The US gov has not been representative of its people for a very long time, at least since they blew off JFKs head. USA has been a proxy for European Royals since the creation of the CIA.

“For we are opposed by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy around the world, based mainly on covert means to expand its sphere of influence - infiltration instead of invasion, undermining instead of elections, intimidation instead of free choice, guerrilla warfare at night instead of armies by day.”

JFK was referring to Delta6 here, a covert paramilitary arm working for the crown of England. It has completely infiltrated and subverted American intelligence services. Royals (and dual citizen Israelis) have been directing American domestic and foreign policy at a granular level for decades. So are the American people responsible for the atrocities that their usurped government has committed in their name? They are no more responsible than the Chinese citizens who live under the tyranny of the CCP. Removing the old guard and its mechanisms of control was never going to a be a bloodless fight.
