You may be right, I only know the overall timeline on Vietnam. I think the huge anti-war movement showed what Americans thought. Only 'popular' wars were WW II after Pearl Harbour and Afghanistan after 9/11. Presidents would not manipulate Americans if they were willing to go to war.
Yes, Patriot Act was due to 9/11, not Afghan War. I was wrong. I knew better. I don't know why I wrote that. CIA funded Bin Laden and Taliban extremists with Billions in weapons for proxy war with Russians. 9/11 could not have happened otherwise. Seeing as we are now funding another group of extremists with Billions in weapons to fight a proxy war with Russians, it feels like planned self destruction.
No. Social media censorship came in waves. There was none before Trump's win in 2016. 2020 the first big wave, Hunter Biden Laptop, Trump deplatformed, Election fraud. 2021 second big wave with Covid/Vax. 2022 Russia was deplatformed by Youtube, Fbook, Visa, Mastercard, Google, Apple etc. I shouldn't say Biden is behind censorship. He is a part of the larger agenda.
Obama bombed two American citizens without trial. Constitutional rights disappeared with the War on Terror

Not in my experience... it was just less blatant.
Or some of them, anyway.
Interesting.

Really ? I thought that before 2016, you could post whatever lies you wanted and no one checked. I first heard 'Fact checking' during the 3rd Obama Romney debate in 2012, and online fact checkers by 2016 election. Fbook and others didn't rely on 'fact checking' before that.
