>>its evident we're not interested in annexing the middle east (thank fuck)
Tbh an American empire would be pretty based
In an ideological battle everytime you walk away you embolden your enemies
no, it wouldn't
it would fall. badly.
because thats what empires do
Just because a star dies that doesn't mean it won't shine brightly before that point
and the middle east is fucking dismal real estate
That is the most ridiculous statement you have made, all empires fall if given enough time, that does not mean they are bad
better off fixing and strengthening the homestead. improve infrastructure, continue growing the economy, support our ***actual*** allies
What a croc of shite
Let me tell you a harsh truth, when nations do not go to war, their Defence budget is often the first thing to get cut to ribbons
So what; men get sacked, equipment fails, vehicles and technology falls into disrepair, etc
oh boohoo, we'll only have a greater budget than only the next *seven* nations combined
perish the thought
BECAUSE America goes to war you absolute retard
If they stopped going the justification for that budget goes down
You want to be the world police you pay for it
its justification is paper thin and balanced on fucking corpses to begin with
Tbh our military is milked for cash by the companies they do business with; in my opinion those corporations should be nationalized
Corpses that in most cases made the choice to serve and the choice to go because they chose to do something with their lives that gave them wealth and pride <:shrug:349342983763656705>
And you some tard on the internet wants to spit on that <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>
yes, I have so little respect for my country's servicemen I want their service to actually benefit their country instead of make fat saudi pigs richer
got it just right, moron
Except it wont dude, you like most civvies have it in their head that "troops should stay at home" without realising that troops staying at home are doing fuck all else and get sacked
where did I say stay home? nice dodge
So yes you do have little respect for them
Make the military the domestic police force <:thinking_clown:590855640268668928>
Basically what they want legio, but the military does not want to do that
No, the constitution forbids a standing army on US soil. the national guard is a separate entity
The idea of soldiers marching around their own streets detaining their own people is repugnant tbh
@Storin because then your state is implicitly at war with the population it governs
That's why I put the <:thinking_clown:590855640268668928>
You already have the police to do that as well
exactly
which is why I didn't suggest that
Yeah, but the people don't see it that way. It becomes much more obvious with a military presence
sorry, which people, and to what end?
The real you should be asking what would they be doing to benefit the country
Well as I said soldiers are usually working class men that don't "fit" in society, that is why they go to the military 🤔
