@BellaBaddie__ Yeah I had a certain point in the neighborhood I couldn’t go past but we have woods right next to our house so we would just go play in there and build shit. This was early 2000s before hurricane Katrina

@JTAlexander_ The story of hellen keller is so dumb (pun). They didn’t make it even a little bit believable.

As awareness of disabled and special needs kids grows, and people come to doubt historical gospel stories generally, its no surprise that kids don't believe this story.
My interaction with special needs kids has cemented in my mind that there's not a chance this was true story.

@Pembelpoes @VFinnishProbs @iseenowmyprob How would you say WW2 was going if the Americans had killed half of Germany’s leadership, including Hitler, 30 days in?

According to MAGA, the Finnish army doesn’t know anything about winter training.
The Finnish army:

@VeryBrexitProbs @disclosetv "Winter trained personnel" 😂 I live in colder weather than Europeans train in.

"Leave No One Behind" is a lie.
- Operation Eagle Claw, 1980, 8 dead
- Countless Vietnam Examples
- Battle of Mogadishu, 1993
- US withdrawal from Afghanistan, 13 dead

@3mtyG08me214740 @KId2Tf22Az34107 @HLC_actual The US estimated invasion would mean a few million casualties and up to ten million civilians dead. Im not sure if that is accurate or if we needed an excuse to drop the bombs. My grandpa was in Germany april 1945 and preparing to go the Pacific. I’m glad there was no invasion

@mikeysty @KId2Tf22Az34107 @HLC_actual 硫黄島陥落後の猛烈な本土爆撃と沖縄陥落後の海上完全封鎖を3年ぐらい継続すれば日本人の1割以上が餓死して終わったと思います。

@HLC_actual 学校ではあまり教えませんね。ただ、太平洋戦争史としては一般的な理解だと思います。
正直なところ、日本軍に北米大陸に上陸する能力が無かった時点で、アメリカ合衆国の闘志が折れなかった時点で、勝敗は決していたも同然でしょうが。

@HLC_actual Losing 4 out of 6 carriers is a little more than a mistake

For all our new Japanese friends I have a question.
So in the US we are taught that the turning point in the pacific (mildly debated) is the battle of midway. Are you taught the same thing? Or is it more like “that is when we knew we may have made a mistake”. Just curious.

1970s were awful because of black people
English
Everyone else has already dunked on this, but since this is my home and I was there in 1975, good god this is dumb!
1975 was awful. Today is far far better.
Which doesn’t mean prefect. A homeless guy was sleeping on my train this AM. Blocking 5 seats. This needs to be solved.

Look at this video of NYC in 1975, see how peaceful it was? Look at how everybody seems to be enjoying their lives, and not contrast it to today. Our country has been ruined.

This is kind of my opinion on Rogan. I don’t like him and think he’s an asshole politically and personally but he is not evil
Hasan is evil
Superninja76@cleba76
Joe's a bit of a thoughtless dope and buddies up with alot of right wingers but on a personal level, not the worst person. Hasan is a horrible, amoral chud with vile politics that normal folks are disgusted by. He's shut out of polite society because he's fucking radioactive.

@CrispinBurke I believe they are saying 5 miles into mountain sides. My question is why is no one talking about the fact that the supposed rescue operation caused over 400 million in lost military equipment and at least an additional 1 American life in the recovery effort?
English
Why is everyone claiming the F-15 WSO walked over 100 miles in 48 hours?
English
US forces can't be expected to save every aviator in every conflict
But in a high intensity, assymetric war where domestic media and one political party consistently act as fifth columns for the enemy, the value of doing so for morale is strategic

@Arrogance_0024 This is why Americans are different and better than you people
English
The "leave no man behind" doctrine is actually a strategic weakness disguised as a virtue.
Name one other military on earth that destroys 6 aircraft and fights a ground battle inside a sovereign nation to recover one pilot.
You can't. Because no other military confuses tactical sentimentality with strategic logic.
Soldiers serve the mission. The mission doesn't serve the soldier.
The US has now established that Iran can shoot down an F-15, then watch America spend $300M and expose Delta Force trying to prove it didn't happen.
That's not military doctrine. That's politics with weapons.
A military that cannot accept the risk of loss cannot win wars. The US hasn't won one since 1945.

Lose all this to rescue 1 pilot and call it your greatest military success of all time.

@mikeysty @jaysbookman You do know the Gambinos, John Gotti, various mafias and organized crime ran rampant around the city during this time stacking up bodies, right?

In "peaceful" 1975, the murder rate in NYC was 22 per 100,000 residents, with more than 1,600 homicides recorded.
In 2025, the murder rate in NYC was 3.6 per 100,000, with 305 murders recorded.
Even a dumbshit like Hercules here can do that math.

@harshcritic1985 @MOSSADil The US could kill every person in that video without losing a single man
English
@MOSSADil They might be able to pull this off for one downed pilot, but once the ground war starts American body bags are going to be filled at a rapid pace.
English
‼️ JUST IN:
Iranian state media claims U.S. A-10 Thunderbolt aircraft repeatedly struck Basij and IRGC convoys in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad as they attempted to capture a downed U.S. pilot. Heavy U.S. strikes reportedly prevented them from reaching the pilot.
Stay connected, follow @MOSSADil.

@tendekai_mukasi @atUncleMustache The Versailles treaty caused them to be poor. Blaming the versailles treaty is what got hitler to power
English
@atUncleMustache Because Germany was poor and Germans needed someone to blame.
And someone who blamed a group of people and not the people who did the causing of them to be poor.
Plus, there are people who love Satan, so that is not a defence for Hitler at all.
