There's a current one happening in Gaza, aided and abetted by the USA. Then we have Ukraine, their whole nightmare from the coup until now has US fingerprints all over it. The original 9/11 in Chile was done with US help.

I can say good list and also others are like the Chinese Exclusion Act and as some others the WWII Japanese Internment Camps are 2 examples any others well really look into history.

@@OmniSlayer- that’s great for you. But it’s hard for me to have that level of patriotism considering the this country history(that spills over into modern day) of the treatment for people like me
It really is and also the reason and start of this is a false accusation of African Americans or as they called them Blacks or the N word at the time raping White Women is what I hear caused it also White was OK as it said in that time.
@@kellychuang8373 In 1932 a totally innocent black man was falsely convicted of murdering my father's sister in Logan, West Virginia. The whole town's white population knew he was innocent; he was a respected and much praised man. They just needed a black person to frame, so they could protect this woman's family reputation. She was accidently killed during an argument with her husband (the town's police chief) that turned into a shoving match -- at a party in front of all of Logan's elite. (BTW, I just discovered about 15 years ago that the woman even existed; my father was born 25 years after she was, and was only 7 when she was killed. He didn't know about this until the 1980s.) The innocent man, Clarence Stephenson, was railroaded into prison, where he died of cancer 10 years later. That's the kind of reality that state and local governments also want us to forget.
The Black Panther weren’t just feeding kids. At first they were but they started feeding anyone who was hungry. Kids, adults, whites Asians, blacks etc. it was a great program that really helped the community. However you feel about the BP, that was pretty great of them to do.
Yeah Pablo Escobar free housing for his local people and donated tons of money and resources, hells angels did plenty of food and toy drives for the poor lol
@HVS-gk7oo those two groups are not the same. The government feared the Panther Party because it used the Constitution and turned it against them like it did to all minorities in this country. You see that in the government treated Asians, Hawaiians, Irish, Italians, Native Americans, Black People, etc. Wake up please.
@@deyoungyoung3059I studied it in 8th grade, and the backstory behind the national anthem is interesting. American soldier Francis Scott Key, a prisoner in the waning hours of the war, watched the battle at Fort McHenry through the night. As long as the American flag flew, we stood a chance at victory. Sure enough, the flag continued to fly over what remained of the fort when dawn broke and the British surrendered. Inspired by this sight, Key penned a poem set to a British drinking song. “Defense at Fort McHenry,” as he called the poem, became “The Star-Spangled Banner,” our national anthem, in 1931.
I'm amazed nobody here has mentioned the Coal Wars yet. These were a series of labor conflicts in Appalachia between the 1890s and 1930s in which coal miners and unions violently clashed with their managers and with government and mercenary forces sent to put them down. The apex of these conflicts was the Battle of Blair Mountain in 1921, in which 10,000 armed coal miners engaged in a whole week of intense shootouts with 30,000 policemen, private detectives and National Guard troops. This remains the largest civil conflict that has ever broken out in the USA since the Civil War.
Honestly one of the most interesting parts of our history. And, yeah, for most Americans it might as well not have even happened. I started off reading Storming Heaven for a book report and got fascinated.

Well, how about the fact that JFK *initiated* the Cuban Missile Crisis (by basing missiles in Turkey against the advice of his top military advisors), and mulled over Operation Northwoods before ultimately rejecting it, or the fact that he basically sabotaged the Bay of Pigs invasion by holding back some of the air support because his ambassador to the United Nations, Adlai Stevenson, felt that denying some of the reports on the operation was undermining his credibility. You'd be amazed at how many little details never make it to the history books.
Those might be the key reasons why Lee Harvey Oswald did the deed back at 1963. Those uneven decisions could've been really catastrophic when he's still in power
As a retired federal civil servant who worked for 24 years for the government -- while maintaining my outspoken ways in criticizing right wing abuses -- I can tell you there is not always an outright contradiction between federal employment and progressive activism. Working for GM, oil companies, ITT, Dole, among many other employers would involve more direct support for abuses carried out by the CIA and the FBI.
@@captainwin6333 Taxes, ideally, are simply pooled money jointly spent on things that benefit all. The problem is not taxes, but the lack of control of the governing process. The corporations stole true democracy away, shutting us out of the free flow of information to which we are entitled. We can't control how our taxes are spent.
@brianarbenz1329 and people wonder why conservatives want to get rid of most federal agencies. It's because unelected bureaucrats aren't objective, and outright hate anyone that doesn't agree with them.

