Everything else is great though.
Just a smol with big opinions about AFVs and data science. The onlyfans link is a rickroll.

She’s pretty pro-trump, but to my eye the distinction between if she’s courting trump because she just wants the influence he’ll bring or if she genuinely believes in his insanity it seems like the same result to me - she’s willing to treat with a murdering pedophile wannabe tyrant for power, that’s pretty damning on it’s own.


She’s pretty pro-trump, she probably will give it to him; it seems like an incredibly obvious bribe.


Why is trump doing something I’ve advocated that the US should be doing (removing embassy staff from Israel) suddenly so ominous? Goddamnit I hate this fucker.


Or it’s fearmongering clickbait!


Or it’s just clickbait.


The phone contained confidential contact details of staff involved in nuclear security work at the Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA).
I mean… It’s real stupid to have brought that with him to a different country, but keeping contact info in a phone seems like a reasonable place to keep it idk.


I think you’re giving the US way too much credit here. They helped south korea establish itself with a massive investment, but they didn’t “invent” the country, and its pretty insulting to south koreans that you’re so willing to take away their agency in the matter.


They escalated, yes - absolutely not denying that. But the point was that they didn’t just nuke the city. Winning was important, but there was a point that the consequences of winning were deemed to outweigh the victory itself.


That’s an oversimplification to the point that it really doesn’t represent my argument at all, though. But to treat with what you said, I’m not sure how
The US didn’t “feel” like winning the war was so important it justified nuking north vietnam
is a bad representation of the situation? The US didn’t drop sarin on the ho chi minh trail, nor did they nuke Hanoi, mobilize full wartime production, draft the “desirables” etc. Politics are a massive part of any war. “An army marches on it’s stomach” isn’t simply a literal adage about the importance of supplies.


Well… yeah, we could have.
If war was literally as simple as “kill the other person and damn the consequences” the US could have casually wiped out the viet cong at pretty much any point during the war. The political consequences for doing so were the limiting factor - an extreme example, but we could have just nuked north vietnam to glass and been done with it (and obviously that wasn’t a realistic option (despite the number of times some psycho general or the other tried to advocate for it)).


Full disclosure that I’m not confident on any of these names being right: in terms of candy specifically I’m really partial to Livada Moldovei, Dulcineea Pasarea, Maiastra and those little chocolate cone things I think aren’t called “carmen” but that’s the name written on them?
I haven’t actually found any I don’t like, though, for what that’s worth.


Absolutely incredible candy comes out of moldova. Damn does that country have an amazing confectionery culture.


I was in a hobby secret santa organized online - I got two presents that year, some very generous hobby additions and the discovery that San Marino isn’t just a region in Italy…


Yeah, why did we start thinking trump isn’t lying just because his lies now align with our preconceptions?
While it’s not quite a lie (I’m sure it factors in), this occurred days after Maduro announced a very positive meeting with a Chinese trade envoy. It’s very transparently a power consolidation thing, and the oil is just a convenient bonus.


Choosing not to spend my time explaining it to someone so insecure they accuse other people of botting them instead of accepting that they are posting an unpopular opinion is a reasonable choice on my part.
This shit is important, and that energy is much better spent elsewhere. I have allies who deserve my time. You have gone to great pains to exclude yourself from that list, a choice you have made which I am respecting.
I sincerely hope you have a nice day.


You’ve made it abundantly clear that you’re not my ally, why should I waste my time explaining this to you?
(edit: my smurf accounts? Are you serious?)


I didn’t say you were calling for violence.
I see no other way out of your situation
Okay, and you’re simply wrong.


I have no idea how you could draw that conclusion from my comments.
Anyways:
Don’t you agree that the regime could be overthrown if the decent people in the US […] were to join forces?
The US military just casually kidnapped a major head of state by exercising a tiny fraction of it’s resources, the general US population doesn’t have any more ability to violently resist that kind of overwhelming force than Venezuela does.
… christ, I have no idea if this is legit or not. Maybe… No? Just because he’d have to admit defeat?
