    Post WWII and even prior, it seemed to work out pretty well for them. Is it really falling for propaganda if you get to hollow out the earth and global south for your benefit?

    There is the old aphorism.about stupidity sufficing as an explanation but the truth is far worse, evil. It’s evil.

      Do you mean Hanlon’s razor? Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

      “Kool aid” means something along the lines of “lies”. People usually say “drinking the kool aid” which means something along the lines of believing their lies.

        Lies doesn’t quite capture it. Are you unaware of the origin of the phrase, or are you just trying to over simplify it?

      it’s got its origin (popularity) from jonestown https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_the_Kool-Aid?wprov=sfla1

        I’ve not researched this piece extensively, but I am remembering now this piece on Jonestown: http://jonestown.sdsu.edu/?page_id=78282#p8

        The narrative associated with Jonestown of people being misguided in their thinking and so “drinking the Kool-Aid” may have been a major distortion. It’s been some time since I read through the article in full. I’ll try to see about re-reading it later, so I’m more clear on that point.

        edit: wording
