Not sure what to make of this. TikTokers’ first anti-imperialist “theory” being from a far-right anticommunist religious zealot with valid criticisms but no real analysis and a bit of “Jews control everything” seems perfect for the mainstream media to weaponize. On the other hand, people are realizing America are the bad guys and terrorists don’t hate us for our freedom, and will hopefully learn more, far better stuff?

Tiktok took the videos down but I screenshot these two comments lmfao: joker-laden

Edit:

CNN article (the thing I linked in the post was a video)

FOX News, NBC, New York Times, Forbes, Washington Post, the Guardian, Wall Street Journal, CBS, Reuters, TIME Magazine, The Hill, etc. all reported on it in the past few hours. You got headlines like “Bin Laden’s Letter to US Stuns Young Americans: ‘He Was Right’”

    I know we’re all supposed to be cool and with it but fuck it I’d never heard of this letter either. Like I knew he’d talked about his motivations before and I knew they weren’t about freedom or whatever but I’d never once heard that this letter exists
