@Tonight at 11 - DOOM Wasn't the Papal Inquisition MUCH worse than their Spanish equivalent?
(I vaguely recall seeing something that said as much)
@SnowPirate67 I don't consider "anarchy" to be "war".
it’s a coalition of under a loose umbrella covering all sectors of ideologies all united under the determination to see themselves heard and their concerns redressed
Chicago is not "civil war".
Even if guns are fired every single day.
Whoops guess the Syrian Civil War wasn’t a real war by that definition then
you really did miss the point of what he was saying
Well, they had at least Assad and rebels. Rebels obviously different factions.
In USA, you have... what?
Antifa, the Govt, and Right-Wing groups
@SPOOKY Phil, Ruler of Heck No, the Spanish one was the bloodiest. The particularity in the Papal States was that, because the lay authority WAS the Pope, it was the actual Inquisition that directly did the violence, not a separate party. So in that sense, they were more bloody, because the blood was on their hands.
Anarchists, fascists, ethnonationalists, communists, and even normal people who were just pushed into fighting for them to be able to participate in the process
@SPOOKY Phil, Ruler of Heck And what has govt done to curb Antifa?
NJ considers them terrorists iirc
But regardless, over all, the number of victims was very small
It's an odd war when govt takes punishment but doesn't shoot back.
The point he was making was that no faction or even organization would be the label of the enemy against the feds
<:Nice:595347902155718666>
And have any of Antifa been sent to Guantanamo?
And reigned the rule that the 1st offense is forgiven anyway.
All terrorists are sent to Guantanamo?
Was the OKC bomber sent to Guantanamo?
like unironically pulling a strawman when that’s not the point I am making or his for that matter
@SPOOKY Phil, Ruler of Heck Was OKC even a military combatant?
Was the Unabomber sent to Guantanamo?
All terrorists are military combatants?
If you claim there's a war, Antifa are military combatant. They can and need to be imprisoned **without trial** into POW camps. Or shot dead with deadly force without trial.
That's war.
I don't really consider there to be a war currently being fought in the USA
War would be much preferential to what USA has.
Just as I don't consider the LA Riots to be a war
I don't consider what USA has to be a "war" like Tim Pool thinks it is.
since you can’t be bothered to even read up here you go
@SnowPirate67 I don't care about some 80's redefinition of "war".
Likewise I don't accept redefinition of "woman" to include men with balls.
Fuck redefinitions.
@whiic Has Tim Pool said that we're in a war, or has he said that we're drawing CLOSER to a war?
From the videos of his that he's seen, he's said the latter, essentially.
Fourth-generation warfare is normally characterized by a violent non-state actor (VNSA) fighting a state. This fighting can be physically done, such as by modern examples Hezbollah or the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE).[5] In this realm, the VNSA uses all three levels of fourth generation warfare. These are the physical (actual combat; it is considered the least important), mental (the will to fight, belief in victory, etc.,) and moral (the most important, this includes cultural norms, etc.) levels.
A 4GW enemy has the following characteristics: lack of hierarchical authority, lack of formal structure, patience and flexibility, ability to keep a low profile when needed, and small size.[6] A 4GW adversary might use the tactics of an insurgent, terrorist, or guerrilla in order to wage war against a nation's infrastructure. Fourth generation warfare takes place on all fronts: economical, political, the media, military, and civilian. Conventional military forces often have to adapt tactics to fight a 4GW enemy.[7]
Resistance can also be below the physical level of violence. This is via non-violent means, such as Gandhi's opposition to the British Empire or Martin Luther King's marches. Both desired their factions to deescalate the conflict while the state escalates against them, the objective being to target the opponent on the moral and mental levels rather than the physical level. The state is then seen as a bully and loses support.