@@OmniSlayer- None of the things talked about here are personally your fault. For me, the purpose of the video is NOT to badmouth America. The idea here is for everyone watching to know that America needs to bring these things to light so that we can change things in our social and political system that “caused” them to happen. An IMPOSSIBLE feat if they are never taught or talked about.
How about the hanging of 38 Native Americans of the Dakota tribe in Mankato, MN in 1862. Lincoln reviewed and went ahead with the hangings. That one gets swept under the rug all the time.

@OmniSlayer- well yes look at the boarding schools. My point is that day in history the government to this day wipes under the rug and says it didn't happen. Walz said they choose to act like it didn't happen cause Lincoln is so loved. And owe this state a debt? Walz over taxes everything you've paid your debt.

But that’s life, you take the good with bad. It’s not exclusive to the USA Either.
The US government will interfere with even the government of countries that it considers close allies if it thinks doing so is in its best interests. Look at what the US (and UK) did to Gough Whitlam here in Australia because Whitlam dared to suggest that he might not renew the lease on the Pine Gap CIA listening station in the Australian outback (a station that is presumably able to listen to radio traffic that stations elsewhere can't, hence why the CIA needs it so badly)

@@OmniSlayer- i agree. The states has a lot of things going for it, but unfortunately there are people who only see interests in what benefits them. Which is why I always advocate for learning history. If you don’t, it repeats itself. Just have to be sure to keep yourself educated, which is something we do struggle with.
How about the 1933 Business Plot? In 1933, prestigious US Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler came forward claiming that a group of several Wall Street bankers and prominent businessmen (including Prescott Bush, father of George H. W. Bush and grandfather of George W. Bush) wanted him to lead a coup against President Roosevelt and install a fascist dictatorship, which they would finance and run from behind the scenes. Butler testified under oath before the House of Representatives, but the men he identified as being involved in the plot all denied his allegations, and the media treated the whole thing as a hoax, completely dismissing Butler.
I'm a Tulsa native and I didn't learn about the race roit here until I was in my 20s I'm 46 now. I found out about it while in college and read a transcript my mother had when she was a college student at OU.
This shit makes me sick to my stomach. When I hear politicians say, "This isn't who we are as Americans," it confuses me. It's exactly who this country is. Bigotry, Racism, and exceptionalism flow freely through this country's veins. I'm just sad that there is no justice for the poor and marginalized. All the people who committed these acts and perpetrated such high levels of evil should be held accountable, and their names etched in stone as monsters of history.
Exactly and they got the nerve to tell black people they should stand for their anthem after the way they have treated us in this country and continue to treat us. Now they trying to take away all the progress we made under civil rights.
@theodoreparson4321 America doesn't respect anyone who can't commit violence against them. It either has to be fiscal violence (hurt their bottom line) or be an actual threat to the country. Words only get you placated. Eventually, it has to come to action. All the civil rights activities impacted bottom lines, and they couldn't have that.
Lincoln was president during the "Indian Wars", which was in reality the largest and most near complete genocide in all of human history. History is written as something "based on actual events" like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, with the end result having only superficial and incidental resemblances to what actually happened. No working class southerner would fight and die for slaves to take their jobs. That doesn't even make sense. The Civil War was over unequal taxation to force southern agriculture to fund northern industrialization, and a hostile Cavalry occupation to genocide the peaceful Cherokee, who by then were our friends, neighbors and inlaws. As a child, I saw prison chaingangs doing road work in the heat of summer, chained together with real chains. Mostly black, for whatever that implies. Seeing that as a child was traumatizing, and it sticks with me still today. I imagine a child in the 1800s accompanying his parents to the commerce part of town for groceries, supplies or whatever. The usual trip to the store. Then the child sees a group of weary, broken-spirited men, chained to each other, being led and commanded by a free person. I imagine that child, even back in those days, would be traumatized by what he saw. I imagine that no one could be in favor of slavery, except the very worst kind of people. Content of character has absolutely NOTHING to do with geography. There were slaves in the north. The laws allowing it were WRITTEN by the GOVERNMENT. If Lincoln, the biggest genocider in all of human history, so loved the slaves, why didn't he free them BEFORE the war, instead of after? Damage control. Narrative control. The creative crafting of history. This is how the greatest mass murderer of all time got to be the "Great Emancipator". And why we can now supposedly separate the humanitarians from the bigots by drawing a line across a map. Boothe was a northerner. He knew what Lincoln really was, and served him justice, even if a bit late. But the books have to point out that Boothe was a confederate sympathizer. Got to have those embellishments, to back up the lies with more lies. The killer of the most evil president ever was a hero. But the written history has to deny him that honor.
I am a Japanese Hawai'ian whose family was there when the Kingdom of Hawai'i fell, and our queen was forced to sign over her crown to America. My grandparents were 16 in Hawai'i when the P1 Zeros flew over their home and dropped the bombs on Pearl Harbor. My other great grandparents were "Onions" in San Fransico before the building of the Golden Gate Bridge and the race riots in the SF Chinatown because the US didn't care if you were Japanese of Chinese, we were all the same to them. My grandparents were removed from their homes in 1942 and sent to Manzanar Japanese Internment camp and watched as friends, and family died in the horrors of the camps. Both of my grandfathers joined the fight in WW2, the 100th Infantry Battalion out of Ft.Shafter Hawai'i and the 442nd RCT comprised of Japanese Americans. I remember my grandfather telling me two things before he died in 2003. He said that when he came home to San Fransico after helping drop the bombs in Japan, he thought he could walk the streets a proud hero for helping his country but instead he was beaten, and his home was destroyed. He then warned me that it will happen again the US will alienate and persecute their own citizens for not being the same as them, because We never learn... the US never learns.

