Nope, this is what the world thinks of America.

It literally happened.

Lee Atwater, Republican party strategist, 1981:

> You start out in 1954 by saying, “N****r, n****r, n****r.” By 1968 you can’t say “n****r”—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract. Now, you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.… “We want to cut this,” is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than “N****r, n****r.”

He predates the war on terror though.

		Yep, the southern strategy. Make the lowest white man feel superior to the best minority. It's truly amazing how well it works.

"The US is an evil warmongering empire... wait why aren't they doing more to support Ukraine's war? They only sent 14x as much aid as France!"

		Are you racist? Or a bot yourself? I genuinely cannot tell.
