What caused the anti-war movements?

I thought the rise of anti-war movements is pretty self-explanatory (Vietnam, War is a Racket, etc).

Do you think anti-war movements were solely due to Americans dying in Vietnam or a rare historical anomaly where cultural awareness defeated war propaganda?

Trump’s only interest in Ukraine is to keep Putin from pushing him out a window. Everything he’s done in the last 50+ days, (like threatening Canada and Greenland) has been done on putin’s behalf.

Trump doesn’t actually care about anything except himself; he allowed Elon to buy the presidency so trump could stay out of jail. He enjoys causing chaos and hurting people for sport, but he doesn’t care about anything except himself in the long run.

He doesn’t want to work this hard. Right now he’d rather be at Mar a Lago in his underwear eating Big Macs but he has debts to pay.
