Gosh, don’t you miss the days when the Americans at least pretended to be the good guys? mastodon.social/@DrALJONES/113

@aral No I don't, since them "pretending" being the good guys is the reason why their cultural imperialism works so well. They have been the bad guys consistently for at least 40 years now, and now that some people start realizing that, maybe some things will change at a global level.

It's only after Palpatine revealed being Darth Sidious that the Rebel Alliance could be formed.

_(and even now, my cultural reference comes from the US)_

@aral It is almost like there is a concern about how a strong ICC might act towards a fascist president.

@aral Me believing the US were the good guys in any capacity had more to do with me being a child before Reagan was president.
