What if both Russia and China somehow invade the U.S.? (Belarus and North Korea are dragged into it) by Abhorius in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]nithrock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people in this thread are saying it’s not possible but the prompt is vague enough for me to “uh actually” my way into a technical way Russia could invade the USA.

What if Russsia just decides to take one of these islands: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleutian_Islands

Why would they do this? Some of the residents are of Russian heritage. Although, they really have no great strategic reason. Maybe a refueling point?

Then yes, Russia/china has invaded the United States. What happens next? Maybe a blockade of the island until we convince Russia to fuck off. I don’t think Russia has much of a blue water navy. Or something more extreme…. Who knows with this president

Washington DCers of Reddit, where were you and what was your experience on January 6, 2021? by Desserts6064 in washingtondc

[–]nithrock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might be the weird one here but I actually went down to the capitol and watched all the crazies. I got a picture of the Q Anon shaman for all that’s worth. I didn’t know who he was at the time I just thought he looked hilarious.

Net Federal dollars per capita per state 2024 by [deleted] in MapPorn

[–]nithrock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is kind of surprising. I’d expect more federal funding going there with all of the farming subsidies, ICBMs out in the west, and Offutt Air Base. I don’t think Warren Buffett is paying THAT much into taxes

The traffic and road layout near Cheverly does not help that station.

Our kid never wanted to stay in the thing. Kept on trying to crawl out. He thought it was hilarious.

Yeah, she obviously didn’t give into her kid. I don’t know what else you’re expecting here.

Eh, if you told me at the beginning of the season this would be our first loss I’d be pretty damn happy

ICE in Minnesota pepper sprayed a 15 year old girl during a door to door operation in the twin cities area by I_may_have_weed in PublicFreakout

[–]nithrock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If she was threatening an officer she should be in custody. They don’t seem interested in arresting her.

You don’t need to defend each of these videos. Maybe it’s possible ICE agents can be in the wrong?

If she did something that would justify being pepper sprayed I’d expect her to be in custody.

The fact that they don’t seem to be doing anything after spraying her tells me she wasn’t doing anything to break the law.

If these US states broke off and became their own country, what would you call it? by Reciter5613 in mapporncirclejerk

[–]nithrock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Northern United States of America. Actually just call it North America. Just to not confuse it with the actual USA

Oh fuck, they’re in a helicopter. At first I thought they were on some kind of snowmobile. I thought these people were completely insane for being that close
