldn't serve, out of resentment.

@bijouxbroussard That's heartbreaking. For a country that constantly thumps chest about military might and claims to revere soldiers, this is vomit inducing
