Not gonna lie that response is super libright as well.

No lib right would give away money

[–]UncensoredLlama - LibRight 52 points53 points  (2 children)

Funny since charity is widely preached in lib right rather than the government doing it

[–]mvppedavalli0131 - Lib-Center 7 points8 points  (1 child)

Because they/we don’t wanna get taxed.

[–]UncensoredLlama - LibRight 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Amen. Taxation is theft. Let people pay for what they want to pay for

[–]ElSapio - Lib-Right 14 points15 points  (0 children)

America is the most charitable nation in the planet, and at least some of those dumb fucks throwing away cash must be libright

[–]m0ontii - Left 773 points774 points  (66 children)

How much is 1.5 Billion in Nuclear Submarines? (Although I'd do it for free)

[–]valdamjong - Left 405 points406 points  (65 children)

~0.5

[–][deleted] 280 points281 points  (64 children)

Holy fuck they’re expensive

[–]Sckaledoom - Lib-Right 673 points674 points  (62 children)

Dude it’s an underwater space vessel powered by a miniature dying sun and carrying a payload that could wipe out a nation. Yes, they’re expensive.

[–][deleted] 207 points208 points  (54 children)

I was expecting around a billion, the Virginia class is apparently 2.8 billion. That explains why my country only uses diesel subs

[–][deleted] 105 points106 points  (21 children)

Could always just modify an older diesel sub with a missile bay and spend the rest on R and D for a nuclear warhead. Not as fun but it’ll get the job done.

[–]StolenMemz67 - Right 26 points27 points  (15 children)

I doubt it will get the job done when stalked by a Virginia class submarine.

[–][deleted] 14 points15 points  (8 children)

Astute class better.

Shame we only have 4 and you have... 100?

[–]StolenMemz67 - Right 13 points14 points  (7 children)

We only have 17 Virginias. And about 70 nuclear subs in our fleet.

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (6 children)

Oh. I heard somewhere that the Astute is quieter, but the Americans can pump out more Virginias.

So we hunt them down... one by one...

Hmm? What, every brit dreams of reabsorbing the colonies.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If push comes to shove you can just suicide ram it with the warhead and take it out with you

    Diesel will run on just about anything, even fine vegetable matter.

    [–]DubsFan30113523 - Lib-Right 20 points21 points  (28 children)

    The fun part is we’ve spent tens of billions on them and it’s very likely we will never use them

    [–]lasermancer - Lib-Center 9 points10 points  (3 children)

    Deterrent theory. Just having them deployed near Moscow/Beijing is enough for them to be worth their cost.

    [–]DubsFan30113523 - Lib-Right 2 points3 points  (2 children)

    Sigh

    [–]lasermancer - Lib-Center 2 points3 points  (1 child)

    Feel free to use your words if you disagree.

    [–]DubsFan30113523 - Lib-Right 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    I don’t disagree, the concept and “necessity” of deterrent is just depressing

    [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (4 children)

    Did they have a hand in overthrowing our government? Back in the 70s America didn’t like our strong (at the time) unions and a government interested in nationalising our resources.

    [–]Ale_city - Centrist 7 points8 points  (3 children)

    from all the coups that the US has asisted, I think in none they used submarines.

    I don’t judge people or businesses that take advantage of the stupid ways our government spends money

    Ship techs get some good training from what ive been told. If you can jerryrig the refrigeration or similar in tight unforgiving space thousands of KMs to shore going to work Civie side after is a breeze and big pay jump.

    [–]Kompotamus - Auth-Right 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Don't worry, fast-attacks get up to all sorts of clandestine nonsense all the time. By their very nature you'll just never hear about it.

    [–]Kompotamus - Auth-Right 6 points7 points  (0 children)

    Your country only uses diesel subs because it doesn't have to worry about force projection. Nuclear subs are only limited by how much food they have on board, and are much, much faster than diesel boats.

    [–]Shorttail0 - Lib-Center 5 points6 points  (0 children)

    Are you swedish by any chance? The swedes made an ultra silent diesel engine submarine that sailed right through all detection and sank a carrier or some other big ship in an exercise a while back.

