This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Wouldn't it be evidence of literally the opposite? USAID shuts down, people die because of it. Therefore, USAID programs were working.
I was reading that one as sarcastic, despite lack of /s And USAID is a decent counterpoint. The US HAS done good things! We've also done a HUGE amount of horrible ones and atrocities. Also we've got a habit of ALMOST eradicating some of the worst diseases of all time from the face of the planet and then going "ehhhh, it's the third world's problem now" so they can come back some years later despite having done 95% of the work.
In the same way that billionaires can do good things, the US can do good things and still be bad. We are absolutely capable of being good. This is a choice.
