America: big on winning wars.

…Lost the war on terror to terror.

…Lost the war on drugs to drugs.

To be fair, America initially lost the war on terror, then switched sides, so they’re technically winning.

We were doing terrorism long before 9/11

I was going to write something sarcastic about transatlantic relations, but honestly we deserve some blame for the Puritans. The English Reformation and its consequences were fairly severe.

And Vietnam. And Iraq. And Afghanistan. And koreas. The US is just terrible at war tbh.
