every good scifi novel hinges upon the navy being the ones that transitions into the branch of service that operates in space so this is hosed up that they're giving it to the air force what are they gonna do for loving boarding parties, send over air assault hooah nerds?

I would totally go so I could draw a big dong in the moon dust that won’t blow away. It would be the new “making a dong flight path” controversy but it’s worth the article 15.

Nah, they'll recruit the same people who become JTACs: the people who decided to join the Airforce just so they could be in the Army.

by the time we have actual spaceships needing enlisted crew, the United States definitely will no longer be the hegemon. Hopefully whoever actually is doesn't repeat our mistake of giving space to the air force

This is my problem with Sanders:

quote:

When asked by VPR’s Bob Kinzel if he’s worried that he might no longer best represent “the face of the new Democratic Party,” Sanders defended his campaign by invoking Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech — a pro-Black civil rights speech that was definitely not intended to give white men the confidence to run for president.

“We have got to look at candidates, you know, not by the color of their skin, not by their sexual orientation, or their gender, and not by their age,” he continued. “I mean, I think we have got to try to move us toward a non-discriminatory society which looks at people based on their abilities, based on what they stand for.”

He still does not understand that race, gender, and sexual orientation matter. They aren't secondary or subordinate to economics. He doesn't understand that a minority perspective is a positive attribute, not a neutral one.

He doesn't get that at this point, old white straight men need to sit the gently caress down and support or shut up.

The problem right now is that the follow up to that is “and therefore we need to elect a woman of color that prosecuted poor black weed users while toking up at home herself”

She isn't the only one in the race and his statement was tone deaf and privileged as gently caress.

I get that as an issue but it seems that standard only gets applied to Bernie Sanders. Biden literally gave Strom Thurmond's eulogy and got into politics to fight bussing, but the woke police have not made any arrests there. It feels tactical. Like how in 2016, suddenly republicans everywhere cared deeply about email security policies.
