Holy shit that is awful
We didn’t have twitter in the lead up to the Iraq War, but it is this kind of sentiment that was expressed on the evening news every night
I’d like people to remember that when we start seeing footage of some US troop transports exploding and scattering corpses all over the countryside of greater Manchuria. It’s psychos like this who will never fight in a war pushing for it.
But I’m sure Yglesias is just being ironic here.
Edit: And no sooner am I done writing this only to look up and see that Yglesias was IN FAVOR OF THE IRAQ WAR.* What kind of moral turpitude does it take to be in favor of WAR at 21 years old, see that war that cost the lives of millions through to the present day, and not be utterly sickened by the prospect of anything like that ever happening again?
My anger is indescribable right now.
all over the countryside of greater Manchuria.
I fucked this up but yeah i meant that bit when i said usa will collapse before we land in china
I feel pretty certain we wouldn’t be that stupid…we would however be stupid enough to attempt to nuke China into submission or oblivion.
