bird food bathtub posted:If I got to be dictator for a day I think one thing I'd do is cut the DoD budget in half and use the part that was cut either straight in to the Department of State or stand up an organization specifically dedicated to improving things with drat near any other set of tools besides military intervention. We keep asking the military to be peace keeping forces or economic development agents or nation builders and it just doesn't loving work. Half the DOD budget is literally welfare. It's the government giving money to corporations to keeping buying things like subs, ships, planes, munitions, etc that we could realistically go without for a while, but Senators and House members would freak the gently caress out because it would cost X thousands of jobs in their state/district and well gently caress, we can't have actual socialism, so we'll do it the roundabout way where it costs so much more! Instead of having the government pay to retrain workers and educate them in other fields and paying them a salary while we do it, we'll keep handing wads of cash to the MIC who siphons off outrageous profits to the corporate overlords, which costs way more money and has the added benefits of lining donor's pockets!

If the money was spent on useful things, that might encroach on other companies' profits. So we might as well keep lighting it on fire instead.

The responses to this GOP tweet asking for donations gives me hope. I saw like one reply in support of Trump for every 100 against him. https://twitter.com/GOP/status/1221833250093654017?s=19

When Command & Conquer came out in 1995 the manual had flavor text about NOD backing the “United We Stand America” party in the United States and the “Albion First”! party in the United Kingdom. At the time it was an exaggeration that an evil cult would seek to undermine world powers by appealing to blind patriotism, but wouldn’t cause a second look if the present day rulers of US & UK used those phrases in a campaign ad.

Mideast peace plan is out. If you take the propaganda seriously and don't just assume they're puking it up for a media distraction, it took them three years to come up with "Two states, four year hold on new settlements, everything in place is totes legal" and then some poo poo about "east Jerusalem" that I still haven't figured out.

As far as the peace plan goes I was actually expecting it to be to the tune of: “Israel is good to settle everything, gently caress Palestinians” so technically this is a step up? But holy gently caress even expecting nothing they still make me angry with this.

This recent quake was south of cuba, northwest-ish of Jamaica. PR is a good step away. Doesn't mean the fault won't shift closer to them, just that this one shouldn't be as big a cause of concern as the cluster of quakes right off PR a few weeks ago. Now Cuba and Jamaica, yeah, probably sucks to be them right now.
