The US is the biggest terrist organisation in history. Responsible for so many deaths, it's simply incomprehensible. Even nastier now that it is USrael.

I know a lot of upper-class (mostly old money) Filipinos in the Philippines. Nearly all are liberals, and they're like petulant toddlers, sharing a hive mind, with respect to how they see the world. They're so easily controlled, and are cheering for the "Ukrainization" of their country, even after I can get them to admit that this is what's happening. Their hatred of China is beyond belief. They can be proven flatly wrong, but instead of softening their views, they just run away, regroup, and reset. The only hope for the Philippines is with the lower classes. They mostly know who is the real problem, definitely not China. They want to be friends with China.

You were right two years ago and you're right now. And you have the ability to say it very easy and understandable. Congratulations.
