Ok… but to argue that to privatize war making to the lowest bidder sounds like the premise to a libertarian monkey paw nightmare. Like current mercenaries track record with human rights violations is…well poor would be an understatement. And what is the issue you have with NATO?

And this is what you are arguing that trump will do? Or should do? And you are aware of its full consequences?

That sounds really bad. Apologies but if this is all sarcasm, that is lost on me. I got people arguing that Trump helping Isreal finish the genocide quickly with be good for the Palestinians who live through it, and so sarcasm is long dead.

Right…i think the metaphor train has derailed here.

What possible action do you think the military could be ordered to do, that will harm its capability to wage war, and will not result in even more innocent people getting killed than the regular levels of evil? Or is this a ‘acceptable collateral damage as long as its not me’ type of thing?

The military will be effective at what ever it’ll do. You should hope it maintains some sanity at least. Like a loaded gun won’t jam just because a crazy person picked it up.

Sadly i had the same wishful thinking. Not that it matters mind you. Because she said she sided with Isreal, and wether she meant it or not at this point is moot.

Listen, i was vocal, i talked about voting a lot, about how i fucking hate the democrats, but they are the only way to avert a major disaster, and after i finished voting and told my friend group, i had one go “I’m not even registered to vote, lol” and “it’s not that big of a deal, we did a trump presidency last time, nothing changed” “both sides are blowing this out of proportion” and i lost my shit. I don’t know how you reach these people, maybe it’s time to start backing the leopard instead.

They are uncaring about such issues.

Before they pulled up the ladder. There is NOTHING more frustrating than looking up a problem, getting the exact question you are looking for, only for the answers to say the question is locked and given a link to another malformed question which tell you to rtfm, and that this is no longer supported., try to do something else with a completely different software in a completely different way. All in an attempt to keep the question pool pure. I do not mourn SO.

You would have to have something more concrete to tie a religious commandment to be considered “On to something”. You really got a nothing statement going on.

Well, well, well, time for the leopards to eat Mitch McConnels face.

Its not random when you tell a population to go to a place for safety and then you bomb them when they are concentrated in that place.

Random is giving them way too much. Those are targeted numbers

The states would have to be solvent, and willing to shoulder the burden right?

Establishment democrats who are pro Israel, and anti Ukraine. They are concerned with the super rich, and stand in the way of progressive policies. They say they are democrats, but their actions sound much more republican

What i do know is that confidence in Biden was in the shitter. Wile republicans have never had any consideration about trumps mental decline as long as he was their monster, left wing voters are fractional based on attaining left ideals, of which Biden did not achieve. Add on to that where Biden was in Obvious decline, it’s no wonder that there was infighting on his viability. The fact that there was even a discussion means that the incumbency was worth fuck and all.

You should be angry but all evidence points to your “i told you so!” Is incorrect. Trump won the popular vote, end of.

It is an advantage useful when it’s not enough to win? Do you not remember the numbers at the time?! For all the pro genocide and ignoring of his base, going on TV and having a senior moment for an hour ended all discussion on the matter. The fact that the internal fighting in its aftermath is proof that Biden did not have the confidence of his base. Harris is the current vice president, if you wanted an incumbent advantage that it’s what you had. And to argue that “burden would have won i told you so!” Is to argue from ignorance. You don’t know, and all evidence pointed to it not being so.

Good luck, and god speed.

You know what? I can’t blame you. I just had my world view that most people are kind beings ripped from me. I plan on sinking with the ship and doing anything i can like a good sailor.

Do you remember the number on this “incumbent advantage”? The establishment didn’t just switch out Biden on a whim. Biden literally fucked his chances at winning at the debate. You are barking up the wrong tree
