The US has been flagrantly and unabashedly rolling back civil rights reforms and imposing fascist dragnets since the fucking Nixon Administration. That it’s taken the rest of the world this long to notice is more a sign of our deteriorating economic position than anything specific to the Trump administration.
Nobody was putting the US on a watchlist when we started snatching people and shoving them into Gitmo, over twenty years ago. Nobody seemed to care when we laid siege to the Ecuadorian Embassy in an attempt to illegally extradite Julian Assange or when we handed Israel a fresh batch of ordinance to assassinate Al-Jazeera journalists and Gaza City ambulance drivers. Hell, you can open the whole big ole Black Book of American War Crimes - from paying Contras to rape Nuns in Nicaragua to carpet bombing wedding parties in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen to propping up military juntas across The Philippines and Indonesia to hunt labor organizers for sport.
Like, fuck this country. But fuck all those NATO and NAFTA shills that went along with our decades of atrocity.
