This is not really true:

While it is true that American-made vehicles, weapons, and other supplies have fallen into the Taliban's hands, the value of this equipment has been wildly exaggerated as rumors and memes circulated on social media.

No, I mean we spend a decade forming and training a formal afghan military specifically to prevent the taliban from taking over the country, and they folded in less than 48 hours
