I don’t think I could find a Spanish person, except perhaps a child, who didn’t understand the concept of an import tax. How are Americans so goddamn stupid that they don’t understand something that simple.
It’s a tax, in the United States, imposed by the president of the United States, why the fuck would a Spanish company pay it?
That’s why the media uses the term “tariffs” and describes them as being “imposed on {country X}”. That lets the people who desperately want their masters to be in the right to imagine foreign countries are being bullied into writing big checks.
Nah, that’s no excuse here. This is an adult. I don’t know how old they are, but I was taught about taxes and tariffs in school at two or three different ages. They were a big part of the American Revolution.
Because it’s a cult. You believe whatever nonsense the leader tells you to in order to be a member, and you want to stay a member because it fills some psychological need within you.

Wow, Thanks for that, I had completely missed this piece of Consent Manufacturing and I tend to be aware of them.
Because AFAIK the US republicans dismantled education as much as they could and now they have a bunch of absolute dummies running around.
Just as planned. And just as planned this gave the republicans more power.

There are plenty of places that still talk about “the War of Northern Aggression”, quality of education varies WILDLY between states.
