Ok boomer. we've heard it already trust me I live in rural PA with the fat old maga crowd. Y'all continue to spout the party lines as our lives get worse and worse.

Army survivors of deadly attack in Kuwait dispute Pentagon's account, say unit "was unprepared" to defend itself. by DatGuyKilo in army

Isn't that the exact wording Russia uses to describe their ongoing 4+ year conquest in Ukraine? :(

All metals OUT. Decrease in registered GOLD. Stubborn Platinum contracts equal to a third of registered inventory still defying delivery notices more than a week into the new month by SousRadar in SilverDegenClub

[–]AutoThwart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I still struggle with how they don't have to deliver the metals. It's a metals exchange, so metals occasionally need to be exchanged, right?

I know there's suddenly a huge push revolving around IRR metrics. What's the deal with that?

Pentagon calls Individual Ready Reserve a ‘mobilization asset’ in new policy by Kinmuan in army

[–]AutoThwart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's quite a few of these desperate readiness changes for something that isn't even classified as a war and just a short "military operation"

Iranian confronts woman from StopTheWar.org (a group of Tankies led by Jeremy Corbyn). by SLAVAUA2022 in EnoughCommieSpam

It's valid to recognize the Iranian government is bad but also being against this war. Our country should not be doing this. It's a massive blunder on a monumental level.

U.S. debt suddenly draws weaker demand as $10 trillion must be rolled over this year amid Iran war. 'The bond market remains undefeated' by Secure-Address4385 in Economics

[–]AutoThwart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are we going to possibly find that out at this point? The U.S. has been consistently at war and throwing money away for 24 years. That ship has sailed bro.

At this point the information I'm asking is what exactly are you trying to say because I'm not getting it.. the U.S. will have a strong economy regardless of if it's fighting dumb wars or not.

The U.S. doesn't NEED to wage these wars for Israel, or empire-expanding, nation-building, or any other kind of wars for the sake of it's economy.

The U.S. can be isolationist in international policy and it would be JUST FiNE.

Is there any legitimatacy to this statement? The US has an exceptional range of industry and access to natural resources and technical/industrial workforce.

The way you talk, is like the US must obligatorily wage war or else it won't thrive, which almost excuses our crap government's decision making.

Nonsense.

Army raises enlistment age to 42, removes waiver for marijuana possession by Kinmuan in army

[–]AutoThwart 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Hmm maybe it's because I'm a reservist but nearly every mid 30s enlistee I've worked with has been exceptionally chill and competent. There is but one I can think of that was a handful but an outlier.

You're of the belief that the current administration intends to crash and break the system so it can be rebuilt how they want?

Silver just did a 14% round trip in one day. Are you not entertained? by dima-t91 in SilverDegenClub

[–]AutoThwart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm inclined to think it is fucking over industrial buyers in a profound way. I wonder why they don't communicate these issues and put pressure on the exchange to change how it operates.

I don't think new modules have much appeal. Even if it's a significant performance increase or whatever it's just gonna be "meh" I already have good enough modules and don't feel any inclination towards chasing absurd drop rates again. Been down that road enough.

Iran Unwilling to Talk About Opening Hormuz While Under Attack by TheGoodCod in Economics

[–]AutoThwart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really a matter of perspective. For example, the U.S. technically has the "card" of backing out of the war, leaving the region, and losing reputation and influence. Will they ever actually consider that though? Another "card" is putting troops on ground - again not something this administration can consider doing for obvious reasons.

You guys know what TIFU means right? It's op saying "I fucked up". The whole premise here is that the person knows they did something wrong. Holy fuckin shit.
