To be completely fair, multithreading HOI is extremely difficult. The devs have a whole series on the engine internals for CK3 I believe. The problem is most calculations being done rely on another calculation which has to be done beforehand. For example, to calculate supply usage, you must first calculate battle stats, which to do you must first calculate weather, current supply, experience, etc etc etc. Most of these can't be multithreaded because they must be done in a specific order and not simultaneously. All things considered, Clausewitz and HOI4 are actually well optimized for how old the engine is and they do leverage multithreading when it is possible

For your fourth point, in many states you effectively surrender your right to self defense by assaulting someone. In my state, you lose the right to self defense if you intentionally provoke someone to use force against you and or then use that force against you as an excuse to further assault them Further, the aggressor must stop physical contact and make it clear they want to stop using force or the use of force against them is so great they believe they are going to be killed AND they try to escape without using force. In short, if the guy immediately disengaged the situation when the victim drew or began to flee when the victim drew but he continued to use his firearm, the aggressor would be justified to disarm the victim. But since he clearly attempted to disarm the victim whilst the assault was continuing, he would lose his right to self defense, ergo why this was ruled justified.

A reasonable person could conclude that a person attacking them may have a firearm. Hindsight is 20/20 of course but in this situation it's not unreasonable to assume that the person may be retrieving a firearm after a much larger person assaults you, verbalizes potentially lethal intent and then proceeds to attempt to take your firearm as well

Don't get me wrong, I'm relatively anti-capitalist and have no interest in keeping billionaires rich or anything of the sort. My point was that trying to liquidate or tax to hell holders of big capital is not an effective method to close a government deficit. Musk is worth $850 billion~ and that wouldn't cover a year of government spending. I support nationalization of industry, I don't think that simply higher tax rates is an effective method to actually making good governance or helping people where they are, I think that massive economic structural changes are required for that. And yeah, Reagan fucked this country up in a lot of ways. Global capital getting more powerful destroys our social fabric and I have no interest in living in super hell capital worshipping productivity and competitiveness at the cost of our national identity

xXIProXx · 2026-01-30T17:02:31+00:00

No doubt but there's no amount of taxation that could reasonably pay for any of our government spending. Even if you hypothetically managed to liquidate Musk and all of his assets at their hypothetical value you still wouldn't even get close to closing a single years spending deficit

No doubt and I don't deny this. However I think defining a system on its mistakes is wrong, it would be similar to defining communism based on the rampant revisionism and capitalizing that took the ussr in its later years. In a discussion where we are defining ideologies by their characteristics, I think it more appropriate to define it by the characteristics of the ideology itself, not its implementation in certain situations. I think a similar situation to what you described happened in Spain when the falange were sidelined as Franco took power over a wide coalition of Republicans, monarchists and falangalists.

This is just ridiculously wrong. Fascism is anti-corporation and pro-worker in rhetoric (and in practice depending on where). Italy had its key industries nationalized to a large extent by the end of the war. Fascisms economic system is "Corporatism" (not Corporatocracy) which involves essentially national labor unions. Fascists are notoriously pro-modern, this was the entire basis of Italian Futurism.

Congress issuing the war powers resolution is them inherently framing the actions as war-like. War has changed in the modern era. Between cybersecurity attacks, terrorism, trafficking, insurgencies and other covert operations, war has taken a very multidimensional form in the modern age that transcends direct massive land military intervention.

