"Again, if this is a foreign adversary"
What makes you so sure people from other places are that much more likely to want to hurt you than people from this very country?
I don't think you are actually paying attention if you think that, what is far more likely is rightwing violence will hurt you here and the "foreign adversaries" who are rich and conservative who you are so afraid of will look on and say "hmm I like that, we are going to have to try that in this country!" and they will call up the very people you seem to think will protect you from those people and talk shop about how to best subjugate, oppress and erase you, me and every other unwanted person.
Your understanding of the world has things totally locked into a nationalistic framing which is useless in this moment for understanding how violence is actually likely to reach out and touch you.
Uh huh..
Because I literally met and interacted with the people you're saying are trying to erase me lol. And originally your first comment is just a stray shot out of your ass.
Roll my God damn mother flipping eyes bro
no more than this story about mysterious scary drones flying around is a stray shot out of the ass of some conspiracy theorist hacks
