Our collective realities as a society were irrecoverably fractured a while back the cascading effects of which have caused deep cultural atomization and distrust of one another allowing a conman and likely foreign asset to highjack an already growing populist outrage at the state and status quo.

I could probably go on but that’s the gist in the broadest of strokes

I agree, just pointing out that they could if they wanted to

If China wanted to they could drown the saudis out

I have long skinny legs and even mine look like tree trunks compared to this dude

They have been effectively neutered from doing anything beyond humanitarian work for decades by the security council and vetos held by the conflicting
