Well, there’s something going on here. I don’t know that there are any mantles involved.
Thanks for winning me a bet everyone. You did great.
They also murdered each other on an inter-tribal basis at pretty phenomenal rates. So, guess I’ll pass on adopting native American tradition.
Aw, he called me Budget Tom Brady™️
Genuinely some of the most ghoulish natcon geopol shit I’ve seen, even from budget tom brady here. This sight has clearly the place now if we’re getting crazy natcon posts already.
War crime: "The conduct took place in the context of and was associated with an international armed conflict"

Explain how that fits, dingdong.
The thing about this is that it makes a real nice place to live.
What’s the word on heroin use?
Haha *has issue with someone about lethal result to action*

*recommends suicide*

*sees no issue there*

Dude, you're the incumbents, the only message that works for you is prices actually going down

Really? Folks on here should be pushing the boats out more.
Hey I like Sal, always have
Show me one society that has allowed widespread drug use and is better for it. Or where incarceration helps solve the issue.
It's awesome when libs on here are also like "I am an insane fascist"
All drug use outside palliative care should be criminalized and possession of dealer quantities should be punishable by death without appeal.
But there are some opportunities that I think are worth identifying and progressing, rather than just complaining about how everyone is a fascism online.
Haha ok yes but.

Look I’m not trying to endorse Donald Trump as a human being, but there are areas where his administration is objectively better than Biden’s. Some are significantly worse.
I don’t really disagree. It’s not great. But I guess I’m more concerned with the lack of transparency around the process - if these are confirmed and vetted targets I don’t care that much. But we don’t know.

And for those still going on about drug boat strikes - I wish you’d cared this much about Afghanistan. I don’t love the use of the military to kill drug runners, but it’s no worse than you’ve allowed for three decades. It’s a bit late for moral hazard pearl clutching now.
The US should act expeditiously to onshore manufacturing in critical sectors. Where tariffs are more effective than subsidies in achieving a rapid result, I am ok with their use.
My personal view of what “Right” looks like is akin to what I’ve heard from USTR.

Less trade with China and restricted to less sensitive sectors.

Stop using punitive tariffs on allies in the EU and Asia.

Blanket tariffs on goods the US can’t produce are misguided.
