How in the fuck can you possibly say that with your political alighment.

Please tell me you were pro IRAQ war and thought they had WMDs. PLEASE dont tell me you were against that war.

PLEASE dont tell me you think pulling out of Afghanastan was a good idea.

I can't live in a world with this kind of hypocrisy.
I see Jib is yelling at clouds again.

One tangent to the next with no rhyme or reason.

I pointed out you were wrong and you wildly flail with nonsense about Iraq and other real wars the US was in. When the discussion was on US proxy wars.

I guess it isn’t to far from how the GOP normally deal with political topics. Tangent into stupider and non-coherent subjects.

Economic output. I thought that would be obvious from context.

I'm wrong for saying we're wasting money on military spending?

For calling out how they are destroying our planet??

The cold war we literally just burnt oil for the sake of it and you're over here using it as a reason we should continue spending more now.

yeah... the vast majority of money americans spend goes to another country

from amazon, to mom/pop shops, to the gas station, you're folding your money into paper airplanes and then throwing them across an ocean.

here's an exercise, walk around your house and try to find an item made 100% in the USA. raw materials, parts, assembly and distribution.

I've tried this before, its hard, i don't remember finding anything made 100% in the usa.

Because our government sold us out in exchange for potential soft power.

They pushed manufacturing over to China in the hopes that we would turn them into loyal capitalists.

Nope lol
