so wait Afghanistan didnt fall because of.....

-massive corruption (https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2019/investigations/afghanistan-papers/afghanistan-war-corruption-government/)

-weak institutions

-war crimes by the Americans and afghani government. including bombing weddings. which led to a lack of legitimacy and them being seen as just as bad as the Taliban. (https://www.cnn.com/2019/09/23/asia/afghanistan-wedding-attack-intl/index.html)

-an unmotivated and weakly willed afghani army (except for their special forces who actually fought well at times) (https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/afghanistan-taliban-uk-war-troops-b1902270.html)

-the Taliban form political alliances pre withdrawal with large power brokers to ensure they didnt fight them

-Afghanis seeing little difference between the Taliban and US backed "democratic politicians". one notable example being the formed VP who looked over 1000 captured enemies in trucking containers in the heat to die. in other words often the people we backed were in some ways just as monstrous as the Taliban (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/22/world/asia/afghanistan-general-abdul-rashid-dostum-rape.html)

no its because there was a rainbow flag in Kabul? why cause Tucker Carlson said so?

oh look! even that rainbow flag line from conservatives on here was a lie https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-kabul-photoshop-idUSL1N2PO1FB

can you guys please give a coherent argument backed up by facts, rather than just attributing everything and just repeating culture war buzzwords?

I love though how George Bush and Cheney and the US army are now the bastions of progressive policy. This is why you arent being taken seriously.

no matter what the question is. No matter how unrelated. the answer is ALWAYS "the demonrats communist progressives!!!!the gays!! the LGBTQ agenda!!"
