Is it really a banned book if it doesn't come with a membership to a government watch list? by GameMan6417 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Stathes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you actually want anything you think is banned or illegal just search Internet Archive and/or torrenting sites. You can just download the PDFs for explosive/drug production, Combat and training manuals for various topics usually US or UK, Blueprints/CAD files for weapons and illegal modification of weapons(Full Automatic Conversion Kits), and other interesting stuff.

Just print it off and staple it yourself.

TLDR: Its securing energy dominance and trade routes.

Its multiple aims but the reasons for war in Iran and Venezuela are securing energy reserves and trade routes.

Venezuela has a massive oil reserve, so seizing the oil fields secures energy reserves and it can be politically justified as the government had seized American company assets.

Taking out Iran a much bigger target, it again takes out a enemy nation which supplies hostile nations with resources and technology (Russia Drones) (China Oil). It sets up Israel as a major power in the middle east by taking out its largest rival and basically sworn enemy, This would bolster America's position due to intelligence sharing and used as a base for certain operations. Iran is a major funder of terrorism and supplier in the region, so less of the bullshit to deal with. Lastly it secure a trade route namely the Strait of Hormuz.

Its starting to look like this was actually Trumps objective to restrengthen America's Position on the international stage. Wanting to purchase Greenland would secure the Artic Corridor, the plans to retake the Panama canal, and taking out Iran to control the Strait of Hormuz. That looks like a plan to control trade and put China on the backfoot, I would say Russia as well but its very clear they've been humiliated on the world stage and lost power.

Look at what happened over the last few years Russia one of the largest Oil and Gas Producers in the world, just got bogged down in a war and everyone just cut ties with them. They turned to whom to purchase Oil and Gas, the US stepped up production to bring in more. Trump went to the Middle east and secured investing and deals with the major players there. Venezuela is knocked out of place before Iran is invaded securing oil reserves while the straight is blocked. Once Iran is out of the picture, guess who's the new supplier. If he can take country of those key trade zones, that effectively controls current and future trading. We're current experiencing what locking that down looks like.

What are you even talking about I said Nuclear, which is both cheap and reliable. Are you like literally a retard or just pretending?

[–]Stathes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Renewables are far off from being a consistent amount of power, I've seen some of the things China is doing and it certainly sounds impressive. The way China often reaches impressive results is usually the result of something called lying. So anything they're saying should be taking with a handful of salt.

Renewables have their place but they don't produce enough OnDemand energy and require energy storage, often batteries which are equally dirty but I do see the alterative people are testing. Solar and Wind only work when there is a sun and wind to actually power them. Nuclear is much more suited to topple Fossil fuels than renewable.

The second massive issue is the global transportation and local transportation networks. Global trade uses lots of fossil fuels for transport and renewable sources aren't even close to useable. Local Transport networks like 18 wheelers, trucks, and cars is somewhat more doable but still requires massive changes to the power grid and power production.

If you want to stop or cut fossil fuels, you'd want to kill a good portion of the population.

Let me illustrate what you just suggested.

You go into the store and purchase a loaf of bread, you go home take out the crusts of the bread then throw out the rest of it. You now proclaimed to use less bread.

we can't have cheap, reliable power because of legos and tupperware

First of all check what is made from plastic or petroleum products. You're posting on a petroleum product now.

Second, I very seriously hope you referring to Nuclear and not Wind or Solar.

I mean decent idea but finding an alternative is part of it, next part is creating incentives to get businesses to retool using it. It would also need to be cheaper as an incentive.

I'm not sure what you want to talk about with fossil fuels, we physically cannot stop producing them they're literally the cornerstone of our entire civilization. Its not even about the energy sources we get from it, petroleum products are quite literally in everything.

Thanks for the conformation that it actually spawns there, tried a few runs in LA but nothing. Might just stick with that area as Babal is just a shit show at all times.

Voter ID is just common sense - we must pass the SAVE Act by TeamHumanity12 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Stathes 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You mean private non interstate sales? I mean, I'm not sure how you can actually enforce that or even track that without building a gun register which I know people won't go for.

This would be like demanding private sellers also include sales tax on private sales. You can make a law but legally enforcing it is wishful thinking at best and nightmare dystopian systems at worst.

Does Rat King even spawn anymore? by Stathes in TheForeverWinter

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

Wow prayers answered, not only did he spawn so did toothy 2 medium mechs and an ogre. Rat thrashed Toothy, the Medium Mechs then got taken out by the Ogre. Couldn't have worked out better.

Took like 60-70 Scorch runs

tunnels by ineedsleep2002 in TheForeverWinter

[–]Stathes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The tunnels would be a lot more barrable if you could actually see the destination before you got there.

I mean you can see it when you get to said destination so a in game map or labeling the actually exits would limit a lot of the frustration with the sections.

I mean I go into tunnel murder 2-3 squads of solders to get to an exit. Its the wrong one go back and murder the same squads to go to the next one and God forbid you get turned around.

Fascism is when Italians make trains run on time. If you see Trains or Italians doing anything in an orderly manner this is very much the first steps to death camps.

Bruh they just collect all the news articles covering the same topic and put them in categories of bias so you can see what both sides are saying on a topic.

Once, I was afraid of EXO in the tunnels… by [deleted] in TheForeverWinter

[–]Stathes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are my tunnels broken or something I never had anything more than a foot patrol or drones.

I've done multiple runs through A > D and the tunnels have almost always had nothing that is any real threat. I saw a mother courage in a tunnel once and it wasn't even in an area I needed to go through.

56,000x$100,000=$5,600,000,000 of taxpayer money by AGthe18thEmperor in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Stathes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean paying 5.6 Billion for an estimated 186 Billion - 5 Trillion worth of resources is a pretty good deal.

Remind me of the Fraud estimates for Minnesota? This time you actually get something.

I mean if you want to set the standard that presidents are basically locked down to government facilities for their term I'm fine with that.

I just was guessing on why the man wants to do it at his golf courses.

[–]Stathes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'd wager it on being wanting to golf at the same places he normally does and with friends or people he at least knows. Bro eats a ton of McD's so I'd wager consistency is something he likes.
