dyer owns, the whole War series is worth a look, with an understanding that he's drawing on anthropology that's hilariously outdated even in the 80s, but I think a lot of what he says about modern warfare is still relevant

Kubrick being the absolute genius he was, was fully aware of what he was doing and even got R Lee Ermey to go full onboard with the movie being a massive piss on the military

Every marine i've worked with had to do everything by the book. You couldn't take a shortcut even if you could prove to them it worked and would save time.

im glad someone is finally documenting all this stuff because no one really knows about it in canada, it just occasionally pops up in the news and the liberals tend to just throw up the "Russia disinformation!" smokescreen if anyone gets critical about their relationship with these psychos

there are people with all kinds of abhorrent views on SA including making excuses for democrat immigration detention, american military interventions, etc. but the great thing about the consent manufacturing ramp up toward china is people do the state dept’s work for free and dont even really know they are doing it. looking forward to the coming wars

Yeah I know and it's sometimes tough to decide where that line is. I agree with you to a large extent but we still need to keep the idea of C-SPAM existing palatable to the rest of the forum, whether we like it or not.

wrt to larry saying "retard" I wish he would just stop. I'm not sure what it proves to keep getting probed for breaking a rule about using slurs over and over again. I don't personally care about that word and as you can see, have used it myself, but it has long been a rule in C-SPAM, and a blanket ban on slurs in a leftist space shouldn't surprise anyone. And yes, I am generally acting on a report from other users when I probate for that, so it's not just the mods who have a problem with it.

I got a push notification this morning from the cnn app, which i have disabled notifications from, saying there's new evidence that china is killing millions of people, then I went into cspam and discovered that the only allowable response to this is to nod and thank cnn for keeping us informed of the terrible crimes of americas enemies

Ya, and the united states is currently doing immigrant concentration camps and deliberately exacerbated a pandemic because stephen miller noticed that black people were particularly vulnerable both due to a lack of adequate health care and systemic racism in the healthcare system itself, so highlighting the terrible sins of the insidious communists helps with that too.
