So youre saying the US military is concerned with self preservation and not with fighting fascism.
The military as an entity doesn't really have interests. It's a tool. Like a wrench. It exists to be used. American foreign policy uses it to promote American interests all over the world. By American interests I mean American businesses ability to make money.

Your granddad is the embodiment of heroism.
From what my mum told me, he was a complex man. His experiences had an impact. Ill say that, but he always protected his family. He died when I was about 2 1/2.

I say died, but hed developed a degenerative condition and decided his time was up when he had a seizure that was so devastating my uncle had to carry him to bed. His thing was always self-sufficiency. He couldnt deal with being helpless.

My Mum and I were staying with him, my grandmother and my uncle at the time. Nobody knew what he was planning, but he spent the evening with my mum, my uncle and my grandmother, going through the best bottle of scotch in the house and just enjoying life.

The next day, he spent with me. He sent my mum and grandmother out with a huge wad of spending money to go shopping. He knew I was absolutely enchanted by his goldfish. He had ponds. He bred them. There were prizes. I just remember these tiled rectangular ponds full of these amazing, pearlescent fish. It was his thing, which he approached methodically and as scientifically as he did his orchids. Anyway, these goldfish were a passion. His last day on earth, he spent a sizeable amount of time filling a wading pool with water and watching me swim with some of his most beautiful goldfish*. The rest of the day I dont know, if my sons anything to go by it would have been me zooming around being a tiny maniac.

That night, he euthanised himself. That makes me angry, but the some time, given everything, I understand.

Honestly, I just wish I remembered more of him. I also wish I was one half as smart and as tough as he was, lol.

Sorry for the thread hijack.

*I know this isnt exactly on message regarding animal cruelty, but that was a different generation

Wow what a strangely irrelevant reply

Not really. Your interest in actually fighting fascism ends with street LARPing and not actually opposing authoritarian states. Probably would have been an isolationist in the 30s.

Authoritarian governments have literally zero issue with using military force to achieve their goals so it stands to reason that liberal democracies should have an even greater military capability to establish a deterrent against such aggression.

This board is full of fucking weirdos who think fighting Hitler was bad but I'm for some reason supposed to care about what they think of me.

his issue with me goes way back to a topic where I embarrassed him really badly about some small thing that didn't even matter really. it's just an ego thing, he's never forgotten it.

Ok, hypothetical here. Russia and the US enter into a hot war over who does the Aleutian Islands really belong to, anyway?

Russia triggers a mini black hole that destroys Washington. Thats probably on par with how most international legislature considered the prospect of nuclear weapons at the time, considering the Apollo program was super duper extra specially tippy top secret

Thats alright, yeah? Washington goes bloop?

Theres nothing specifically against it, right?
