Well, paying the troops better doesn’t mean starting new wars overseas. I think Americans are sick of war. Particularly because the blob can’t seem to win a war. 20 years in Afghanistan against goat herders with AKs and they didn’t win? WTF

they didn’t win because they didn’t have a goal. Their plan was just “Idk just sort of hang around taking casulties and killing civilians for a couple decades until we decide we’re bored”

it’s not surprising that plan didn’t have results it didn’t even plan to get results

The plan was to extract a bunch of rare earth minerals and grow a ton of opium poppies to give to the Sacklers so they could get people hooked on oxycontin. Billions of dollars of minerals were successfully stolen and the opioid crisis exploded, stealing over a trillion dollars from working class Americans and another trillion and a half from the state in the 20 years since then.

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
