@minordissent I keep seeing all this pontificating on why Red matters when it's just easier to not like the Blues

Blue voters are so full of shit on so many levels.
1. The question is not over whether you are selfless its whether you think most people are. Even the most holier than thou lib believes most people are selfish and thus would not press blue.
2. If everyone just presses red no one dies. blue adds unnecessary death.
3. They are moralizing the experiment to ask “what is the good person answer” rather than honestly reflecting on what theyd do if it really happened. I guarantee you that you put any person in that room and say “if you vote blue but most people dont, we will SHOOT YOU” that not one single person will take that risk, especially given #1.

Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?

@RapidResponse47 Just dissolve the court system. Leave only 1 SCOTUS Justice

I trust about 7.5% of people to be decent.

>Everyone is saved if 100% press Red. >Everyone is saved if 51% press Blue Everyone pressing Red is just saying "I trust less than half of you to be decent people and I don't care if it kills Everyone else as long as I get to live!" That's cool bro. Still pressing blue, even if it saves people like you.

Thank you for identifying these critical foreign policy failures and tagging the POTUS in the identification. America cannot rely on unstable Hellholes for its critical Healthcare components
Rattan Dhillon@ShivrattanDhil1
Call India a “hellhole” if you want but your healthcare says otherwise. ~47% of your generics prescriptions come from India. ~40% of your drug demand depends on it. You’ve saved $2.9 trillion in a decade because of it. ~Every 6th patient is treated by an Indian-origin doctor. Over 80,000 Indian-origin doctors treat your patients. Mock India all you want but your system leans on it! Idiot @realDonaldTrump

I am EXTREMELY OPTIMISTIC from what I'm seeing here on X.
The challenge before us is converting our online intensity into meatspace.
"BuT MiKe, X iSn'T rEaLiTy." Then let's make it reality.

@RealDustinM I really don't see why we don't do that. I would be down for the ground team getting the bounties if we have to use the military.

Obviously dumb but what was the bounty for Maduro again?

@QuetzalPhoenix @KILLTOPARTY Just pick her up and squeeze her a little too tight from time to time. A little reminder goes a long way.

We want to live in a 90% white ethnostate with a powerful navy, army and where young men can get married and start families in their early 20s. That's more important than trying to figure out how to twist the legal code. Outcomes are more important than process, or rhetoric.

Meet the new Acting Navy Secretary Hung Cao:
“They call me a white supremacist. I have one ask for them: when you give me my hood, make sure it’s got the little slits and not the circles so I can see better.”

In case anyone wonders why I get hung up on words and key phrases for the Global SITREP, this is why. Almost everyone is a hostile actor using nuance to say something they mean that can be understood differently by their adversaries. China, India and the ENTIRE MidEast does this
Eric Schwalm@Schwalm5132
In Special Forces, we were trained to really pay attention to the language people use. There's a saying we lived by: "words have meaning". That meant breaking them down carefully, what exactly is being said, and who shares the same understanding of those terms? That's why phrases like "our democracy" immediately make me pause and ask: who exactly is "our"? Am I part of that group? Are everyday Americans like me and my community included? It's the exact same question that comes up in office politics when someone says "we." Who is that "we," really? If I just relied on my own definition or the standard dictionary one, I'd naturally assume I was included. But that's the trap. Without clear definitions, laid out upfront, like you're required to do in a college research paper to prevent misunderstandings, assumptions can lead you way off track. The Democrats aren't fools. As @DataRepublican lays out in this thread, they've made it crystal clear that the rest of us aren't part of their "our." It's a closed club, and that's the point

🚨VIVEK JUST EXPOSED THE “HERITAGE AMERICAN” MYTH 🔥
(And he’s 100% RIGHT)
🇺🇸 If you come here the right way — legally, with respect for our laws and our flag — you are a full American. Period.
This “heritage American” nonsense that says unless you were born here you’re somehow less American? That’s the same supremacy logic the left loves to scream about.
By that standard, you’re telling Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk they’re second-class. Absurd. I’ve met legal immigrants who are more patriotic than most native-born Americans. They came here for freedom, not handouts — and they defend it harder than some people who were handed citizenship at birth.
Republicans, we have to do better.
A changing nation doesn’t need gatekeeping — it needs unapologetic Americanism.
Don’t tell the next generation of legal, hard-working, flag-loving Americans “you’re not really one of us.”
Vivek is just as American as I am.
Full stop.
Who’s with me? 🇺🇸

If Trump gets rid of the Indians, we can assume we no longer need the threat of a 2-front war against China. That means no more pressing external threats to the American Empire.

If Trump got rid of the Indians I would forgive him for so much it’s insane.

@Schwalm5132 Wasn't a fan of his background (no service) but great things were happening during his tenure. Still trying to figure out what happened here. Hopefully the "high low mix" fleet concept stays put.

I'm not a Navy dude and don't claim to know much about their organization.
Does anybody want to shed some light on this one?
