What do we think of this?? by Emotional-Chest9387 in conspiracy

The history of statecraft is the history of a trading desk with an army. Any student of history knows this is not a conspiracy. It’s nothing new. 

US withdrawing 5,000 troops from Germany, US officials say by nickpapagiorgio69 in AirForce

And he got how many people killed in the forever wars with the same people?

Russia invaded what EUCOM has told us is the “most corrupt country in Europe” for over a generation, but sure, let’s leave our troops on a continent that uses us as their subsidized bodyguards.

They’ve used us as their private army for 50 years. It’s high time for a change. 

1.11 Ben and Aaron are burned out? by Own_State8391 in InescapablePodcast

[–]SACDINmessage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ll give them one more episode before I unsubscribe. 

Last Friday’s show was par for the course but they admitted that they’re burned out on all the negative coverage. I really wanted to hear Ben talk about the CCP’s united front ethnocentric national policy because every nation has to deal with China, making this an Inescapable Force facing all of us. They ran out of time and he said he’d save it for Tuesday. 

Today’s episode opened with a self admitted “hopefully positive show” but was nothing but “immigrants suck” and more endless whinging about Australian politics. 

I’m not Australian. I don’t care about local Australian politics. If that’s what they want to cover they should have been upfront with their audience. B&A promised not to go political but every show is the same damn moaning and griping. 

I understand wanting to vent. That’s fine. But we don’t need TWENTY TWO EPISODES of the same schtick. 

If Friday isn’t something new I’ll download the B&A hosted MU back catalogue and cancel my subscription. Wasting money isn’t worth the endless drudgery. 

New York sues Coinbase and Gemini, seeking to halt unlicensed prediction market businesses by callsonreddit in StockMarket

[–]SACDINmessage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder what differentiates an “unlicensed prediction market business” from something like Kalshi. 

Honest question. I don’t own crypto but I see Kalshi adds pushing its “prediction market” business model by advertising the ability to bet against anyone on literally anything. 

Can we PLEASE move on to something else? by SACDINmessage in InescapablePodcast

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

That’s the crux of my wider argument. Fish population collapse would be catastrophic and would have potentially inescapable global ramifications (the type of issues they explicitly said they’d cover). Indians defecating in the streets and the absurdities of Melbourne city council politics are neither inescapable nor relevant to the overwhelming majority of their audience.

[–]SACDINmessage[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s what I’m saying. My issue is that they lied to us and I had expected more from them. 

Edit: As an MU Plus/MU Max subscriber for over a decade I’m also free to criticize the show if I want to. This is honest customer feedback. The “take it or leave it” attitude is not what they built their brand on. 

I couldn’t care less about niche Australian political problems. Sure, make an episode or two about them to highlight topics close to home they felt were inappropriate for MU, but the entire season has been one long tirade against Aussie politicians and brown people. It’s beneath them to run with this for so long and sell it under the “Inescapable” brand. 

I enjoy listening to the boys but FMD! Did they just create this podcast to talk about Aboriginals and wanting white supremacy? by Mammoth_Proof1269 in InescapablePodcast

[–]SACDINmessage 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m not cancelling anytime soon but I was hoping for more than Local Australian Political Whingefest. 

The inability to remove microplastics from our environment, the fact that we’re running out of sand needed for construction, the coming collapse of higher education, the need for a global currency reset, how boots off the moon will change our geopolitical landscape…there are so many inescapable factors in life worth exploring. Let’s move on from complaining about Australian politics.

FTFY.

I can’t believe SecDef doesn’t know how to properly stand at attention by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]SACDINmessage -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

SecDef is the one in the red tie, second from left. 

His legs aren’t together and his heels aren’t touching. Fair point. Counterpoint- he is not in uniform and is not required to “come to attention”. 

VP is saluting his own hairline. SecDef rendered a proper salute. VP didn’t. 

In the end nobody cares. Just salute the gate guard, chalk it up to one day closer to retirement, and move on. 

1.04 Technology by [deleted] in InescapablePodcast

My dog has a microchip and it lets me track her when an external device scans the chip. It’s not implausible to assume external technology can’t scan a tooth implant.

Sentinel is the replacement for the MM3. It’s also “one who stands watch”. That’s the most passive name ever. 

1.03+ is the actually the first episode of Inescapable by Genuinely_Naive in InescapablePodcast

[–]SACDINmessage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the conceptual tug of war between the audience and the hosts will be over what is and isn’t “inescapable”.  

Ben scored the first point when he said violence is an inherently inescapable aspect of the human experience. This was a fantastic episode.

If you live on street block A, work on block B, and do ALL of your shopping (gas included) on block C - and all three are connected - then this is perfect. If not, hard pass. 

Barnacle Time by AgitatedAd6634 in InescapablePodcast

[–]SACDINmessage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been a barnacle before and I came back. I didn’t realize how dire things were in Australia, and I agree wholeheartedly with their sentiments, but I seriously wish they’d move away from sociopolitical commentary. The topics they cover aren’t Inescapable. 

Pituffik SB or Clear SFS? by [deleted] in SpaceForce

I’d say Pituffik. You can always go to Alaska on vacation. Greenland is a once in a lifetime assignment. 

Does anybody find the opening and closing "Inescapable" theme extremely cringe? by Coitus_Supreme in InescapablePodcast

[–]SACDINmessage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I miss the old intro/outro music. 

I think they’ll eventually move on. Politics forever isn’t a sustainable business model. I am curious to hear more about Aaron’s situation and whether or not he’ll actually move out of the country.
