I guess. It’s frustrating that it takes so long and involves so much suffering.

Despite the deep pockets and general indifference to casualties, I think that the American populace will react to sudden large losses. Like, we collectively don’t seem to care if 3 thousand US troops are killed during a prolonged engagement lasting years. But if 3 thousand died in a single event, like a ship sinking, people would be fucking pissed. A lot of that anger would be channeled into a desire for retaliation. Some of it would also be directed at the leadership that put that ship in harms way.

I agree. We fucking suck. Maybe some kind of coalition of nations can build a meaningful opposition to us.

If we’re talking about the US, then yes. 100%. It’s already underway.

Fuck the United States of America and all its feckless citizens too. I say this as a US citizen.

I agree. At some point someone has to figure out a way to go after the US. I don’t know what that is.

I know. I just want some one to figure out a way to defend themselves against us.

I am fully aware of this, and no, I don’t want to see a smaller country get crushed by the US war machine. I just want to see the US take losses at some point. I’m hopeful that some smaller power will figure out a way to actually defend themselves and to actually hurt us.

I hope one of the nations that we are bullying will defend themselves. I’d LOVE to see a US F18 go down. Shit, I’d like to see a carrier go down.

And the UN will do exactly nothing, because it’s an entirely compromised organization that’s beholden to the United States.

Can I ask a dumb question? Even if this was true and for the sake of argument we assume that the dude is an Iranian propagandist of some kind, so what? Why does that justify removing the account?
