But the US is currently stealing wheat and oil from Syria. Britain has stolen billions in gold from Venezuela. The US regularly sponsors coups in countries from which it wants to take resources. Elon Musk has announced that we can make a coup in any country we want, because he wants the lithium.
It is very much possible to raid other people and take stuff. It happens constantly.
After the US pulled out of Afghanistan Biden stole billions of their money, and gave half of it to people affected by the 9-11 attacks -- even though the people of Afghanistan had nothing to do with 9-11. That's theft.
Quote: Trump was insane and trump seems to be losing his grip on the Republican Party and I hope he doesn’t ever regain that power because the result would be some sort of imbalance in a two party model democracy. That’s my point of view.
Trump was insane? He certainly made crazy Tweets. But Biden has continued almost all of his policies.
And let's remember that everything they said about Trump's connections with Russia, the "kompromat," the piss tape, the Russian interference that cost Hillary the election -- all of that was lies. They lied and blamed Russia as a way to control the media. That's been proven.

How do you know this?

So as I told you before: there is no “western” media. There is a lot of independent Russian speaking media outlets too. So don’t try to be “the smartest” try to be well informed about issues. That’s how I would do it
Corporate media in the anglophone world are obedient spokesmen for the US military/industrial complex. It cannot be trusted.
You are right that other countries have propagandistic media also. But China's propaganda ministry is no doubt jealous of the anglophone media, who parrot the government line with far less coercion involved. The government can lie again and again, and the obedient readers will believe them.
Tell the warmongers not to be the "smartest" please. In every war that comes along, the government lies to them, and they believe it every time.
