I suspect more people than you think realise this is a potential outcome.

Assuming it boils over before there is another election (also assuming that's a thing that happens), military action is 100% a playable card.

It's a toddler with a nuclear tantrum button.

It's honestly not that much different in type than most nuclear powered nations.

The difference is "absolute last resort, and only maybe then" vs "they won't let me annex Greenland and are being mean to me"

Hyperbolic ofc, but illustrative.

What are the reasonable good alternatives though?

Americano is not even American

I mean that's a pretty specific phrasing.

I said it’s not American, as in it doesn’t come from the US.

Those are not the same things, but i know what you mean now, so thanks.

At this point, surely its just easier to say he deported 700k people than to actually do it, his supporters can't possibly care about fact checking his statements so why bother making them factual.

Also, i know it sounds stupid, but check it anyway....have you removed the plastic cover (if there is one ) on the cpu cooler side.

Hah, 3 whole comments, all of them nuts.

Another bot for the blocklist.

ah, my bad, that was two different responses, only the first line was directed at you.

i've edited the response to be clearer.

edit: for clarity

That's a lot of assumptions about the poster but I can see how you got there.


Below is a response to the idea of supremacy in general, not a response to @[email protected]

That seems like a particularly stupid and relatively indefensible hill to die on, but I suppose if you are going to plant a supremacist flag, you haven't really used well reasoned arguments to get there in the first place.

Why not just go with "I disagree with them to such a degree that I wish them and any like them, dead" ?

No need to base it on utterly and stupidly false claims.

how did you get to supremacist from that? genuine question

That's one of the reasons why you get delayed or cancelled, over-budget projects that go nowhere. ( another big one is corruption and general financial shenanigans ).

if you throw a lot of money at a problem/project that doesn't have reasonable management and competent understanding of where that money could work efficiently then you're asking for trouble.

Destinating more resources to that quickens and makes better that process, though, incentivating people to work on it and test it.

That is charmingly naive, in my experience.

I'm not saying more money wouldn't help, I'm saying throwing money at it isn't generally a stand-alone solution, which is what i think the person you were replying to was trying to say.
