You are one dense person. You're literally asking me to understand what I said to you.
What part of anything I said to you implies I'm not taking it seriously? That I don't understand the dangerous path we're on?
You're saying it's an American problem, so we should fix it ourselves. I'm saying that we quite likely don't have the ability to hurt the people in power meaningfully before they escalate things further.
Saying you should stop giving us money because it's one of the only things that might hurt them or get people desperate enough to depose them before they start a war with Canada or Denmark isn't failing to take it seriously or not understand it.
I'm truly confused how you're ending up in that place.
Are you just using me as a punching bag because you're mad at Americans as a whole?
