Speaking Truth To Empire: Is America Still Exceptional? – Veterans Today | Military Foreign Affairs Policy Journal for Clandestine Services
American Exceptionalism and American Innocence According to Robert Sirvent and Danny Haiphong, Americans have been exposed to fake news throughout our history—news that slavery is a thing of the past, that we don’t live on stolen land, that wars are fought to spread freedom and democracy, that a rising tide lifts all boats, that prisons keep us safe, and that the police serve and protect.
