Cerebral Bore posted:popping my monocle in shock and consternation as the uncouth colonials do racism wrong well its less about that and more "drat, we are expected to take a bullet but get paid less." and "how come they treated us well in their country but abuse us in ours." All that was solid was melting into air. The social collapse of british rule in parts of India was kinda like the end of the chinese emperorship. People who had grown up knowing that the raj was a part of their lives just saw the social system upended. The brits right after world war 2 started doing things like more equitable sharecropping etc because people who knew how to use guns were starting to form insurgencies.

KomradeX posted:Western capitalism, is Capitalism. India isn't going to fill the void that maintains it going, they're not going to dispatch expeditionary teams to keep regions destabilized to keep business happy. To revert to 19th Century capitalism would mean The Number would have to go down, and that is the end of the world for these people. Capital has no where else to go, there are no bulwarks that can do for it like the US did in the 20th and the Britain did for the 19th. I don't think you have to look for some unified bourgeois gestalt declaring one day that the save's hosed, obvious death spiral, let's check out the bad ending. The worry's dancing down the primrose path from "destabilizers keep business happy, send 'em" to "the destabilizers might come home and destabilize us personally if we don't keep them busy, keep 'em churning no matter the diplomatic costs" to "we're being embargoed of a longterm military necessity, do we bring the destabilizers home all at once complete with bespoke dolchstoßlegende or do we see whether a limited strategic first strike can secure what we need?" Each of those is about one hyperventilation about January 6th away from being conventional wisdom.

just read Stopping the Panzers because of the extended ww3 universe threads and that's a cracking good read. great dry witquote:Meyer thought of the attack as Wagnerian, but a modern audience would see it as more of a scene from a Mad Max movie, a wild charge of men and machines designed primarily to shock and overrun. “This is the way we fought in the East,” Meyer wrote in his memoirs, “but will these surprise tactics achieve the same for us here?” not that that strategy had been working out for the nazis to the east either also cackled a bit at the coda that he got off with 10 years for basically personally murdering dozens of canadians because they weren't worth prosecuting over nothing more dangerous than being america's ally atelier morgan has issued a correction as of 09:38 on Apr 9, 2024 |

We were discussing this in the Canada thread, but Canada's attempts to buy nuclear submarines in the late 80's/early 90's was a disaster and things are much worse now.

Well this is ideal then since there's absolutely no way this deal is going to result in anyone new getting nuclear submarines

The US will lose ww3 because instead of choosing to take a radical break from the looping contradictions, they instead quiety resign and ride into the sunset never changing, smiling along the way.

The comedic tone was way less satirical and more goofy. I watched some of it today. Amal Clooney's husband did a fantastic job. I thought the B-25 scenes were well shot, they seem to have used CGI less, or better, than Masters of the Air. Casting was great all around. I am astounded that they didn't change Captain Aardvark getting away without consequences. Good for them.
