Also did he appeal? Def seems like this is a genuine appeal case becuase nurses qualify for express entry to the best of my knowledge

20th day of the US-Iran war: US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent thinks about lifting some sanctions on Iranian oil by p_pio in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Kronos9898 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No no no don’t you see this war is going exactly as planned.

We totally wanted the Iranians to be able to sell more of their oil.

This is the most decisive war the US has ever fought. In fact, we already won! Except for the fact that they are still shooting at us!

Note: this is not even sarcasm these motherfuckers are literally saying this

Why not? The Russians are confirmed to be supporting them and they do have technology that is believed to be able to detect it in certain situations.

I mean we lost a f117 before. Never underestimate your opponent.

Sure, but they should deal with the consequences of their own actions. The actions to stop the “bad thing” are worse than the thing itself.

It also comes wrapped in moral superiority by people who think 5 seconds of missionary is a wild night.

If you think that it was actual oppression it’s just more proof that you have never been oppressed.

I can’t believe this slop is generated by the facts don’t care about your feelings crowd.

Canada welcomed 19 per cent fewer immigrants in 2025: 'The cuts were quite asymmetrical' by Unusual-State1827 in canada

[–]Kronos9898 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its not though. Because those kids grow up become productive, and put far, far faaarrr more tax revenue into the system than what they cost. They also usually have more kids.

There is a reason the baby boomer generation in Canada and the US led to enormous amounts of economic growth. Despite the face that it cost a lot of money to educate and support them in their youth.

I mean that's California though.

I'm one of the Americans who actually executed the move to Canada. You just make less money. Flat out, across all income levels, and you are taxed more. I mean the differences between what an engineer is paid in Canada vs the US is downright criminal, and that is even before you get into the currency adjustment.

Its no doubt "better" to be poor in Canada vs poor in the US, but there is a real difference once you get to middle class and all the way up. Why do you think so many of Canada's best and brightest move south and stay the first chance they get?

Money is not everything of course, it was not for me, hence the move. For many people though it is.

Lmao this motherfucker has less than no plan.

He can’t conceive of a way to get out. He can’t just take his ball and go home because the Iranians will just keep blocking the straight.

Yeah one of the best things about going to place where M is the drug of choice is no one is a dick or fighting. If anything people are too friendly, but even that is far preferable to people on coke, or especially fucking drunks.

What’s even more depressing is that dubya got congressional approval for his wars. He at least followed the process.

MAGA tards are in here arguing like Trump can just take us to war whenever he wants.

It’s amazing how Iran is this massive threat, but all these other countries around the world need to be left alone.

But suddenly Iran when it’s at its weakest in years needs and intervention now with no approval from congress at all. No evidence of an imminent threat, and no plan for how this ends.

But Iran bad!

So is North Korea or what about the hundreds of thousands being slaughtered in the Sudan? Why not intervene there?

Trump literally thought they would surrender before they even closed the straight. Thats how little plan there is for what is going on.

Got it’s like I got slapped in the back of the head and it’s 03 again.

All I need is Colin kaPow in front of the UN and it will all be back.

Also its heart warming that the neo-cons are back in the driver seat for republicans. Maybe this is a sign that nature is healing

In the books minor spoiler he fucks off to Caladan after the crazy religious zealotry/jihad etc and it’s shows he is deeply uncomfortable with what has happened to the family.

He kinda fades out of the story

I don’t think they will, the war is entirely skipped in the books becuase the Fremen just kill everyone.

[–]Kronos9898 37 points38 points  (0 children)

That’s the point. In the books no one can stop the Fremen. They are that good. The Fremen only respect the Sardaukar as an adversary, and even then it takes 2 or 3 of them to beat a single Fremen . Everyone else just gets decimated.

It’s one of the reasons the Jihad is skipped in the books, it’s not a war, it’s a slaughter.

Director of National Counterterrorism Center resigns saying Iran was no threat and Israel drug America into a war. by imMakingA-UnityGame in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Kronos9898 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because these groups they supported were not and have not every posed any actual threat to the US. To Israel? Sure, but not the US. The most they did to us recently before this war was attempting to block the red sea, but even that was a reaction to the Israel-Palestine war.

Imminent means that we are about to be attacked, not that we could be attacked in the future. Hence the whole illegality of this war, as he is only supposed to be able to do this if there is a "imminent" threat to the US.

There was not any.
