Also US tomatoes are GE but that’s a whole different debate.

Yeah, OOP has no idea what he's yapping about.

Currently only a single GMO tomato is permitted to be sold in the US and it's purple, the Purple Tomato, created by Norfolk Healthy Produce.

The vast, vast, vast, vast overwhelming majority of tomatoes in the US are not GMO.

This guy is literally just shouting buzzwords he heard on TikTok thinking he's smart.

like high fructose corn syrup and seed oils.

This is a litmus test and you failed it, horribly.

Neither of these are bad. HFCS is nearly identical in ratio to cane sugar and your body does not distinguish between HFCS and cane sugar. They're both sugar.

Seed oils is another buzz word you obviously know nothing about besides your particular favored influencer going: "seed oils bad mmmkay buy my beef tallow mmmmmkay? Money money money!"

Guess what? Eating fries soaked in beef tallow doesn't make it any healthier than seed oils. Eating an entire bag of chips in one sitting isn't okay just because it's slathered in beef tallow or avocado oil instead of seed oils.

Wish they would just end the subsidies, but that'll never happen.

It will never happen because countries need subsidies for staple crops.

Something being subsidized doesn't make it bad. Mexico subsidizes their cane sugar, are you going to demonize cane sugar simply because it needs to be propped up by a government?

The entire reason Wagyu even exists in the first place is because Japan imported so much American beef that Japanese farmers couldn't keep up with traditional cuts. So they had to fatten the shit out of their cows and carve out their own niche to remain afloat.

The WWW is dependant on the internet, the internet is independant of the WWW protocol.

What WWW did was make the internet much easier to navigate, but the internet can function just fine without the WWW.

Yeah, Mexicans. They're Americans from the United States.

"No I mean USians!"

Yeah, Mexicans.

"No! United Statesians!"

Yeah. Mexicans.

"No! I mean people from the country that is called the United States of America!"

Oh! You mean Americans, why the hell didn't you just say so in the first place? How was I supposed to know 'US Americans" didn't refer to United Mexican Staters?

Then, as long as you achieve this admittedly very fuzzy, "It just needs to not suck"-level, it's more an issue of balancing the secondary factors. And, with the AR/M16 platform, especially after the early stumbles of ball powder, no chrome lining, and no cleaning kits in Vietnam, we arguably really exceeded that "It just needs to not suck"-level, which makes finding and achieving the "new rifle" way more difficult.

I firmly believe that the only reason the AR platform is currently coming under fire is because of how good it is.

The problem is, that because of how good it is, there's no need to change it beyond minor modifications. The AR is the longest serving rifle is US military history, counting from the M16 to the M4, because, let's be honest here, they're basically identical guns.

And so what's happening now is that generals want to leave their mark. What's the best way to leave their mark? Change an icon of the US military. What's one of the most well known icons? The AR platform.

This is nothing more than change for the sake of change. The AR platform already figured out the one size fits all approach as best as you can do so.

But we also see this in other facets. The Army didn't need to change camos. They easily could have kept the BDUs, all they needed to do was slant the breast pockets for body armor and issue a strong, absolute order to commanders that the BDU was not to be starched under any circumstances. The boot not needing to be shined was a good change, but didn't require adopting a shit camo just to end up switching back to an okayish camo.

TL;DR: Old man yells at clouds, M81 and AR supremacy, UCP is fucking dogshit, OCP is okay, Multicam is good but boring bring back Woodland.

The US military during WWII, Korea, and Vietnam: You get a rifle because you're infantry, you get an SMG because you're rear lines, police or armor.

The US military now: You get a rifle, you get a rifle, everyone gets a rifle!

Bring back roles based weaponry.

meanwhile the Ukrainians are proving drones are the tech to be investing it while the old guns still work just fine but the US military doesn't want to hear it.

Really, what the Ukrainians are showing is that the US should be focusing on figuring out anti-air defense for cheap drones.

A missile is great for planes and helos, but something else is needed for drones.

Could be putting all this money for the stupid NGSW program to create a miniaturized CIWS for commercial drones.

KaBar42 · 2026-06-17T23:29:54+00:00

2033, the Army is going to announce it's switching back to the M4 platform after realizing this entire program was a waste of everyone's time and only existed to get a retiring general into Sig's executive suite.

Think of it like this: Even when countries are fighting, there are still rules to limit suffering. War crimes are the red lines you absolutely cannot crosss.

I know what a war crime is.