I have a few that weren’t mentioned. Lincoln was not the altruistic, saintly person people like to act he was. He ordered the largest mass execution in U.S. history when 38 starving Dakota men were hanged on December 26, 1862. The Dakota were intentionally being starved by a government official in Mankato Minnesota who said “they can eat grass if they’re hungry”. The Dakota, along with allies, tried to get food and were captured. Lincoln made sure that the white men who helped the Dakota were exonerated but many were executed and it became illegal to be Dakota in Minnesota afterward. Lincoln also didn’t have the intention to free slaves in the civil war. He stated that if he could preserve the union without freeing a single slave he or if he had to free them all he would. So freeing slaves was an afterthought to him. The codetalkers were integral to U.S. plans in WWII but it was illegal for them to speak and teach their language and traditions at home until 1978. Also, indigenous women on reservations were being involuntarily sterilized by the government until 1978. Hitler received inspiration for his camps from America’s treatment of indigenous people on the reservations. Henry Ford, the founder of Ford Motor Company, was a hero to Hitler and received the grand cross of the German eagle. Which is the highest award a non-German could receive from the Nazi government. In the 19 teens the U.S. government sprayed Mexican immigrants with zyklon-b upon entering the us using the old “dirty foreigner” narrative. The effects of it also gave hitler the idea to use this in his camp gas chambers. Jewish people in Europe begged the US and other allied nations to take their children to keep them safe but the government refused. They helped out England, France and other nations though. The US played a major part in the formation of Israel and taking that land from the Palestinian people. One professor I had stated it was formed because none of the allies wanted the Jews in their countries. So the formed Israel under the guise of creating a homeland. Much like how the US formed Liberia with the intention of shipping black people to Africa. Hawaii was illegally annexed and made into a state. The U.S. government is responsible for destabilizing many governments and that is why many of the nations of central and South America are poor and struggling.

Also see below: Lincoln issued his Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, which stated that enslaved people in those states or parts of states still in rebellion as of January 1, 1863, would be declared free. The Emancipation Proclamation became in effect almost at the end of the civil war

Seems like I got lucky learning about the Tulsa Race Massacre when I was in school. Because a lot a people never knew it happened there for decades. Especially the people living in Tulsa. I certain now days though the teachers would get fired for teaching about the massacre because our state politicians would call it "woke". or saying it is "critical race theory". there are books I read when I was in school that are banned now that were a requirement to read when I went to school. And I only gradated HS 8 years ago. Bunch of fascist trying to rule our country.

The list of dictatorships installed with covert US assistance omits the Suharto dictatorship that took power through a military coup in Indonesia in 1965, with the deaths of up to a million Indonesians. The Suharto regime also invaded and occupied East Timor, resulting in the deaths of one-third of that country's population. As an Australian I regret that successive Australian governments were also complicit in the installation of the Suharto regime and its subsequent crimes.
The problem is that these terrible things in history seem to repeat themselves. The very first one you have the Wilmington riot that mirrored the January 6 insurrection. These things constantly repeat themselves, and we can look back and we shake our heads, but then we repeat history again, it’s scary it’s sad. We don’t need to forget it because when we forget it, we end up repeating the same mistakes.

The American government doesn't CARE if you know about any of this. They just don't throw it in everyone's face 24-7. Like the Tulsa Race Riot (that's what it used to be called and I'm sticking to it), it's a regional event that didn't contribute ANYTHING of note to either race relations or civil rights. It was, when you do study the subject, just one of many incidents in the entire country. That's why you don't normally hear about it in Gen Ed courses. Just because they made a couple HBO shows about it doesn't mean it was some massively important event that's a crime to have never learned or been taught. History is the story of humanity, like any story we don't focus on every single detail when we tell the tale. That's up to you to find out.

