This means that if another country's military is capable of ending a person's life, the USA must find a way to one-up that somehow. Otherwise both fighting forces are equally lethal.

What does she have planned? Do they have a weapon that can destroy the eternal soul?

Yeah that last bit was referring to a platonic ideal of politicians in the States, not necessarily Kamala.

It's like that example of news papers reporting on their advertisers from manufacturing consent.

The politician is effectively handcuffed to the policies of the supporters. I get frustrated when I see posts that are like "oh you like Kamala? Well she did xyz villainous act". All I can think is "yeah and? We're in the states and she's one of the two candidates for president in 2024. We're lucky she's not somehow worse.
