Tucker didn't use any irony or humor. And nobody in Afghanistan ever even heard about gender politics in the States, let alone took courses in it at Afghani universities. Nothing would have turned out differently in Afghanistan if the U.S, was universally unaccepting and nasty to LGBTQ people, any more than the U.S. lost in Vietnam because the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts were passed or the Shah of Iran was overthrown because the Equal Rights Amendment nearly passed and abortion ceased to be illegal.

The Taliban took power simply because nothing and no one could have prevented it- and Trump conceded a Taliban victory when he negotiated a U.S, military withdrawal. Nothing else had anythint to do with it, and nothing would be any less horrible in Afghanistan right now if Trump were still in office. And all of you on the right know it.