Targeting civilians is kinda difficult if you are in the pacific only where ONLY military complexes are from them). I dont talk about the nukes btw. They where nessesary if you research and think hard about it... as hard as it sounds. The rest? With White phospor and all? WAS NOT! Starting the Pacific war (wich is a fact, the US shoot first waaay bevor Yamamoto decleared war on them via the message 1 hour bevor the attack) Also 2nd place of you.... yea... well.. sorry YOU made them do that US. Also Russia FORCED that onto japan as well. And yes, as a leader during a different time like it was back then? I would have done EVERYTHING to safe my people or gain an edge. Especiel after Russia REFUSED to help in peace talks prior AND during WW2 given they only wanted japan to lose completly so they could steal teritory.

Inspired by this sight, Key penned a poem set to a British drinking song. “Defense at Fort McHenry,” as he called the poem, became “The Star-Spangled Banner,” our national anthem, in 1931.

I'm amazed nobody here has mentioned the Coal Wars yet. These were a series of labor conflicts in Appalachia between the 1890s and 1930s in which coal miners and unions violently clashed with their managers and with government and mercenary forces sent to put them down. The apex of these conflicts was the Battle of Blair Mountain in 1921, in which 10,000 armed coal miners engaged in a whole week of intense shootouts with 30,000 policemen, private detectives and National Guard troops. This remains the largest civil conflict that has ever broken out in the USA since the Civil War.
Honestly one of the most interesting parts of our history. And, yeah, for most Americans it might as well not have even happened.

Butler testified under oath before the House of Representatives, but the men he identified as being involved in the plot all denied his allegations, and the media treated the whole thing as a hoax, completely dismissing Butler.

There’s still amazing things about the USA
Lincoln was president during the "Indian Wars", which was in reality the largest and most near complete genocide in all of human history. History is written as something "based on actual events" like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, with the end result having only superficial and incidental resemblances to what actually happened. No working class southerner would fight and die for slaves to take their jobs. That doesn't even make sense. The Civil War was over unequal taxation to force southern agriculture to fund northern industrialization, and a hostile Cavalry occupation to genocide the peaceful Cherokee, who by then were our friends, neighbors and inlaws. As a child, I saw prison chaingangs doing road work in the heat of summer, chained together with real chains. Mostly black, for whatever that implies. Seeing that as a child was traumatizing, and it sticks with me still today. I imagine a child in the 1800s accompanying his parents to the commerce part of town for groceries, supplies or whatever. The usual trip to the store. Then the child sees a group of weary, broken-spirited men, chained to each other, being led and commanded by a free person. I imagine that child, even back in those days, would be traumatized by what he saw. I imagine that no one could be in favor of slavery, except the very worst kind of people. Content of character has absolutely NOTHING to do with geography. There were slaves in the north. The laws allowing it were WRITTEN by the GOVERNMENT. If Lincoln, the biggest genocider in all of human history, so loved the slaves, why didn't he free them BEFORE the war, instead of after? Damage control. Narrative control. The creative crafting of history. This is how the greatest mass murderer of all time got to be the "Great Emancipator". And why we can now supposedly separate the humanitarians from the bigots by drawing a line across a map. Boothe was a northerner. He knew what Lincoln really was, and served him justice, even if a bit late. But the books have to point out that Boothe was a confederate sympathizer. Got to have those embellishments, to back up the lies with more lies. The killer of the most evil president ever was a hero. But the written history has to deny him that honor.
what about the patriot act? Edward Snowden?

I am a Japanese Hawai'ian whose family was there when the Kingdom of Hawai'i fell, and our queen was forced to sign over her crown to America. My grandparents were 16 in Hawai'i when the P1 Zeros flew over their home and dropped the bombs on Pearl Harbor. My other great grandparents were "Onions" in San Fransico before the building of the Golden Gate Bridge and the race riots in the SF Chinatown because the US didn't care if you were Japanese of Chinese, we were all the same to them. My grandparents were removed from their homes in 1942 and sent to Manzanar Japanese Internment camp and watched as friends, and family died in the horrors of the camps. Both of my grandfathers joined the fight in WW2, the 100th Infantry Battalion out of Ft.Shafter Hawai'i and the 442nd RCT comprised of Japanese Americans. I remember my grandfather telling me two things before he died in 2003. He said that when he came home to San Fransico after helping drop the bombs in Japan, he thought he could walk the streets a proud hero for helping his country but instead he was beaten, and his home was destroyed. He then warned me that it will happen again the US will alienate and persecute their own citizens for not being the same as them, because We never learn... the US never learns.