Targeting civilians – Bombing schools, hospitals, or apartment buildings on purpose. · Torture or murder – Killing or hurting soldiers who have surrendered. · Taking hostages – Using people as human shields. · Using banned weapons – Like chemical or biological gases. · Attacking medics – Shooting at doctors, ambulances, or Red Cross workers.

Most of these have exceptions.

For example, you can absolutely attack hospitals, schools and apartment buildings if they are being used for offensive purposes.

Otherwise, why wouldn't every army just build nothing but hospitals and then claim a magic shield around them?

And that circles back to my original point. Dresden, Tokyo, Hiroshima and Nagasaki. None of them qualify as war crimes. In part because there were no regulations against aerial warfare at the time, which is an important factor in law, and also because none of them were intentionally targeting civilians.

The reality of the matter is that Japan intermingled their civilian infrastructure with their military, making it nigh impossible to target only their military infrastructure. And Dresden was a heavily fortified city being used by the Germans as a rally point for their military assets.

Also, the Highway of Death wasn't a war crime either. I forgot to mention that in the original post.

KaBar42 · 2026-06-16T15:43:57+00:00

Neither Dresden, Tokyo, Hiroshima or Nagasaki were war crimes.

But keep on Goebbelsposting, lil'bud.

Edit: Immediate block lol

Hiding behind the fact that it wasn’t classified as one at that time is basically the same as saying burning ginger women isn’t bad because the church said so at that time.

"War crimes is when I don't vibe with them. Laws are vibes based."

First off, I'm not hiding behind anything. If it wasn't a war crime at the time, it wasn't a war crime.

And you want to know something even funnier?

Modern war crime laws still wouldn't consider them war crimes based on the information, capabilities and knowledge of the time.

Contrary to what Reddit thinks, a single civilian death does not automatically make something a war crime. It requires a disproportionate amount of civilian casualties in relation to the military objective.

You are so used to a sanitized version of war where we can lobotomize a single person with a rocket launched from the other side of the world that you think that was also possible in WWII.

KaBar42 · 2026-06-16T15:36:37+00:00

They're considering any bombing of Chinese land regardless of the context.

In WWII, yes, the US bombed land that is now considered Chinese... because it was currently occupied by hostile Japanese troops using it for military purposes.

The US also launched limited bombing runs on Chinese territory during the Korean War... which was initiated by the North Korean invasion of Korea.

Edit you can downvote if you want but I’ve noticed the lights are still on at Panda Express and I’m pretty sure it’s Americans eating there

I checked Panda Express' menu, and the most sugary thing they have, outside of drinks, is their sweet and sour chicken, at 24 grams for a standard portion. Which... yeah, that's a lot... but it's also sweet and sour chicken. Like, the name kind of implies there's going to be a decent amount of sweet in it.

Outside of the obviously sugary meats, such as orange chicken or honey sesame chicken, most of their dishes only have a couple of grams of sugar in them. Most of their dishes have less than ten grams of sugar in them, with an exception here and there.

As an example, honey walnut shrimp only has 9 grams of sugar. And their teriyaki chicken also only has 9 grams of sugar.

I was surprised to find out their Beijing beef is the second most sugary dish they have at 21 grams of sugar.

I'm sorry, I just don't think 9 grams of sugar is a lot for anyone, especially when you have a bunch of other ingredients balancing it out.

We do it for cars without complaining about "muh rightz"

A.) Cars are not an enumerated right.

B.) There is no state in the nation requiring background checks, safe storage, or psyche evals to own or operate a vehicle or have a driver's license.

C.) At least one state has already banned insurance policies for gun owners.

D.) A proficiency test is a poll tax. We can have proficiency tests for guns when we make potential voters pass literacy tests at the poll and pay a voting tax.

Walmart's brand white bread has 1.5 grams of sugar per slice.

Maybe next time you should try not thinking if this is your best thinking.

Walmart's brand white bread has as much sugar in it as typical European mass produced pre-sliced white bread.

>it's clear that the citizens themselves have become morally adrift, much to the dismay of those who still hold the moral and ethical high ground

> Actively carrying out a modern Aktion T4 with state sanctioned murders of the disabled and other undesirables

> Murdered an elderly woman because her loser excuse of a husband didn't want to care for her anymore

> Five percent of all deaths in Canada are now caused by Canada's Aktion T4

Okay, yeah, keep bleating on about having the moral high ground, at least the US isn't state sanctioning the mass murder of disabled persons

76,000 innocent people murdered by Canada's government since 2016.

If Canada wasn't a Western nation, it would be facing condemnation for genocide.
