  1. Either that or you're just incredibly stupid. I'm not sure which is worse.
  2. You're a fucking liar.
  3. I'm glad @Thetexashammer is stepping up to replace Rex as the board lolcow
  4. Sure, that plays a part as well, but the main driver is Israel acting as the primary arm of our power projection in the middle east.
  5. Yeah for sure, and I think we should keep helping ensure their defense, and everyone else's in the region. It's in our best interest to do so.
  6. It goes even deeper than that, because their citizens enjoy many qualities of life that we don't have here in America, like free health care and education, because their military is heavily subsidized by us. If they suddenly had to fund their own wars, they would be unable to provide these services to their citizens, and their society would collapse very quickly. It's all a massive house of cards. I'm not saying I want it to collapse, I don't, but the leverage we hold over them should be a goddamn Sword of Damocles considering what they do with our money, but we just pretend it doesn't exist.
  7. No dude, this is wrong. They absolutely need our money and weapons. They could not sustain the conflict in just Gaza by itself on their own, much less wars on multiple fronts.
  8. It's perhaps an exaggeration because these things are always more complicated than that and it would take more than just a phone call realistically, but something like 70-80% of the ordinance used in Gaza comes directly from us. If our government decided that the genocide in Gaza was no longer acceptable, it would end, that's the bottom line. It was acceptable to the Biden admin, and it is acceptable to the Trump admin. We have infinite leverage over Israel, they have basically none over us, relatively speaking. We simply choose not to use it because Israel is effectively an American state and an extension of our hegemonic power. Palestinians in Gaza being subjected to a second Holocaust is simply not a hill worth dying on for our government until it is. And by the time it is, it will be far too late, just like it was with the first Holocaust.
  9. Who's saying we should abandon them, dumb fuck? Clean the cobwebs out from between your ears. Try to hide your bloodlust a little bit better.
  10. Anyone else think the wear and tear system is fucked? In dynasty, at least, it feels like most games my RB is a walking corpse in the 2nd half and usually doesn't get subbed in at all.
  11. Biden could have put a stop to this with 1 phone call. That is, perhaps, the most frustrating part.
  12. You're not fooling anyone you vapid piece of shit
  13. Rest in piss, dickhead
  14. It's just a matter of time, this time a year ago it's definitely political suicide, now that is mostly a smoke screen. Sadly, 2 million Palestinians in Gaza will probably be dead before it actually happens.
  15. It's the "military aged men" trope
  16. You are the stupidest person alive. Smash your fingers with a hammer so we don't have to read your shit posts anymore.
  17. It whips ass that the dude that repeatedly projects his own weird sexual fantasies with terrorists onto people that disagree with him thinks he's actually the well adjusted one lmao
  18. Sorry I'm high, I said "that woman" but clearly I know she's Vanessa Kirby
  19. It actually blows my mind that someone being unsure of what to do with one of his hands at a photoshoot causes someone to think he's trying to grope that woman lol
  20. It actually blows my mind that they basically confirmed a 30 year old fan theory in this episode. As far as I'm aware, no canon Star Trek media to date had yet even hinted that Trelane was probably a Q, much less that he seems to actually be Q Junior. I know they didn't name him in the episode, but that's clearly Trelane. And honestly, how many current Star Trek fans under the age of 50 have even seen The Squire of Gothos? That's some next level fan service. Bravo to the showrunners.
  21. You're fucking weird. Stop being weird.
  22. A Nazi, sure, but it was all of them. They specifically picked 20 outright Nazi influencers and lied about it.
  23. Why are you pearl clutching?
