    You’d use your own head and assess for yourself what that tape means.

    it’s a coincidence the guy they decided on just happened to be the guy who ended up being Prime Minister for two terms, right?

    like i said in my original comment. it’s an interesting phenomenon. if you were to look in the past, it’s very easy to convince people the US acted covertly in many ways that were clearly imperialist. for example in Guatemala or Cuba or Iraq. It’s hard to find someone trying to defend US actions in these cases. But as it’s happening that goes out the window because propaganda has a powerful hold on emotion

    Let’s take a step back and let me ask you a question. Please answer instead of diverting or otherwise trying to deflect

    Question is: Do you believe money holds influence in US elections and do you think people with money actively try and influence elections?
