When taken in moderation
I’m not exactly sure what this advert is for…Is anyone really going to suddenly think ‘gee wizz, now I know all that I’m going to support America regardless of any disagreements I have with specific policy’?
This is exactly the same absurd with-us-or-against-us crap that causes so much of the problem in the first place. It isn’t a choice between an America which has a set list of pros and cons and no America, it’s a choice between any number of different versions of America, some of which help create a climate of anti-americanism and some that don’t. This ad just shows a complete mis-understanding of the issues and creates a message that really means nothing to anyone.