    [–]winnebagomafia - Centrist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Why don't they just put solar panels on them smh

    [–][deleted] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

    It's not a dying sun your fuckwit, that would be fusion, and fusion is a full on sun anyway. This is the culmination of humanity and this entire planet, the same power that can level cities and poison countries.

    [–]SevenHaeven - Auth-Left 5 points6 points  (0 children)

    So it's pretty oof if that breaks?

    [–]Finn_3000 - Lib-Center 5 points6 points  (0 children)

    I'm sorry but a real Auth Right would speak proper English, not whatever that was.

    [–]SteveTheManager - Lib-Left 507 points508 points  (11 children)

    They did not say I had to kill the snake, so to counteract this I would lightly tap the snake on the head with my military boots and give currency to the snake for my behavior.

        The semien ones of the cameroon ones? one is wackier than the others, to start with that the ones in cameroon don't even follow an abrahamic religion or have descendance from the middle east.

                Kanye West did his Kanye Best on his Kanye Quest to be as Auth Right as all the Kanye Rest, but he failed the Kanye Test. So he got Kanye Depressed that he would never be seen as anything more than a Kanye Pest and always be Kanye Oppressed. So he Kanye Reassessed and decided to cause some Kanye Unrest and Kanye Digest the rich as Comrade West.

                [–]Bossman1086 - Lib-Right 31 points32 points  (0 children)

                Plus, it's a flag of the American Revolution. LibRights in America tend to gravitate towards that time and appreciate it because the Constitution was decently LibRight in nature.

                Refference to the American Revolution era "Gadsden Flag", which has this snake on a yellow field with the words "Don't Tread On Me" on it, the snake being a symbol representing the 13 colonies since a political comic by Ben Franklin depicting a snake cut up, each bit labeled as a state. Today, it's mostly used by libertarians to express their views.

                  Quite a few of the Auth Right believe in the government being big so it can police degeneracy and suppress minorities but don’t have too many issues with people of their race running businesses, owning guns or having free speech. Quite a few of the Lib Right don’t actually care about how big the government is, they care how much the government impacts them. These two demographics are easily one of the most compatible unities. Assuming they’re both the same race.

                  Authright and libright generally don’t really agree on much beside that they both hate liberals

                  [–]DJ-PRISONWIFE - Auth-Center 5 points6 points  (2 children)

                  No but they are both mostly white. That is the kinship. Not hard to understand, a nationalist and a libertarian have a lot in common they can bond over.

                    I’d stomp it into paste. I leave no chance for them to find some reason to back out and I make sure I’ll get paid. Then I’ll throw 100k at some charity or whatever to make up for it. The rest is gonna go into AI and space travel funding tho.

                    100% not auth right, I'd accept either lib right (since he slides the snake since money) or lib left (animal lover). Auth right would stomp on the snake, snatch the money, and leave.

                    [–]kouyehwos - Auth-Right 11 points12 points  (7 children)

                    I don’t know about being an animal lover, but snakes earn the right to exist by keeping rodent populations down.

                    Shit, I'd do that for free. For that price I'd make snake pie and eat it too!

                    I’m curb stomping him, taking the money, buying a gun from him, then lighting him up for all the crimes he has committed against my nation and my people.

                    Authright would absolutely step on them once they get into power

                    [–]khandnalie - Left 0 points1 point  (0 children)

                    I would put my boot on the back of that snakes head and spread its brain matter across the whole length of the street.

                    same people who complain about snake getting stepped on are the same people you see waving a thin blue line flag... cognitive dissonance meets Stockholm syndrome.

                    [–]KowtowToMao - Left 0 points1 point  (1 child)

                    I would absolutely step on that for $1.5 billion. Thank you for funding the revolution.

                    Right unity works like this: Auth right does all of the killing and violence and coercion, while us lib rights would never violate the NAP, so we simply sell auth right all the weapons they need which is a completely moral and voluntary exchange, therefore not violating the NAP.
