I’m assuming this is a critique on the media stoking fears in midwestern Americans. Like, if you don’t support the genocide, Hamas is going to destroy the things you love.

This is accurate... I've been told by several different sets of parents in the last two weeks that "the terrorists are already here"

Bitch you live.in rural ass middle America... Some cat from some other country isn't going to come here.just to blow up your tj max.

Now the guy at church that beats his wife... He might open fire next Sunday. But that's not terrorism right?

Ffs.

Tail as old as time. I remember living in Iowa through several of the last "threats". Midwesterners stocked up thinking they were going to be the first in the nation. Yes Fred, I'm sure the order is going to go New York, LA, Lake Okiboji in Iowa, Chicago.

Keep them afraid, keeps them obedient.

Yes, the terrorists are going to attack Arnolds Park, because they hate our freedoms and our crooked house!
