"Lmao why you all mad that I just lied to as support for my point and then argued it endlessly even when given direct proof that I was lying?" is not a good way to cover yourself in glory instead of just admitting you were wrong.

And this is coming from someone who wasn't in your dumb argument at all, fyi. You didn't 'touch a nerve', you just look like a stupid rear end in a top hat and I was trying to be nice. PS, I'm a poor rural gently caress from the South, so I'm the very demographic you're talking about.

psydude posted:So then it's fair to say of that most of the people in the military appear to come from fairly typical economic backgrounds and a variety of locations. Which kind of goes against the myth that it's nothing but poor rural folks. The typical economic background of America circa 2000-2022 is inequitably poor. Rural or Urban doesn't matter. They're not poor relative to the rest of the world but 66k even in lower CoL states isn't much. If you're making 80k in California you're still gonna have a hard time.

The absolute cheek of attacking a country, razing towns, killing thousands, destroying countless pieces of infrastructure (including bridges) and then claiming terrorism when a bridge is destroyed in return. It's ..staggering how brazen it is.

I suspect quite a few Belarusian commanders are drinking tonight, knowing their troops were trained to the same level of quality as the ones being destroyed in Ukraine right now.

Grip it and rip it posted:3/5s of the military appear to come from households that earn less than 66k a year. Poverty may have been overstating it but it's certainly not made up of individuals from affluent families. That's not even to say that these individuals were earning that much - only that they resided in neighborhoods where that was the median income threshold. 60% of the military coming from the poorer half of households is like the mildest conceivable over representation. I’m frankly shocked it’s not more, but I expect the median military household does rather better than the median household overall so that’s maybe skewing things. Also just lol at this forum going “yeah but 66k doesn’t go as far as you think!!!” in a thread about Ukraine of all things. It’s news_article_about_yuppie_budgeting.txt in a global context

Why would you gently caress with Poland? You think invading Ukraine was a mistake, you ain’t seen nothing yet. I imagine it would be a bit like a pit bull getting a hold of a small child.

Russia invades Poland via Belarus, within 24 hours Congress invokes Article 5 and half the US military is steaming or flying for Europe, but it's too late. The Polish flag is already flying over the Kremlin.

Who loving knows with this poo poo This is the same mistake the Nazis made during the Blitz: switching targets to terrorize and demoralize London's civilian population and giving the military infrastructure time to rebuild with US aid. Didn't work that time either.
