I expanded this post just to see what was up, lost interest after the second paragraph (not personal just not for me) and then went to scroll down the feed, but it just. Kept. Scrolling.

Please remember to touch grass in-between gaming sessions and essays about your game. I wish I could find something i loved as much as I assume you must love TO lmao

Plus the West would have most of it's critical infrastructure far away from the border. Much easier to protect your heavy industry when it's 1500 miles away from the fighting. The South and Midwest have relatively vulnerable infrastructure not far from their borders, easy distance to target without having to refuel and less time to intercept any missiles.

Red fash isn't real it can't hurt you

Banning BMF was a mistake and I think we should make an exception to the sectarianism rule for oracles and/or cranks

This only happens to liberals

Exactly that. We often quip that "America is willing to fight this war to the last Ukrainian." That's barely sarcasm if you listen to the words uttered by the ghouls in power directly, who crow proudly about how they are weakening Russia without the cost of any American lives. Ukraine has been pressing men into service, abducting them off the streets and from the arms of their loved ones, so they might be forced to the front line and be turned into pink mist. This presentation of events is not to give favor or preference to Russia, but simply to acknowledge that the slaughter could not continue without Western Aid and support. This war would have been over long ago had Ukraine simply ceded the two breakaway provinces, but with the meddling of NATO and particularly the US and UK, it has been egged on until hundreds of thousands are now dead or permanently maimed. All this is an exercise of expanding military industrial complex executives yearly bonuses, impoverishing Europe so they are more reliant on the US and less independent, and expanding markets for Western capital. How cheap other people's lives are in the eyes of our overlords.

Yeah i basically see this article being written as a warning to the MIC - back your boy Biden or lose your golden goose.

The killings shall continue until morale improves.

"The political class has demonstrated unparalleled cowardice and incompetence by refusing to come forward and remove the president from power. His cognitive abilities have declined past the point of tolerability for someone who must be commander and chief of the strongest military in human history. The military suffers no such flaws (don't laugh!), so we have made the hard but necessary decision to dissolve the government and prevent America falling to ruin."

Bruh libs and chuds alike would cum in their pants over an address like that.

I think they just take 25% of income going to savings for granted. Everyone has a 401k, an IRA, an emergency fund, and if they're really doing well, an investment account. "Savings* to these people are their fun money. It's what they dip into because the new phone just dropped and they want it now, not later. Or it's what they plan to spend on large purchases, and don't even begin to think about having to compromise their lifestyle to afford a new fridge or washing machine or bi-annual vacation. They have no concept of people whom have exclusively a couple thousand or tens of thousand--and some amount of equity in their home if they're lucky-- and nothing else to their name. For the bottom 3 quintiles of wealth in this country, any rise in the stock market is literally immaterial to their well-being.

"When It Comes to the Value of Their Holdings, the Wealthy Far Outpace the Rest-- When measuring the value of stock holdings, wealthier Americans have more money invested in the market. Families in the top 10% of incomes held 70% of the value of all stocks in 2019, with a median portfolio of $432,000. The bottom 60% of earners held only 7% of stocks by value. The median middle-class household owned $15,000 worth of stock." -US News article

What, you don't own any stocks? Well that's just bad fiscal management! What have you spending all your money on?!?

Yeah, collecting the $120 from low wage earners in a regressive flat tax is, by itself, a fucked up thing to do. Those people are closest to precarity and will feel the sting more than even a median wage earner would thrice over, or a top 1% wage earner 100+ times over. The pain is the point I imagine. Gotta make even the worst off feel like something is being taken from them and motivate them to retribution, or simply motivate them to work harder for their bourgeois lords.

And to be clear, banging my wife isn't a total deal breaker

Cheaper alternatives, surely. No need to waste money on a $20 shake when a $3 one will do fine.

It's not better when it's young men forced to die in the mud, but it's certainly not a good sign when they've run out of young men to do the dying.
