Both as in total number and just people from New Jersey.

Yeah this. Like it didn't activate in the Falklands War for a bunch of reasons, but it would've had the USA wanted to bomb and overthrow Argentina's government.

Which they didn't as it was an anti-communist military junta.

It might not have been ~~neurodivergence~~ Autism (or it alone). If he had OCD, the prospects of ships not returning might have caused significant distress (obsession) and going to check gives relief (compulsion).

I'm more interested how he was "cured".

A real leader would have black-bagged all the supreme court judges (maybe not the dissenting ones) the minute they made that judgement to prove a point.

I've always though a return of WW1 style bicycle troops would be cool in a piece of near future media. Like between fuel shortages, proliferation of EMPs and various ways to track and detect tech, armies start deploying them again.

Not to minimise the NLF who were the guerillas, but the Vietnamese had a formal military in the PAVN who were fighting the US and various allies. The PAVN turned out to be one of the most disciplined and effective militaries of the 20th century. Like the uniformed army of a former colony dog walked you dude.

Jake is regularly beefing online with chuds and red scare adjacent people (but I repeat myself).

A while back one of them unearthed a HD porn video Jake was in where two very attractive dommes do a bunch of stuff to him including make him eat his own cum at the end.

It was meant to be "this you?" own. But he was like "yes". And lots of people (like myself) were like "he's so lucky", "he just like me fr" etc

Having a “Jeffrey Epstein the New York York financier?” moment.

Jake Flores? The guy who ate his own cum? (Positive)

Apparently he's claiming Arce ordered him to do it, to boost his popularity because he and Evo Morales are having a factional battle for control of MAS.

I don't believe that, but it's a funny excuse, "I was just following (your) orders"

Also again allegedly they were calling each other husband and wife in texts, while planning to run away to another country and have a baby. Their lawyers defence is this is just jokes between friends. Just two gals joking about.

Taken with a grain of salt. But in China, there's old laws on the books for breaking up the marriage of soldiers by having an affair. I believe it goes both ways but controversially it has been used relatively recently to send a guy to prison for 10mths. (https://www.sixthtone.com/news/1718)

But apparently (I heard this on twitter but I'm trying to find a better source), there's a case bouncing around their various courts where a wife of a PLA soldier had an affair with a woman. And the judges are trying to work out if they recognise lesbian relationships on the same level as heterosexual, which would be a landmark precedent (albeit one that might send the woman to prison) or if they accept that lesbians are exempt from the laws against cucking soldiers.

And like if true it's kind of a funny set of possible outcomes. (Though they might just strike the law down too)
