yeah

fair

Kek

Imagine having no argument

Go on, continue

Ironic.

@Jym you see those are options, but my logic is that of the mafia. Someone takes your piece you take theirs. Also if someone steps out of line—make a example out of them

International relations and geopolitics isn’t a fun house

Trump disagrees <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

Well I don’t know what to say to that

But for the most part I’m actually a isolationist

I know

And a pragmatist

Which is why it's impossible to have an discussion with you

If your approach is "Walk away"

Y'know, a discussion would be possible if you tried to understand his mindset

Then sure, lmao

His mindset being "Destroy our current position for no gain" @SPOOKY Phil, Ruler of Heck

I already know what it is.

My approach “walk away if it isn’t your business”

They did it. They outlawed memes.

You mean not just assault memes?!

That's what isolationism it @SPOOKY Phil, Ruler of Heck

@Wizard_of_The_West oh fuck

<:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

Context, buddy.

@Jym

Oh I am talking about thug options. I mean recognize that China only dug itself out of being another 3rd world shithole by having access to global trade networks we control. In a war would we let them continue to do business anywhere? Would we let their container ships travel through water where we have overwhelming force?

Context being, we're going to let an enemy take our position? @SPOOKY Phil, Ruler of Heck

Yeah but he doesn’t understand my position, see he would have us protect the sea lanes of hostile nations like China while rooting for them in a conflict between us. That’s the scummy shit we’re dealing with @SPOOKY Phil, Ruler of Heck

@Nathan James 123 the enemy being some paper tiger in the far north?

A "paper" tiger that's expanding

And funding your enemies <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

>inb4 "Saudi Arabia is funding your enemies"

I mean there's that as well

technically no

the govt isn't

Of course :))))

@Jym y’know if you really wanted to get evil about it, you could just say “we aren’t protecting chinas sea lanes anymore” then have a “mutiny” on one of the carrier strike groups that attacked Chinese ships “out of our control” or blame it on someone else

Put Chinese flags up on your own ships
