Money is a big part of it, but I think ego becomes a bigger piece of it

Its not about the money. Its about the intent.

The grifting types lend their energy to the existing inertia, often switch sides when beneficial for them as well

one of my favorite historical examples is the Spanish Empire and the Count-Duke. everybody saw what was coming, but couldn't say anything in public out of fear of embarassing themselves

battleship admirals versus billy mitchell and air power, etc. i wrote papers on similar things for more recent evolution in military tech for us and 'the enemies', whom have their own institutional issues

US?

us navy aviators trying to 'kill' the cruise missile etc

Who do you refer to by 'us'

Nope,you are just nitpicking and biased i win, bye bye

The left doesn't "hate" America, they just want it to be fundamentally changed into something completely different

but really, they love America

lmao

interesting

everyone loves america

they have no choice

Lmfao

i like america

They hate the values. Which is part of what makes up America. Theyd rather see it burned to the ground than accept it isnt going to change because it hurts their feelings 😂

Now thats not aimed at all of them. But quite a few can get it lol

That's pretty stupid lol

Idk what values you think "make up" America

just values, since the left has none to begin with

If being an ignorant piece of shit is one of your values, maybe

lol

the left values killing fetuses

Some of us do, true

Some of us have an actual thirst for it, like me

and shitting on the Constitution when it suits them

Hmm that one, I'm not so sure about

and wishing for pure democracy like brain dead morons

virtue signaling about "gun violence"

virtue signaling about all sorts of things as a matter of fact

they *really* value that

guns dont kill

feigning outrage when someone on the right does or says something slightly offensive to them

Lol but the right is famous for doing just that

How can you not see the hypocrisy?

It's insane man

For someone who considers themselves logical enought to shit on others you sure got it together bud. Lmao
