/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

  • Selling tools that kill people, knowing that they are dangerous, should have consequences.

    Would the world really be a worse place if Sam Altman were tried for murder? What's the problem?

  • It doesn't sound like people would bend over backwards to give me a job. I work in a factory and live in a trailer. They bend over backwards to give rich people jobs, and it has literally nothing to do with being queer. You're getting mad about gender, but you should be mad about inequality.

    Just as planned.

  • Hot take: Saying Americans don't fight back against the US because they're comfortable is incorrect and harmful to the left.

    Jump

  • It's not comfort, but they have something to lose i.e. three jobs is better than no jobs. They're keeping their heads down to preserve what scraps they have, because they know it can all be taken away if they don't behave. It's a very effective system of control.

    At least, it's effective as long as there are jobs.

  • The difference, here, is that the wars were popular in the beginning for Bush. The people wanted war in Afghanistan and Iraq, because the regime put in the effort and spent the time necessary to propagandize the population. The wars became unpopular.

    In this case, the war started unpopular. That's the difference. Wars aren't inherently popular, there needs to be a mass mobilization of the propaganda networks to drum up support for war. They have the whole thing backwards, they're forcing the war on us and the pundits are trying to convince us its good after the fact. That absolutely won't work, it's all downhill from here.

  • Right now, Iran doesn't have to set every ship on fire. The mere threat that they could has paralyzed the insurers.

    If the insurance was backed by the US they could eat the risk for the sake of keeping shipping open. Iran would be forced to attack every ship, and that would be unsustainable. Then again, like I said, that only maybe reopens the Strait. It's like you said, crews would mutiny if they all knew any voyage could be their last.

  • The War on Terror had a massive, long-term propaganda campaign behind it to win public support. They didn't bother this time. The media are trying but they didn't let the propaganda campaign cook long enough, so actual public support is very low.

  • Also, it has more to do with insurance than Iran's actual force projection.

    The only way the US could maybe reopen the Strait is if they backstopped all insurance with direct government funding.

  • The double tap contradicts this. They waited for a response before hitting again, which implies eyes on the site.

  • It's important to me, a trans person, that I'm allowed to take my medicine, use the bathroom that aligns with my gender, and be addressed with my chosen pronouns. But I don't matter to you, I'm just a freak and the source of your problems.

  • He's actually a really interesting character trapped in a mediocre manga.

    He was one of the leaders of a revolutionary peace movement in a county wrecked by one of the world wars, and was on the path to making peace with the leader of his country before one of the great imperial powers sabotaged their potential alliance and tore their country apart in civil war. He's a withered husk in the picture there because of an injury he sustained during that betrayal, and his revolutionary peace movement transformed into a plan to acquire WMDs to enforce peace and stop the next world war.

  • They get a bunch of money and guns, and can then turn around and use the money and guns in whatever way they want. That's bad for the region and the people living there, but mercenaries don't really care about that.

    Also sometimes they get to become warlords.
