Global Events & Politics Überthread

Price of “x” temporarily rises in a crisis in response to supply/demand factors and left wing politicians trip over themselves rushing to tell us how capitalism must be restrained and the market is broken. Meanwhile, a government run system leads to a shambolic result and no one can be bothered to lift an eyebrow. Isn’t a six million person backlog pretty damning proof that a system isn’t working properly?

Those 6 million are priveledged because they don't have a high health care bill to worry about because they are instead dead.
 
It's telling that we get loser Lebron shoved down our throat on every civil rights issue when this guy is the true patriot

But Lebron says he is "misinformed"

Are you claiming insurance companies aren’t death panels? Lol

I honest to God didn’t have any clue where you were going with that and certainly it didn’t expect this.

I don’t think that’s at all true, but if you have data to back it up I’d like to see it

A senior U.S. Space Force officer has stressed that China's new hypersonic weapon system is indeed orbital in nature and could be able to stay in space for an extended period of time. This is the latest piece of official information about this novel system that reportedly uses some kind of hypersonic glider, which may be capable of launching its own projectiles to actually execute a strike.
...
Historically, a fractional orbit has been defined as one in which the vehicle in question reaches orbit, but is brought back to Earth before fully circling the planet. However, the common working definition of so-called Fractional Orbital Bombardment Systems (FOBS), of which China's system would seem to be a particularly novel example, has often been expanded to include concepts that do complete one or more revolutions. Saltzman is clearly suggesting here that the Chinese system is designed to spend a more protracted period in space.



As the article goes on to explain, it can't be overstated just how much of a game changer this is. All of the US early warning system and deterrence strategy are based on the ability to detect incoming ICBMs from specific directions and with time to respond.

Our land based ICBM fields can't act as a missile sponge if an adversary can just nuke the few command and control nodes across the country prior to their granting permission to fire the missiles.

Nuke armed bombers only fly from a few fields, and there are only ever one or two ballistic missile subs actively cruising at any one time. A fast enough strike on the handful of relevant targets could leave the entire counterattack responsibility on only one or two submarine commanders.

Space just became forever militarized.
 
I’ll still mock space force

Do you think this wouldn’t have been reported without them? Lol
 
Lol, you in here acting like we weren’t paying attention to those things till “space force” came a long lol
 
Have you seen what Satanists are doing? They are claiming abortion as a religious ritual. That freedom of religion is really a joke. Its freedom of mainstream religion. Whats the difference between any mainstream religion and if me and 5 other people want to start a religion. They are all made up by someone at some point.
 
Was it Carlin or a different comedian that said the difference between a cult and religion is the amount of property it owns?

Ummmm that's not really how things work. That would be like saying 76000 at Old Trafford is like almost 380,000 in the USA.

CCP and Russia are just mocking Biden. They know America is as weak as we have ever been and are now going to really test the US.

What a ****ing embarrassment that we let the 2020 election be stolen. None of this would be happening under Trump and you all know that deep down.
 
What exactly has Biden done with the military that would signal to adversaries that we are in a weakened state? We’re still spending all the money and seem to be doing largely all the same things with our troops. The only military thing I can think of that wasn’t great was our withdrawal from Afghanistan, and while there were some very legitimate criticisms to be had, it wasn’t that we were too weak or timid.

Hell, if anything the Biden Administration’s commitment to the status quo in our use of the military would be one of my largest concerns thus far.
