Those who left and those who could not flee speak of a country in ruins and decry the world’s apathy towards the humanitarian crisis and the lack of rights, mainly for women, which a UN report describes as ‘gender apartheid’
Even if the US intentions were good (and they were not great, basically being revenge for 9/11), who wants to be ruled by a foreign invader?
If some alien superpower invaded the USA tomorrow, gave them free healthcare, 40 days holiday a year from work, legalised abortion again and mountains of affordable housing in the places people actually wanted to live, they’d still fight back. Even if it meant things going back to how they were before.

I would not fight that. I already think that we are ruled by outsiders (rich, geriatric boomers).
Most boomers are just who the oligarchs have pointed angry millennials at.
They’ll watch you fight for crumbs while they scoff cake. This is Bumfights for them.
I would take that deal. All hail our Alien overlords. Now, the south would not be pleased … but they have a losing record in armed conflict.
Bold of you to think people would fight back against that lol.
That actually sounds incredible
People won’t fight back against anything because they are morally opposed to fighting back, regardless of what’s actually happening.
Just like Afghans, many liked the US, the taliban didn’t. There’d be a percentage of the population fighting tooth and nail.
