    It’s crazy how the perception of how the general population of the “3rd world”/Global South/non-West views America & Friends changes as you learn more, going from:

    1. They love us! Duh!
    2. They hate us. They’re jealous of our freedom!
    3. They hate us. And for good reason.
    4. Some of them hate us, for various reasons. But a lot have drank our kool-aid, too.

    Internalized racism is a hell of a thing. I guess that’s what some of the most expensive and sustained propaganda campaign in history will buy.
