Realizing these past 2 1/2 years that I’ve grown up and lived my entire life in such an evil empire has been the biggest mind fuck of my life. Yes, I realize I’m late to the game… but I’m here now, and for me the veil has been completely lifted.

Gaza lifted it. The Epstein files kept it up off my face. And now the Iran war has blown the veil completely off my head.

I couldn’t agree with you more, Miranda. If I were Iran, I wouldn’t negotiate anything with the U.S. — not yet, at least. I still do feel a bit conflicted saying this, because it would hurt me, and my kids, personally — which is part of the mind fuck — but the fact is, the U.S. hasn’t been brought to its knees. And that has to happen before Iran should come to the table to entertain any sort of talks.

This country has been overtaken by Zionists. The government. The media. The newsrooms. The universities. It’s insidious.

I know now, growing up I was brainwashed — propagandized no different than a North Korean is — to believe my country is the good, noble country that stands for freedom, democracy and equality for all. I know now it was all lies. I’m actually writing a piece on that now — my awakening to that.

This is a great article, important for everyone to read. We are not the good guys, and you articulate that unfortunate fact very well.

If the US is showing up to the negotiating table with Israeli assets wearing American flags on their lapels, then the option of trust was never there to begin with. For Iran this could be more about exposing that reality, further humiliating the US narrative, and keeping diplomatic options open with clear boundaries set from a position of strength.
