The audacity to flex that millions of Africans are flooding to your faggoty continent. There is nothing better than Euros thinking that because their media REEEEEs about us all the time and people meme online that our quality of life is poor and we're dying of fat on the broken streets. Meanwhile I enjoy my life in my air conditioned home, drive whenever I want to for 3 dollars a gallon, say whatever I please with no repercussions, and partake in MANY a burger.
Americans bitch online because A: we're allowed to and B: we're rad and want it to be even better instead of being complacent with broken systems that drag us down. We still wouldn't trade it for some European soyhole (well maybe Null would cause of his ODD)
 
Pete Hegseth: "I'm a man of faith who encourages our troops to lean into their faith. Rely on God. There's no atheists in foxholes. Your mortality is right in front of you."

"My Christian faith, faith in general, is important to Trump. It's important in our fighting ranks to give them perspective on human nature, on their own humanity, on our own mortality."

"We lost a lot of that with sort of self-help, self-esteem nonsense, which is not what troops need."

I'm not convinced we'll ever get to the bottom of this, and most people won't believe it if their pre-chosen side is proven wrong anyway.
Even if its 100% proven without a shadow of doubt that it was an Iranian rocket that hit the school on purpose or accident the left will just say "Iran wouldn't have launched the rocket in the first place had America not attacked them so it's still America's fault." They don't care about the truth.
 
I think with age you realize that arguing isn't necessarily about converting somebody to your position immediately, but instead to embed your ideas into them, in the hope that some time they may recall them and come around to your position.

I ve made progress with my shit lib friend.

He doesnt like ambiguity grew up in a red neck house hold but lives in a blue city works as a policey wonk for a govermental agencey and suffers from a bais that the system works and trust in authority because he is part of the sytem.

He has kids and supports trans rights but when I push him surenders, he agrees that they tech overlords wish to use social media to manipulate people of course its to worship trump.

but when I frame his own experience to a narative it kinda works, his youngest son need tutoring and I explained the issues with education and I basically pointed out that the state mandates down to the minute how to run the class room on each subject, and it creates problems.

He engages in performative guilt that he can pay for extra schooling to teach his son what the schools dont do.

When I pointed out that you need the state to release the mandates and allow and trust the teacher to do their job, and just have a standard and consequences for not meeting those standards. This leaks through.

The meta though his that his career his reputation his money standing in his community and family have the pressure of libshittiery if he goes against that shit it doesnt benifit him.

So the correct way foward is to relate to lived experience and avoid any npc programing thought terminating language.
 
Some people have gone so all-in on Trump and how US bombs solve everything that there will be no coming back after this.
Ever notice how Japan was a gigantic pain in the ass back in the early 40's? Destroying our ships, killing our soldiers by the thousands, shelling our shoreline, dragging the war out for years out of sheer stubbornness? We dropped 2 (two) bombs, and they haven't given us any grief since.
All of our problems can be solved with bombs, unironically. Most of our problems stem from our refusal to bomb our enemies before they became an issue. The world is a Legend of Zelda dungeon, I'm afraid.
Bomb Mexico, bomb India, bomb Minnesota.

MacArthur was right about the chinks. Imagine if the US carpet bombed the Soviet Union and China with nuclear bombs right after WW2 before they could ever become a threat to America, and before they could steal the nuclear bomb right from us
 
I'm not talking about gas prices so much as I am the entire global financial system as we all know it. It's all based on the US guaranteeing shipping. That's what has allowed us to run up $40 TRILLION in debt and still eat. I don't think it's quite sinking in what that means.

Can of beans?

Didn't the US announce there would be Navy escort through the straight of Hormuz?

Not that I wouldn't put it past the goatfuckers to keep trying to attack, but having a US Navy cruiser sailing alongside you, you know, the kind of ship what can remotely vaporize goatfuckers who get uppity, should make it safer to pass through the straight, yes?

We could've and should've given the entire world the Japan treatment. "You're not allowed to have militaries anymore, I'm afraid. Comply or get bombed." It was the only moment in human history where world peace was not only feasible, but easily in reach. But oh no, we just had to sit by and watch the Russians get nukes. Then the Europeans, then the Chinks. Now the world is permanently on the brink of catastrophe, and it will remain that way until we're all choking on the ashes of our civilization. All of this could've been avoided by simply bombing people. We should bomb any country that so much as considers building a nuclear program. We should bomb North Korea today, right now. We should throw a few darts at a map and bomb the countries they land on. We should photo bomb, review bomb, and jaeger bomb. Love bombs. They're the bomb.
 
To be completely fair that scene almost certainly gave a huge chunk of our generation a rape fetish. Even I remember feeling some odd things during it but by the grace of god managed to pull through, at least I was 13 and had been jacking off by that point so i had some context. For younger kids it must have taken them completely off guard. Troons seem to really like this show as well. I still loved it.
I'm sorry to say this, son, but it's not the jews (just this once) but only your autism speaking. And it's time you stopped listening.

The main problem with attacking NK is Seoul is so close to the DMZ that just standard artillery can pulverize it really fast without nukes. If it weren't for that right after the fall of the USSR and before China in the WTO in the mid 90s would've been a really good time. I've had more than a few that were stationed there tell me the main reason the US had such a presence mostly was to keep the south from invading the north first so the chinese/USSR wouldn't go wild, but they weren't exactly high level there or anything.

I think that the alternate history of taking out the USSR/China before 1948 or so is a bit more interesting long term alternate history than even if Germany had won WW2. There's not a whole lot of fiction on that unlike the endless Nazi takeover fiction.

I don't give a fuck about South Koreans lol. They aren't even American, did you know that? They're these weird little yellow fellows is all. The way I see it, anyone who threatens us should get bombed. If an African warlord with a spear and a feather headdress threatens to attack, he should be bombed. It's the principle of the matter. Once you bomb enough of them, they'll learn to stop threatening you. That or they'll all die, an equally good outcome. If I were in charge, the bombs would be on their way to NK within minutes. Sorry, South Korea. Your fault for being that close to such an eminently bombable nation.
The rest of your post, I have no disagreements with.
 
One more bomb-related musing while I'm sperging out, bombs are fundamentally American. Our national anthem literally includes a line about how pretty our flag looks when illuminated by the rocket's red glare, and the bombs bursting in air. We've loved bombs since day 1, and that love of bombs has served us very well over the last 250 years. We celebrate our nation's birthday with explosives. I fucking hate seeing Americans cry about how heccin' wrong it is to bomb people who threaten us. Fuck 'em. Move to Switzerland or some other fag country if you don't like bombs.