I have a few that weren’t mentioned.
Lincoln was not the altruistic, saintly person people like to act he was. He ordered the largest mass execution in U.S. history when 38 starving Dakota men were hanged on December 26, 1862. The Dakota were intentionally being starved by a government official in Mankato Minnesota who said “they can eat grass if they’re hungry”. The Dakota, along with allies, tried to get food and were captured. Lincoln made sure that the white men who helped the Dakota were exonerated but many were executed and it became illegal to be Dakota in Minnesota afterward.
Lincoln also didn’t have the intention to free slaves in the civil war. He stated that if he could preserve the union without freeing a single slave he or if he had to free them all he would. So freeing slaves was an afterthought to him.
The codetalkers were integral to U.S. plans in WWII but it was illegal for them to speak and teach their language and traditions at home until 1978. Also, indigenous women on reservations were being involuntarily sterilized by the government until 1978.
Hitler received inspiration for his camps from America’s treatment of indigenous people on the reservations. Henry Ford, the founder of Ford Motor Company, was a hero to Hitler and received the grand cross of the German eagle. Which is the highest award a non-German could receive from the Nazi government. In the 19 teens the U.S. government sprayed Mexican immigrants with zyklon-b upon entering the us using the old “dirty foreigner” narrative. The effects of it also gave hitler the idea to use this in his camp gas chambers.
Jewish people in Europe begged the US and other allied nations to take their children to keep them safe but the government refused. They helped out England, France and other nations though. The US played a major part in the formation of Israel and taking that land from the Palestinian people. One professor I had stated it was formed because none of the allies wanted the Jews in their countries. So the formed Israel under the guise of creating a homeland. Much like how the US formed Liberia with the intention of shipping black people to Africa.
Hawaii was illegally annexed and made into a state. The U.S. government is responsible for destabilizing many governments and that is why many of the nations of central and South America are poor and struggling.

The American government doesn't CARE if you know about any of this. They just don't throw it in everyone's face 24-7. Like the Tulsa Race Riot (that's what it used to be called and I'm sticking to it), it's a regional event that didn't contribute ANYTHING of note to either race relations or civil rights. It was, when you do study the subject, just one of many incidents in the entire country. That's why you don't normally hear about it in Gen Ed courses. Just because they made a couple HBO shows about it doesn't mean it was some massively important event that's a crime to have never learned or been taught. History is the story of humanity, like any story we don't focus on every single detail when we tell the tale. That's up to you to find out.

Regarding #7...meddling in other countries' politics. Well, at least that is something that could never happen here...right?
Let's not ignore the many claims of the CIA's involvement in the Crack Pandemic of the 80s and 90s.
The wording of this video makes me question the accuracy of this video.
Watch mojo yall better chill I like yall videos don’t get Fred hampton’d out here you know how the government do.
10 things is difficult but my top 3:
Iran/Irak had no ABC weaponry after 9/11
Terrorbombing Japan throughout WW2 while Japan ONLY targeted military against america (yea duh! Targeting civilians is kinda difficult if you are in the pacific only where ONLY military complexes are from them). I dont talk about the nukes btw. They where nessesary if you research and think hard about it... as hard as it sounds. The rest? With White phospor and all? WAS NOT!
Starting the Pacific war (wich is a fact, the US shoot first waaay bevor Yamamoto decleared war on them via the message 1 hour bevor the attack)
Also 2nd place of you.... yea... well.. sorry YOU made them do that US. Also Russia FORCED that onto japan as well. And yes, as a leader during a different time like it was back then? I would have done EVERYTHING to safe my people or gain an edge. Especiel after Russia REFUSED to help in peace talks prior AND during WW2 given they only wanted japan to lose completly so they could steal teritory.
I knew that mk ultra would be on that list,milking that story to the max
Fuck corruption
I'd like to see a list of what our government did to their lgbtq citizens.
Think of all the fucked up shit they're doing now! 😅
They want you to forget Mortal Kombat Ultra.
They especially want you to forget about the part of Mmm K that focused on radiation warfare and cancer causing agents

It's no surprise that this country has had a terrible habit of sweeping the dirt under the rug.
And that rug looks like ➡️ 🇺🇸

This country has the potential to be a truly amazing home for everyone. And to make that a reality, we need to confront the mistakes of the past and learn from them. Only then can we move forward and create a better future for all.
How about the Japanese camps America had during world War 2. I never knew about them. I read a non fiction book and found out about them.
The Philadelphia massacre
