The library didn’t even *have* the books they protested about.
But you showed up with guns and terrified a nice librarian lady enough to quit her job.
I get flashbacks to when the GOP loved Laura Bush because “But she is a sweet, shy pretty librarian, who wants to teach kids to read. No one can possibly dislike her.” Even most Democrats were generally fine with her.
I’m just gonna say it, while Russia’s invasion of Ukraine rightfully being condemned, is barbaric & beyond stupid, and left them with heavy sanctions- The US deserves that exact same treatment and should have been the most sanctioned country in the world after they invaded Iraq 20 years ago
1 million Iraqis dead- family, friends, children, and community gone, a whole region of the world destabilized, infrastructure destroyed, abuse of women and children, and extensive torture & torture networks and black sites that defy humanity. All from an *illegal* war, and it’s even worse when you look at all the other places we invaded- and the US received *zero* consequences for what it’s done.
It’s only fair, right?
I'm glad the ICC is putting out an arrest warrant for putin, I just wish they could also do the same for bush but he covered his ass just before the invasion of Iraq and made it law that if an American is ever held by The Hague then we have the "authority" to invade the Netherlands
What George W. Bush did to Iraq 20yrs ago is as much of a war crime as what Vladimir Putin is doing to Ukraine today. While not precisely the same, the similarities are glaring. Bush lied when he said he was seeking weapons of mass destruction and wanted to bring democracy to Iraq, and Putin is lying when he says he is liberating Russian speakers and wants to denazify Ukraine.
Both presidents are corrupt power hungry imperialistic occupiers who only wanted to secure land, resources and power.
Only the most zealous sycophants or the most aggressively willfully ignorant still believe Bush or Putin.
I was scrolling tiktok the other day, as I do when I want to turn my brain off for a bit, and the hands down most deranged thing came across my fyp. Words cannot describe but don't worry, I got screenshots
