  1. I know it will make you mad, but I ran the mental simulations and the only chance of impeachment happening could only start with the idiot vs idiot war. Kinda like how WWII could only end in German defeat if he invaded the Soviets.
  2. Damn right that shit is peak cinema now, I watch a lot of Space/Rocketry youtube and wonder how the grifters will react to SpaceX getting banned.
  3. She has really good lying skills for some reason, I can't put a finger on it but someone mentioned being a Westworld robot and it kinda makes sense, literally zero shame or principles. she might actually be the most competent member of this administration just on lying alone. Stephen Miller despite often being compared to Goebbels is the opposite, he could not give away a winning lottery ticket. The blown gasket is just not worth the risk.
  4. I literally read some moron on r/Con actually surprised the tiff would actually happen. What a bunch of idiots. One wants to tune out politics now boo hoo
  5. Over in Texags they are talking about how he made fun of them when it was the idiot battle with Mark May. Really how stupid are they? Writing that AD contract when they are about to cost cut, as if they need a special AD for that shit Every coaching search is pie in the sky. A sum designed to be rejected with low guaranteed NIL. They then say "we tried" and go for the cheapest coach possible.
  6. People need to start eating tacos in front of him, I know Donny is not as stupid as he portrays, just listen to him speak in the 80s and 90s it is an obvious idiot persona because his cult is brain dead stupid. They think that they are sooo in the know that they know that he is not a braindead idiot. HOWEVER the point should be made that we are not afraid of making fun of him in the open. The more riducule he gets the less likely an underling will obey an order from him.
  7. Russia has never been more weakened, their military was expected to be powerful and not only was it exposed as a paper tiger that even Estonia could repel but their entire near infinite soviet stock of armor is completely gone. Russia suffered the most humiliating hard military defeat possible, so much so that a mini NATO of Poland, Ukraine and the Baltics is more than powerful enough to repel any invasion from now to the foreseeable future, however they can probably still terrorize with glided bombs and drones, but that does not mean they can take any more territory. A simple analogy is that all the spearheads were dented and all they are left with are sticks
  8. JFC soft power is getting your allies to play along, it has NOTHING to do with power to threaten Putin
  9. Yes drones are 100% the future of warfare, the things they have done to the Russian Navy alone would pretty much means we need to drop everything and start over in a way.
  10. They are doing really well right now like scary well, the PL-15E that downed a Rafale was a massive earthquake in defense spheres, the AIM-260 is the comparable US missile, this is still in development meanwhile the Chinese export version not only has a confirmed kill but also against a state of the art SPECTRA jamming avionics. China is also about to pass the US in number of 5th gen fighters soon, and might beat the US in getting 6th gen ones ready. Meanwhile the only thing that could cause them pause is a regional alliance with Japan and South Korea and here is Trump pissing them off on trade.
  11. No, and slightly less, the informal agreement where the US pledged to destroy piracy and guarantee global shipping IS soft power but that is dead and gone after Trump . But no hard power is irrelevant see how those carriers did in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan, all lost wars. Also China's navy is now bigger numbers wise than the USN and will probably lead it 2:1 before I croak, tonnage is smaller but thanks to advancement in electronics and automation smaller ships are a GOOD thing. They have dedicated drone carriers now. sheesh thanks Trump.
  12. I had the discussion with some MAGA moron who swore up and down that MAGA would prevent the demographic collapse that SK and Japan are currently experiencing, as if Japan has not had kid bribing since the 1990s and better family planning policies as well The US was the premier power on one thing alone, soft power, that has essentially evaporated. What is left is the slow decline, if we are lucky a easter roman empire is the absolute best case scenario, over a west roman empire dissolvement.
  13. Yeah A&M really is unique in the futility department in 86 years 0 NCs in the big 3 sports, 1 runner up last year in baseball This is the league of their own. They are literally the most futile little brother out there Miss St is humiliated if they are compared to A&M.
  14. I really like V for some reason, maybe because I only had IV, V, and VI on VHS and liked them all, like seriously these scenes are pure gold https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cqbSNERnc0 The rest is admittedly terrible.
  15. Star Trek III is so devoid of real emotion though, like Kirk's only child dies, there is the reaction, and poof gone from existence. It wasn't till VI that they had to retcon a character change.
  16. I would also like to remind people that roughly 17 months ago, Aggie was excited that Bjork left after the Stoops fiasco, they celebrated it thinking that there was light at the end of the tunnel. In that short period since they hired Alberts, had the most humiliating coach poaching of all time, a historically putrid athletic year, and Bjork proceeded to win a NC after failing upwards.
  17. Aggie is the best and clearest evidence of superdeterminism, the universe may very well be scripted.
  18. It was really good game, and the one earlier in the day too, I legit did not know how it was going to end, usually with men's aggie you just know they are going to lose see the UCLA game that EVERYONE saw ending the way it did. But since the WBB team won a NC, I thought the ladies were immune, nope.
  19. Somebody posted the statistics above 7% was the rate of progress, that molasses pace is gone now if things can't be reversed it is too slow to get rid of fascism at this rate so we need to start over and denazify.
  20. In parliementary democracies the underperforming party sacks their leadership, the portuguese left party did just that, but in the US the democrats almost always love to lose because they are never forced to accept the consequences of their actions.
  21. Yeah that 15-8% is literally the delta of progress, that is why I do despair about Gen Z, if this cannot be fixed then the system is now 100% broken, they were supposed to be the cavalry, I am leaning more to the camp of starting over. .
  22. Yeah it is a tragedy that "academic" discussions can do so much political damage, while the ball of lard can say do anything he wants and get away with it. But to me reason and logic are the singular most important thing to maintain. I don't even think we need to shackled by them either, I don't need 6 sigma proof that we need to adopt populism, what we should never do is to abandon reason and just operate on pure emotion.
  23. Eventually I will, but it needs to be said now when it is time to learn.
  24. Well thanks to social media friends and family is no longer the limit, but if you are going so far as to call it a strawman you are wrong https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/43538369.pdf What would I say? "two incomes are better than one", but X forbid we ever say the smart thing
