Yeah, there is just about zero moral nuance in Frank as a person. And not much more in the show at large. They tried, making it all secretly about executing prisoners in Afganistan (you know, WAR CRIMES, funny how that phrase doesn't come up), and blessedly portraid as bad. That wasn't a given.
But Americans always stop short of actually condemning their legal terrorists. I don't know if they're too cowardly to say the quiet part out loud, or too high on life-long propaganda (who TF makes children recite loyalty poems every morning and thinks that's NORMAL?!) but it doesn't happen. And here too, everything that's Bad is actually the fault of one guy, and, you know, he's dead now, so it's all good. It's just like slavery and racism are unamerican.
Have you read "The Shock Doctrine"? I think everybody should. It's terrifying.
Eh, politics. United States. Regime change, have I mentioned regime change operations? I think my head is spinning. Hello Darkness my old friend...
