it's wild how the takeaway boomers have had from Kent State is that it's now their turn and they want to do it daily on every campus.
I understand that when Kent State happened there was a significant proportion of the country that approved.
A Gallup poll the following week revealed nearly 60 percent placed total blame on the students, while only 10 percent blamed the guardsmen (30 percent had no opinion). Means cites multiple uses of the phrase “They should have shot more of them [students]” and similar sentiments.
Kent State (and Jackson State) should have been the moment every American was radicalized. Instead a majority proved their loyalty to the Great Satan.
heard about kent state massacre as a kid, was in my 20s before i knew they did a second one at an HBCU ~11 days later.
Tulsa, Kent State, and Philadelphia are why I am as openly and intractably "unlimited genocide on the first world". These are not our allies, they will never be.
Smash cut to David Bowie and Trent Reznor's "I'm afraid of Americans".
Holy god, I now see why none of these assholes care about Palestinians - they think they should have just stayed in their place and accepted the harm that was happening to their people. What’s the word for that kind of mentality?
What’s the word for that kind of mentality?
Genocidal. Fascist. Reactionary. Chauvinist. Imperialist. Colonialist.
Any of the above will do
Evil. When I was a kid and blindly followed American conservatism, then liberalism, I was never able to fully buy into any of it because no matter what they say, I knew Americans - and the majority of westerners - saw me and my friends and family as subhuman to be exploited and killed. Every time I repeated some DOD talking point, there was a nagging voice in the back of my head that wanted to clarify that I didn't support any of the callous policies, but then I realized that it left me with nothing else to support because it's all callousness.
What’s the word for that kind of mentality?
Craven. Complacent. Insect-like.

Most Americans weren't against the war. Most support the soldiers regardless of how they view the war. The country is simply uninterested in caring about human suffering unless it's their baby boys in uniform, and only nominally because they can't even bothered to do anything to help imperialists when they come home.
Isn’t that how boomers are with everything? We had to go through it, you should be forced through it too! The ones complaining about student loan forgiveness and believing you should be able to raise a family on minimum wage.
