Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
It's just the policy of "if you can't beat them, sanction them." It's telling that the US can't get into a full on war with a developed country head to head.
the US Navy basically admitted defeat by Ansarallah when the state dept started offering big concessions to Yemen in exchange for them ending the blockade
can't even win a minor naval battle against a wartorn nation without a navy
"Sure, we had to call it quits because of Yemen's drones, but let me have a go at the world's largest manufacturer of drones. I think I can win."
China has the ability to produce 8x the number cruise missiles in the entire US armory every week, so obviously we can crush them in a conflict.
USA in WW2: liberty ships aren’t pretty but we’re making three a week.
USA in WW3: this overweight and over-engineered wunderwaffe will overcome the enemy
