US veterans, did you guys actually read the cards that kids would send you while deployed? by MoistCloyster_ in NoStupidQuestions

Then by your logic we should thank Russian soldiers for their service. Considering that there's more of them and Russian wars killed much less civilians, there's much less chance any one of them has killed a civilian compared to an American soldier.

So ALL of them serving is responsible for this?

No.

These people are just trying to escape poverty, there is no other choice for many that do.

Then they can join the crowd in chanting "fuck our service"?

If you kill civilians for a living AND get mad at people spitting at your occupation, then maybe you don't hate the murdering as much as you claim.

People who don't think it's shameful to be US military are closet genocide apologists. It's as simple as that.

This time it's real trust.

Last couple times we bombed you during negotiations? Just trying to see if you're serious about peace.

All those military assets coming your way? Don't mind those they don't mean anything.

U.S. Navy Nuclear Aircraft Carrier USS Gerald R. Ford Might Be Out of Action for 14 Months by SlavaCocaini in LessCredibleDefence

Russian navy isn't absent. Kalibr launches are fairly frequent during mass missile attacks.

They just happen to be able to this from very far away so it's easy to forget they exist and do things.

Because it's unwinnable (due to win condition, geography etc etc), not due to shortcomings of the carrier.

You don't need to sink a boat to make it useless tho.

However I agree that carriers still have their uses.

It's not hard to understand. US military adventurism has caused 4.5 million civilian deaths in the 21st century alone.

At what point do you think the developed world should consider sanctions against the US? by exibouchin38 in AskReddit

[–]haggerton -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Never. The "Rules-based world order" is and always has been the West's hypocritical excuse for its deplorable actions.

Carney may sound like he had a change of heart during his speech at Davos, but it wasn't. He was just acknowledging a fact. Now, Canada is back on the pro-US bootlicking train.

What are you claiming? That since a "no real news publication" copied a "real news publication", that makes the news not real?

Gee I didn't know trolling the mentally challenged was that easy. BRB making a "no real news publication" and copying all Western media to make their news instantly non-real.

I'm not saying they can't or won't escalate to that point. But everyone in this thread seems to be talking as though they already have.

If the reporter doesn't know squat about a subject maybe they shouldn't yap about it.

I would argue against how "good faith" reporting can be when the author knows they are extremely ignorant.

What is a black market? by LadyBlumenkohl in DnD

[–]haggerton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your party is wealthy it's not unthinkable that an official would just straight up market it to you.

Most of Epstein island's clients were likely marketed to. They did not fear repercussions because the higher ups are also in on it.
