Remembering this ancient americans clapping video right now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy_MtgvoL5w
That channel is really fucked up and for sure /pol/ and 4chan adjacent.
I think you're right and I replaced the link with another copy I found from another random channel. As for why I posted it, I think it really provides a nice snapshot into just regular dopey American minds. The Tucker bit about America being the only nation to have the right to preemptively strike another country, Newt Gingrich going up on stage and just saying kill anyone we don't like... it's all so surreal. People just said that. It was common. It was acceptable. Going against it was suspicious.
Even the Ron Paul bit at the end. Lord knows the man is absolutely vile, but I still remember watching that debate when he got booed at simply suggesting that we shouldn't just fucking bomb the rest of the world.
