“We will continue to actively engage in the hard work of direct diplomacy on the ground until we reach a Final Solution.”
Part of the US' PR strategy is to use a person of color when voting for genocide. Makes it seem like "see even minorities agree on this one".
I know there's merit to bash the US, but do you have any evidence whatsoever to make such a bold claim that this is official "US PR Strategy"?
It’s not like a whole US policy, just a common tactic.
Colin Powell claiming Iraq WMDs is a good direct comparison, Rompaswampy claiming Trump is legitimate, Candace Owens existing… grifters gonna grift.
I didn't say it was official, if anything I think it's somewhat unofficial by its very nature, no?!
It's not like I have a classified document where this sorta thing would be mentioned 😀
It's just an observation, and it's something I learned (didn't come up with it myself), probably from a video essay on Youtube or something like that - tried to remember specifically from where but I couldn't tell you. But it's been a pattern, with Colin Powell being used for the war in Iraq for example.
edit: I think /u/crusa187 offered a better reply with more examples
What a comically absurd statement to be upvoted.
Everyone knows Nikki Haley was appointed to the UN because of her foreign policy experience as governor of South Carolina.
It's a common strategy and it's not just US that does it. I would assert that it's mostly conservatives that do it (so pretty much all US politicians)
They have blood on their hands. Just as our politicians in Europe do.
