These people are all sociopaths, so they have no idea how to behave and speak normally. They think they know what to say so that we'll never guess how weird they really are, but they're STUPID, too, so they really don't understand, and end up saying all sorts of inappropriate nonsense.

Oh, you got stiffed by the psychopaths? Didn't see that coming.
If my boss punched me a single time, he'd get a response from me. Several responses, before I threw my apron in his bloody face, and quit.
No, as long as legal bribery is allowed, they will be able to fend off any attempts at reform. You have to remove their ammunition first. Then they can't stop FPTP, Health Care, whatever.
2 Things:
-
They left a mirror at at least some of the landing sites, and we can bounce a laser off that mirror back to Earth. Proof that we were there.
-
They have sent probes up to circle the moon, and those probes photographed the sites. You can see lunar landers, abandoned gear, footprints, and the tracks from lunar rovers.
The Catholic Church has been molesting altar boys for centuries, filtering for those that will fit in, and become priests, and be "recruiters" for the next generation. It's their best recruitment and indoctrination strategy, which attracts a LOT more potential priests than the celibacy pitch.
Campaign Finance Reform is the issue from which ALL other issues flow.
An attack on US soil, historically, has prompted the American people to line up behind the American president
Not this time. 9/11 was different, and while the president wasn't fully trusted after his coup, he wasn't considered to be a Traitor and Pedophile, and more. People were willing to give the Republicans the benefit of the doubt. But then we found out they lied about EVERYTHING, and were wildly incompetent on top of it.
America is far more fractured now than it was then. If Iran commits a major terrorist attack on American soil, most Americans will blame Trump for inviting it.
Somehow, my son grew up without being interested in videogames or social media. He's now a world class expert in film, but he has a hard time relating to others his age, who think quality is Anime or Marvel movies. He's gone back to college for another degree, so he's a few years older than the rest, and he's astonished at how unprepared they all are for college, life, or anything else.
Covid really blew a hole in the education of our country, and it hasn't come back.
I honestly don't know what I did differently with him than any other parent. My philosophy has always been "Love what your children love, and you children will love you." He was always into theater, movies, music, entertainment, so we leaned into that stuff. He just never showed any interest in Social Media or Videogames, and we never encouraged it, so he never got into that stuff.
Guerilla Warfare is highly effective against big forces like the US Military. We've had our asses kicked by Guerillas on a number of occasions, and so have others.
It's because our wars are really about Military Profiteering, not winning. We actually want to keep it going as long as possible. War is good for the economy.
