Do you get to use the fancy ninja sword missiles?
I really wanna stab that motherfucker but he’s a few miles away…
Just strap the blade missile to some missile. Shoot it with a bow or something.
Lol when did “unmanned Areal vehicles” become “remotely manned”. They are not manned that’s the whole fuckin point.
Remotely manned means that there is still a human in control and not a computer
The American Way: no one on the trolley tracks ever gets run over, because Ford and GM lobbied to get rid of them all to sell more cars
Just say there were terrorists in the trolley.
If there are 20 people in the trolley and 10% of males of fighting age are affiliated with an extremist group, the likelihood that at least one of them is Fuck You Stop Asking Questions
How would you proof the opposite?
disclaimer
I am not really defending drone strikes.
I unironically will.
and you will too, once you get away from your edgy “America bad” phase.
Some people have to believe they’re the good guy so badly that they’ll kill hundreds of thousands of people to prove it.
It’s not a phase, it’s based in reality. Take Vietnam and Iraq for example and the civilian casuilities that came out of that. And oh of course we lied about weapons of mass destruction.
Or the many, many coups that the USA was directly or indirectly involved in, like in nearly every South and Central American country (Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Nicaragua, Haiti, Panama, etc), or the “humanitarian intervention” of Yugoslavia, or any entry in that very big list of atrocities they committed.
Just because there are “worse” countries forcefully imposing their wants, that doesn’t make USA good, something that other poster fails to acknowledge.
It’s not edgy, it’s realistic and uncomfortable.
Literally the only Force that isn’t worse than the US is the EU. As long as they don’t want to step up and take the Mantle, the US “defending its Interests” and spreading democratic Values across the globe is the best Thing that can happen.
Do you think that the US defending its interests in Ukraine and helping them is a bad Idea? Or that defending their Interests in Taiwan and helping them is a bad Idea? Or did you think that the US ousting the Taliban and giving Girls an Education and Future was a bad Idea? Or that defending global Shipping from Houthi-Terrorism is a bad Idea?
stop with this edgy “America Bad” Mentality. It is not representative of our world.
Weren’t the Afghan Taliban backed by the US in a proxy war against the Soviets?
Yes, the above poster is a very patriotic idiot who doesn’t know anything about their own country. Not entirely their fault, however. America bad, after all.
I know a lot about my own Country. I could tell you about our direct Democracy, the Bundesbrief of 1291, the Rütlischwur, the Sondebundkrieg, the Reasons we didn’t join the EEA or the EU.
Or I could just tell you that I’m not a US-Citizen at all and you’re the one who draws conclusions off of nothing 🤷♂️
Have I spotted a Swiss person?
Yours truly
ahhh yes, the Soviets, the bringer of liberty and happiness. Funny how every Country that was Occupied by them talks about how it was the worst time they experienced and how they had / still have much higher suicide rates than other Countries. Truly, how could we (the free World) have opposed them?
It literally says “There is no problem”. All the examples you give are problems. You’re arguing for drone strikes for shits and giggles
Unfortunately, it’s always “defending US interests” which is the problem. Historically, US interests have been counter to strong local independent governments. The US has interests in low cost labor and natural resources. There are still a lot of people in the US gov. that are only incentivised to do the right thing if they get a major perk or kick back from doing it. I like to think that we’re getting more progressive, and stepping away from the abhorrent shit our grandparents did to South/Central America, but then we get shit like trump withholding support from Ukraine unless they are willing to smear his political rivals. Then it becomes clear that there is still a very influential “old guard” in the government that prevents the US from actually defending the welfare of the many from the benefit of the few.
