Solid logic

Sounds like hegseth likes DEI after all, just for different skin tones and reproductive arrangements.

Nothing in what you said negates the fact that American can be better or it can be worse.

There is always a choice.

Ukraine has archeological evidence of cities of 20-40 thousand people with no evidence of hierarchy or rulers.

Fixing what trump has broken will be a generational project, and nobody will be given the time required.

Humans lived for 10s of thousands of years under communism. Capitalism was invented and within a couple of centuries the human race is commiting collective suicide with falling birth rates.

We thought we couldn’t do worse than Bush, but here we are. I’m not holding my breath for the future. I’m expecting 4 years of someone not a total asswipe and then we elect mecha hitler or someone somehow worse.

Yeah if these tools ever get used by leftists civil war will get a whole lot more likely.

There might be an opportunity after we blow through the missiles and drones over the next few years if a debt crisis wrecks our economy.

Not holding my breath, but the future is uncertain.

Calling it now, when striking military targets fails to get surrender, we will switch to war crimes, Israel and then the US will start hitting water, food, and transportation infrastructure.

The only way to get victory from this war is genocide.

Is requiring a guy to wear a condom over the top?

No. Definitely not over the top. No other information is needed. If you were married for 20 years and you wanted condoms your husband should respect that.

The northwest territories were north and west of the original thirteen colonies, more or less. They are not more north east of the country as a whole, because westward expansion continued.

Remember that every time you imagine the American voter.

China has geographical problems that hamstring it against American Empire.

Until/unless they build a blue water navy that can blockade America or an alliance system that can shut us out of the indo-pacific, they are fucked in a straight up conflict.

It was a power grab. The US intervened softly to stop the growth of the third Reich into a hegemon, funding Britain, France, and the Soviet Union.

When Japan hit Pearl harbor Roosevelt was forced to war and honestly he and his team were probably itching to get in there are flex American power to shape events directly. Truman finished things out trying to box in the soviets once it was clear the allies were gonna win.

Thelose are just “other rich people” that have the good sense to stay out of the public eye.

A network of rich and powerful people influencing the state isn’t “the deep state” it’s “the state”

Like what makes anyone think they are hiding it?

If I know it’s me, “mine some Bitcoin” if I don’t necessarily know it’s me? “You transitioned… Me”

Russia can’t even show up for Russia. I doubt Iranians thought Russia would launch nukes for them.

Ukraine had physical possession of nukes but no ability to use them. The Russians never let them have the launch codes.

Ukrainian officials knew they weren’t getting anything worthwhile in the Budapest memorandum because they weren’t giving anything up besides a headache.

South Africa gave up their nukes and decommissioned their nuclear program. Ukraine just formalized what was already true, the nukes were not usable for them.
