Not sure why this is downvoted.
The nature of conflict has changed many times through history, obsoleting state-of-the-art technologies (which arguably the F-35 is unconvincing at) from a bygone era.
I think it is because the "nutcases" (a rude term BTW) were specified to be on one side of the political spectrum, and that the country chosen for the example of "persuading the American electorate" (later referred to as "Gullible people") also implies something about one side of the political spectrum. Overall, the comment strongly implies that one side of the political spectrum has the "nutcases" and "Gullible people".

Bike lock guy? That guy who kicked a woman filming him at an abortion rally? There's a whole bunch of inciting online all the time, but we ignore that. There's been a whole bunch.
