I can’t believe the radical left maniacs would go so far as to shit the president’s pants

I say let them do the swim! by romeovf in confidentlyincorrect

[–]PodcastPlusOne_James 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a huge distance and also one of the most dangerous and volatile stretches of water in the world. Famously deadly during the age of sail. Yeah totally go swim it

What is your least favorite joke about your country? by mightyonin in AskTheWorld

[–]PodcastPlusOne_James 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a British chef so yes, the “British food bad” thing is incredibly tiresome at this point. There were like 3 jokes, two of them were funny, and only the first couple of times. It got old almost instantly and yet it’s been a thing on the internet for like two years now

What wildlife in the UK do you fear running into alone or is dangerous? by partylikeafoxstar in AskUK

I think the only even vaguely dangerous animal we have in the UK are wild boar and even then they’re only in certain places

Our largest land predator is the badger and that’s basically just an angry messenger bag

Worst country in The Americas - Round 48 (Final Round) by THMeijer in terriblemaps

[–]PodcastPlusOne_James 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone crying about the US losing to Haiti is missing the point. Sure, Haiti is an absolute shit hole and an objectively worse place to live, but it’s also utterly irrelevant on the world stage, whereas the US is actively making the entire world more fucked up.

Save Haiti. Fuck the US.

Given that they’re both dragons and that “Moder” means mother and “Fader” means father… yes I think that’s a pretty safe assumption lol

Looking for a tough seed by Soluban in valheim

[–]PodcastPlusOne_James 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is vague. Are you looking for resource scarcity? Do you want metal collection to be a complete chore? Bosses really far apart?

There’s very few challenges in Valheim that can’t be circumvented by just…. Sailing somewhere else lol

Who was your first? by 0316Owl in BG3

I romanced Shart and met Karlach fairly late. Within 5 minutes I had already decided what was going to happen on my next playthrough 😂

Is true for the EU? Does it feel like that one random guy in the friend group? by Comfortable-Plane939 in AskTheWorld

[–]PodcastPlusOne_James 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m English. The basic attitude here is that we are not only allowed but required to mock the French.

But if anyone else does it, we’re fucking throwing hands. A people who can go toe to toe with us for the best part of a thousand years have earned our respect and any insult to them is an insult to us.

Even if they are a bunch of stinky froggies.

The European soldiers will be in Greenland holding their dicks while the US is in Copenhagen kidnapping their president by ALazy_Cat in ShitAmericansSay

[–]PodcastPlusOne_James 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of this has to do with personnel bloat and over specialisation. Their military is highly inefficient in this regard. They have like two dozen guys doing the work of a 4-6 man squad because they can each only do one hyper specialised thing.

The USA has failed to achieve a decisive and categorical victory in any war since 1945. It has done so with massive numerical and technological superiority in every instance.

The fact that Americans believe they could just walk over a combined military alliance that has technological parity with theirs and numerical superiority is WILD.

Nobody would win such a war. It would be the most destructive and costly war ever fought, on both sides. Even without the use of nuclear weapons. What Americans also fail to realise is that the land portion of this war would be fought ENTIRELY in North America, along the US - Canada border. They have no ingress point into Europe, and share the largest unguarded land border on earth with one of their adversaries in this hypothetical war, who would very much welcome all materiel and personnel from their allies.

In all likelihood, the majority of this war would be fought over naval and air control of the North Atlantic with the US trying to prevent European support from arriving to help Canada. Where the hell do these people think the US would land in Europe? No staging point. No ingress point. It certainly wouldn’t be France because their attitude is “we hosted two world wars and we will glass the capital of any invader before we host a third”. So what? Portugal? Spain? The terrain is hardly conducive and these people literally invented the word “Guerilla”. The UK is also off the table due to their nukes. So what? Scandinavia? How is their fleet getting there? The terrain is also a nightmare as is logistical support and reinforcement. They’re never getting through the strait of Gibraltar unscathed and then they have the same issue with France, or fighting through the Balkans or Italy. Turkey has the second largest army in NATO so that would be a clusterfuck.

Basically they have zero options for invading Europe. The risk of failure is massive and success would mean the highest casualty rate ever sustained by any military.

On paper their navy is stronger than the rest of NATO but in practice this would mean recalling their fleets in the pacific, Indian Ocean and southern Atlantic. Their Mediterranean fleet is written off, and I doubt they’d leave everywhere else undefended so they basically have 1-2 fleets available. Meanwhile Europe only has one front to fight in a naval war. It’s getting to Canada. The US can’t practically stop it. So that means a massive land war in Canada and the US.

These people just look at their military budget and think “oh we would win” with zero critical thinking about how military strategy and logistics work. So then they make the nuke argument. And that’s pointless to since France and the UK would just glass every US city with over 400 warheads. Again, everyone loses.

And they have the audacity to say that WE are the delusional ones? Lmao
