Remember after 9/11 how Americans rallied behind Bush and allowed him to strip away our liberties and create the largest State surveillance apparatus in the history of the world?
That's what happens when we bomb other countries too. You cannot bomb people free.
Remember, the anti-war protests over Iraq accomplished nothing. This is because the ruling class is only afraid of two things from protests:

"Leave politics out of sports" they said, as a military jet flew over the stadium, and the American flag was unfurled on the field in a salute to our military bravely killing people overseas.

The "marketplace of ideas" is a great name because a tiny number of people monopolize the national conversation with the stupidest shit imaginable, while our real intellectual needs get ignored because it doesn't generate profit for the people who own the media.
Nietzsche described the "last man" as the most contemptible of all people, who live only for pleasure, who believe technology can invent happiness, while hiding their bitter resentment that they've become incapable of any act of self-creation.
Today we'd just call them "gamers".