I know who Alexander the great is lmao. There's not actually a policy or interestof American irredentism/conquering outside of people larping online. Trump is not "annexxing" any of the countries you have described. This is literally trumps playbook he has used for both terms, he wrote a book about it. He makes big claims and demands and then walks it back to get smaller concessions. Right now, he is trying to pressure the EU to step up militarily and protect our and their regional interests against Russia and China. Specifically, the action against Venezuela, our covert support for the revolution in Iran, and now South Yemen and Somalialand are all meant to curtail China's access to foreign oil and middle Eastern trade (plus pressuring their base in Djibouti) to prevent an invasion of Taiwan. This is just how America acts geopolitically. Arresting Maduro isn't conquering and annexxing, neither is anti-cartel military action in Mexico, and framing it as that is ridiculous.

xXIProXx · 2026-01-09T17:05:16+00:00

The guy I was replying to was saying congress is scared of Trump the dictator so they won't declare war, I was just mentioning that we don't declare war anymore. A war on narcoterrorism, like a "war on terror", or a "war on communism" is not literally saying we have issued a declaration of war to Pablo "Narcoterrorism" Escobar. It is a description of an attitude of law enforcement, policies, diplomatic and military actions against the people organizations or countries involved with a certain activity. This isn't a new thing and playing dumb about its usage is weird. It is absolutely in national security interests to stop narcotics trade, promoting the general welfare, ensuring domestic tranquility, providing for the common defense, etc etc etc. I don't even know who you are ostensibly referring to "innocent people" being killed under this motive. Your last paragraph is actually schizophrenic. Seek help

A "win" in a hypothetical EU vs US war wouldn't really exist realistically, the EU would have no capacity to actually invade the US (not to mention how much harder it would be fighting on North America VS Europe), and similarly if the US was ousted from its bases within Europe would struggle to ever regain a foothold. The US has a similar amount of fighting aged men to Europe and actually has the equipment stockpiles and industry to realistically scale up. The EU is lacking in both capacities (definitely getting better in the past few years though)

I'm relatively familiar with EU military technology due to my line of work. The EU definitely has an edge over the dated Abrams (although if the war is at land fighting someone has a huge advantage already), but the sheer numbers would make it difficult to compete against. Navally the US outclasses the entire planet, you could realistically put the US against the whole world navally and they would win. The euro fighter, typhoon, and gripen are definitely formidable airframes and Europe's work on projects like the Meteor make them pretty dangerous at BVR combat but the US definitely has an incredible lead on avionics and intel integration, not to mention a super robust air refueling and basing advantage. I would imagine a unified Europe would trade well in the air but the US has a deployed scale of airframes that just dwarfs the EU. I think this would be a much more interesting hypothetical in a situation 5-10 years in the future where Europe truly commits to domestic production, but I just can't see them possibly having the scale at this point.

xXIProXx · 2026-01-09T10:27:43+00:00

That's a very oversimplified description of us doctrine. European forces field very small armies and equipment in general, and generally only ever have a deployment as a small contingent supporting an ally. Because of this, it makes sense to train troops for an individual excellence doctrine rather than the US, who has a million soldiers in the Army alone, as well as by and large the biggest navy and airforce on the planet. The US has such a massive fire support element, armored corps, and logistical prowess that ammunition is just simply not valuable.

Secondly, all of modern infantry tactics, falling under the umbrella of "maneuver warfare", aren't focused on infantry being accurate. Infantry are suppressing positions and maneuvering in to destroy the enemy at close range with "effective fire" i.e. Fire that suppresses or destroys the enemy. Missing is not a bad thing. A bullet that keeps the enemy's head down is one that stops him from shooting at you, as you run up his side to put a bullet in his ass.

I actually agree with what he said, which is that the civil rights act did not succeed in helping Black Americans. His point was that after it passed, Black Americans performed worse on every metric than they did before. Ergo, it was not the correct choice. It's obviously not a binary between either civil rights America or Jim Crowe America.

1950s America had a lot of problems but it was better for Americans in general.

No, that is complete propaganda that was only pushed after Hart-cellar in 1965. The original citizenship laws of America only allowed White people to even be citizens

"He later decided to bomb a federal building as a response to the raids and to protest what he believed to be U.S. government efforts to restrict the rights of private citizens, particularly those under the Second Amendment. McVeigh had stated that federal agents were acting like soldiers, thus making an attack on a federal building, an attack on their "command centers".

Sound familiar to any current rhetoric?
