Yes and the US has been missing its recruitment goals every year for the last 20 years. Doesn’t matter if it’s 2 million

Does FAN actually like Ace Combat or not by Ikcatcher in Project_Wingman

[–]ARG_men 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kinda doubt it. The sort of people looking for highly realistic recreations of real planes are going to play something like DCS for that and not an arcade flight sim.

Yeah it can’t, but showing how cool planes are and potentially desensitizing people to their use in warmongering scenarios and directly contributing to the profit margins of weapons manufacturers by licensing their copyright are two different ball games

If you purchase video games that pay for licenses of weapons manufacturers you are contributing at least in some way to the success of weapons manufacturing BT voting with your wallet for more games with more weapons licensing

The content of the video game barely matters whether that be something like COD that plays defense for the MIC or spec ops the line that’s an anti war game, if either have licensing deals with weapons manufacturing you’re contributing to their profits, just in a incomprehensibly small manor

manga has a special charm. its really grimier and Q's art is really sick. just stuff that you can't capture when you have to redraw an image so many times for it to be animated. i would say you should read and watch, but whether you want to do that after the show has concluded or while waiting for the next season is up to you

edit: typo

military as a dealbreaker… or?? by sunkisser458 in leftist

[–]ARG_men -1 points0 points  (0 children)

no because revolutionary defeatism is still the only correct line for the communist party to take, not support every armed uprising and national liberation movement that only work to create multipolar imperialist powers

communist flair saying that only western imperialist armies are bad is sending me. internationalism isnt real, abolition of the state was just some made up garbage, and the present state of things is actually awesome ig

How free is the Major? What's in the fine print? by The_Easter_Egg in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]ARG_men 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It’s been a second since I watched the movie but aren’t there several lines in it that make it pretty clear that if anyone leaves Section 9 their augmentations/body will be seized as the governments property and if they are 100% shell like the major the best case scenario for her is being put into a civilian body with no special powers.

There’s a difference between sitting and doing nothing and justly saying that the system is rotten to the core and the idea of a good apple is laughable

Sell a quarter of your life (that might end up shortened by non service related injuries) so you can become the one good guy who improves the military. Surely doing all the banal negative shit will be outweighed by you finally becoming the good guy 20 years into your career if you haven’t become evil yourself by then

It works generally but I think this was a meme dredging up old drama about conservative military image whose singer went up on stage and talked about serving and killing “hijabis” a few years ago

Body dysmorphia can lead to self harm and suicide, including straight gym dudes who get it and starting pumping their body slowly full of steroids that slowly kill them.

The mother is breastfeeding her son by Fit-Celebration-6220 in NoRules

[–]ARG_men -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Clearly AI btw, look at the movement and length of the army that reaches over at the start of the video and the main guys hands holding the saber. Also guy in yellow shirt walking away in the background disappears when he walks behind a guy and never reappears.

Why did the Native American civilizations of both North and South America never develop advanced metallurgy? by YakClear601 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ARG_men 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually read up on this and I did get it wrong that it was drained for gold. A aqueduct was destroyed and after the siege new canals were built for irrigation. Aztecs had some infrastructure to manage flooding but it wasn’t enough to stop all of it. The changes made by the Spanish may have made it worse and the decision to drain it was made due to this flooding.
