I know things look really bad right now in terms of entering a communist hellscape, but let’s consider...
Everything they have done, the gaslighting, the riots, the lockdowns, etc. was to beat Trump. They fucked up the whole world to do it. This is because Trump was a rebellion trying to take back the country and make it serve the people.
However that also means they already owned it. The politicians were already corrupt. The media were already doing what they want. So why didn’t they go on a massive gaslighting spree to turn US communist before now? Surely in the 90s and 00s people would have just believed what CNN tells them even more than now. Maybe it’s because the US place in the world was intentional. It had more freedom and capitalism not because of the founding fathers but because the deep state specifically wanted a country to be the leader in those areas. Otherwise they could have turned it socialist since FDR days. What does more for the deep state, the US in a pre-2016 state or China? I think US. So why would they want 2 Chinas?
Now, the rebels will get squashed to make sure it never happens again. But the goal may be to drift to the middle.
Maybe it's set up for China to make shit and US to buy it.
