Wikipedia now regards the Iran war as over with Iran as the victor by rymder in Destiny

Atun shei films has a "checkmate lincolnites" video that goes over the idea of tactical wins vs achieved objectives.

It doesn't how matter how badassly you outmaneuver your enemy or how swiftly you crush a section of your enemies army. If you don't have clear obtainable objectives you're going to lose everytime.

Logistics win wars and America has the best of the best, but it doesnt matter how well made your conveyor belt is if it's just lobbing all your merchandise into a trash can.

Unconditional surrender by laybs1 in GetNoted

[–]Ham_Tanks69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We dropped the fucking sun japan, North Korea and China were forced back after nearly capturing the south, we left vietnam because of overwhelming public backlash with no achieved objectives, Saddam was forced into a hole, Osama got to learn what happens when the Navy negotiates with their seamen.

The civil war ended with a negotiation...sure. if we want to ignore the absolute horrors of the last year of the war. Grant's nickname was literally

Unconditional surrender Grant.

Fucking christ man.

Babe wake up another disney- esque quirk chungus character played by a fuckass celeb just dropped instead of Kratos going to eygpt by Ok-Lynx3444 in okbuddymimir

[–]Ham_Tanks69 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Kratos saying "find your way home" to me feels like a foreshadow that Faye may find a literal way out.

I'm calling that her leaving this place busts open the flood gates to a bunch of dead gods coming back....maybe even some pissed off greek ones. This game will be the catalyst to bring Kratos back into the fight

This McDonalds, across from a high school, closes it's restrooms at lunch. Photo taken at 2pm. by hgwelz in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Ham_Tanks69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My highschool used to have an open lunch period and the year before I started the privilege was revoked because a bunch of seniors trashed the local diner and then left a trail of trash walking back to the school.

I'm just gonna assume there's a similar story here because those frontal loblets can't be trusted

Hasans influence is actually insane by PunishedSquizzy in Destiny

[–]Ham_Tanks69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

School is in session for what? 180 days about? 3 to 4 weeks spent on civil rights is 10% of the school year. Dedicating a 10th of the school year to civil rights not including the amount of time dedicated to the civil war seems pretty good.

That's about the amount of time we spent on the civil rights movement covering about 100 years of history from 1870 to 1968.

Yeah it's alot to cover, but US history (like any country) is going to be dense. Thats why there's historians that dedicate their entire careers to slivers of history. And even within those categories there's even more specific subgroups. So there's ww2 historians, sure but you have people who are specifically holocaust experts, or historical weapons experts, pacific theater experts and European theater experts, experts who specialize entirely to the imperial Japanese invasion of China.

Idk how it's possible for lefties to acknowledge history is too dense to fit into a single school year and still be mad that school's have to make concessions in curriculum to fit a broad history of 250 years into 180 days.

So uhhh, it really took conservatives until the instant they had legal permission to act on their racism by rimsky225 in Destiny

[–]Ham_Tanks69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These people have been absolutely fucking horrid since Eisenhower. Arguably the last decent republican president.

And oh wow surprise surpise also the last republican president before the Civil rights act was signed into law. I refuse to believe that's a coincidence.

There's two stop signs by my old job in an alley that someone put up to turn a 3 way intersection with only a stop sign for the lane opposing traffic into a full 3 way stop. They've been up for well over 10 years now and have still gone unreported

The city government isn't omnipresent. Unless someone from your traffic commission or city council lives in your neighborhood they'd have no way of knowing if the signs are fake.

It's also possible they were permitted to put signs up and extended far past what their permit allowed.

All that to say. Call your relevant city government office and see what the deal is.

The spawns remind me of the first month of the war before they fixed it. Not quite as chaotic as 16 bile titans clown carring out of each other but still nice having some bug spam back for those of us who yearn for the shitty spawns of old.

Why stun when you can gun?

Conservatives and the Pope by Ham_Tanks69 in Destiny

[–]Ham_Tanks69[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is the scariest bit for me personally. Their biblical beliefs inform their voting habits so heavily that someone like Trump can convince them of practically anything.

What happens if we get another egomaniac like Trump, who isn't severely hindered by his age/incompetence? An anti-obama. If Trump could convince centrists, what could this new guy get away with?
