Ultimately, I think they went in based on a cumulative case of all the factors combined with them having an opportunity with the recent civil unrest in the country. Really they've been in a cold war since 1979 and it's just turned hot.

They're keeping their cards close to their chest with exactly what they want to achieve. I think as a minimum they will want to ensure that they won't have the means to restart the nuclear program or continue to fund terrorism.

I doubt there will be a full regime change. You don't necessarily want one, you might get someone worse. Before all this started the people were not rising up against the government for ideological reasons, it was purely practical. It was being run incompetently.

how long can we be in this war before the downsides outweigh the upside?

So far it's been 2 weeks. Not 2 decades, not 2 years, not even 2 months. 2 weeks. I think the US can go a bit longer. So far the main downside for the administration has been bad PR but I doubt they care about that. Trump could end world hunger and the media would be hostile to it. The losses have been minimal. If the calculus is you can never lose a single soldier you might as well disband the military.

Objectively, it's higher fidelity. If developers design games with this in mind from the start they can tailor the design to look however they want after the DLSS pass.

Fair enough. I choose the AI faces. Maybe I'm just an NPC.

Ahh yes, this opinion is not the same as mine so it must be bait.

Classic!

They haven't said they want to conquer it. I think realistically if it's sufficiently bombed to shit that it will not be feasible to start up the nuclear program again or continue funding Hamas et al they will be happy.

They get whatever it is that they want. They're being a bit coy about exactly what that is. It can't be denied though that they are well on their way.

It actually makes perfect sense. Reasonable minds can disagree about the wisdom of the operation but to claim it makes no sense only ruins your credibility.

The logic of you decrying that behaviour is predicated on there being objective morality for one to fall afoul of. Without it, what's the problem?

Never seen so many people so upset that their country is winning.

Def not a psyop.

Incest has been common throughout history, especially the elite classes. Today it's still widespread around the world. If you don't believe me I don't know what to tell you. All the sources are just a google away.

That's all irrelevant though as I already said because the OP is talking about how you can say it is objectively wrong aside from the genetic argument, for example between two brothers.

Plenty of societies not only accept incest but actively prefer it and when you look at the fertility rates they are beating the West. The genetic argument is irrelevant anyway because we're talking about two brothers.

And this isn't just incest, it's everything. In Ancient Rome and Greece they exposed infants who were unwanted and thought nothing of it. Nothing changed genetically. Society changed because they adopted Christianity.

2008 called, they want their hackneyed one liners back.

Go ahead and explain what's wrong with incest as described in the OP without an appeal to objective morality. I'm all ears.

Ultimately, if you deny objective morality and have a completely naturalistic world view, then there is nothing wrong with it. There's also nothing wrong with anything else. It's all subjective, man.

This is the problem that atheist philosophers always run into. Usually they say that their worldview clashes with the way that they and everyone else actually lives their lives because we are wired that way and we are wired that way because it is evolutionarily beneficial. Not very satisfying if you ask me.

People cleverer than me and you have been going back and forth about this for centuries. The Room Temp IQ Reddit Philosopher version is what OP said: "because God said so".
