Nonsense, when we ask ourselves “unsung, what level of violence will make anyone, even government afraid? What level will make everyone in the world back down?”
And the answer? Cartel levels
They have taught us so much when it comes to unbridled levels of violence

The reason given why the US won’t label the cartels in Mexico terrorist organizations and go after them the same way we have ISIS and the Taliban in the past is that the cartels don’t have a political or religious ideology and thus don’t fit the description, even after the cartels torture and kill multiple US citizens like they just did a few months back
But the real reason? Fear. There is almost nothing the cartels can do at this point on either side of the border that would make us want to engage with them on a large scale
And that is how you win by fear of violence
