That’s mostly true.
But that brings up an interesting question: Why do those FReepers gravitate to some other country’s thuggish leader? I suggest to you that it isn’t because they oppose thuggery; it is because the thuggish leader in their own country is not THEIR thuggish leader. They like the other guy’s thuggish leader.

It baffles me, a number of them have turned against America and the West and are now hoping for our defeat by the powers hostile to us.
They see Putin and sometimes Xi as the strong men who can bring order to the chaos they feel they are enduring in the white world.
Maybe it also has to do with the fact we are funding another war in perhaps the most corrupt country in the world. Maybe it’s because we may in fact be the most corrupt country funding a war in another country to enrich our government and MIC.
