We just need our mojo back. China has their Battle at Lake Changjin, why not an American movie about a time we beat the Chinese at something?

quote:China is facing a demographic crisis with an ageing population and declining birthrates. More than 18% of the population is aged over 60, according to the 2020 census. Figures released by the country’s national bureau of statistics in November showed there were 8.5 births per 1,000 people in 2020, the first time in decades that the figure has fallen below 10. In 1978, the figure was more than 18 per 1,000. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/dec/10/china-editorial-says-communist-party-members-must-have-three-children the CCP thirst for genocidal blood knows no bounds, they're so committed to evil they're even genociding themselves lol

Leadership in America is rock bottom right now. While it is unlikely that even the dumbest people in our government would engage in a nuclear exchange, I would not discount it as an impossibility.

after the last few decades of world events why would any sane country give up or fail to maintain their nuclear stockpile? Corbyn can be criticized not because he felt deeply that were he in a position to do so, he wouldn’t fire the missiles, but because he told the world that he wouldn’t, which defeats the entire point of having nuclear missiles. the entire point of a doomsday device is lost if you tell everyone before hand you won’t use it. I need to update my av to dr. strangelove Torpor has issued a correction as of 22:50 on Dec 10, 2021 |
