Conservatives going from skeptics of the state to full "I only trust what the government tells me, thinking for yourself is bad," is so funny man. They really do not believe in anything. Trump says War Bad; they say War Bad. Trump says War Good; they say War Good. That's it. There are no actual ideas or principles anymore on the right. All the sound and noise are just window dressing.

“… Iran will observe 40 days of mourning and seven days of holiday time to honor Khamenei, who Iranian state media now confirms was killed in the U.S. attack.

The public mourning and holidays are to follow the government's official declaration of martyrdom for the ayatollah, the semi-official Iranian state media outlet Nour News said on Telegram….”

What I'm talking about are all of the Trumpers who, when Maduro was captured, came here and took to social media to brag and gloat about what a popular move it was among Venezuelans, and to attack liberals as anti-American Trump haters who wouldn't understand what a brilliant move it was by Trump. No doubt it was popular among most Venezuelans at that moment, but as events showed all the Venezuelans got was pretty much the same government in place and efforts here in the US to deport and drive out the Venezuelans who had moved here to get away from Maduro, but who in many cases had no intention of returning home after having a built a new life here.

I happen to work with a Venezuelan immigrant who is here with his wife and kids on a work visa. He's a great guy, hates Maduro, loves the US, and even admitted to me that he liked Trump in 2024 after all of his tough talk on Maduro. But now he's worried that when his visa expires he and his family will be forced to leave the country, and certainly his views on Trump have changed (I know he's a FAFO case, but he is a nice man and a great family man from what I can see). His brother and sister-in-law were working in the US as teachers and have been forced to leave on short notice, they're moving to Spain if I remember correctly. The bottom line is that seeing Iranians celebrating in the streets is hardly reason for Trumpers to gloat, given what happened in Venezuela. Unless the government actually changes there those celebrations may be short lived.

I agree, but that too is a facade. Trumpers may claim, on social media, that they care about the people of Venezuela and Iran, but this is rally just pure power fantasy for them. They want the United States to be feared, rather than loved, across the world.

They love the chaos that destruction causes, seeing people struggle elsewhere, because it makes them feel that, even though they don’t have order over their own lives, they have more order than others. It is what gives their existence purpose. Power. Control. The ability to destroy on a whim. To feel like a God among mortals. That is the goal. The darker side of the American Dream. Not a City Upon A hill, but a kingdom above a valley.

Yes, there are former Trump voters who, like your friend, were fleeced. But for most Trumpers, the joy in seeing Iranians dance is entertainment, puppets on a string. Noble savages, yes, but savages nonetheless. That is how they view the non-western world, except maybe for those who fetishized Japan, believing that its isolation should be emulated, not understanding that it is a country experiencing a slow bleed.

But Biden! But Biden! But Biden!

I don’t give a fuck about Biden, you simpleton. I give a fuck that nobody in my fucking generation can afford to own homes or have children or go to the doctor because we would rather drop $10 million bombs from $30 million planes launched by $13 billion aircraft carriers on camels in the goddamn desert on the other side of the planet while limpdick Fox News guzzling boomers like you jerk off to it.
