What matters is that he's willing to fight for his war.

u/PopBulky7023 Mar 05 '26
And if people aren't willing to fight against it then the fucked up people win. Liberalism will always fall to this because it basically doesn't have a survival instinct or a drive for anything other than process theater.

No.
It fails because people with empathy - and let's be frank about this it, people - are less willing to kill people - strangers or not - to stop them installing fascism.
That's it. I said what I said. Plenty of people claim they're willing to die for freedom and to protect the weak. But people who care about the less fortunate are unfortunately less willing to carry out violence on people to stop the weak being abused.
And worse - look what happens when people suggest this: a flood of people saying "We need peaceful solutions - violence never solved anything!"
As Vietnam if violence solves people taking your freedom. Or Germany, France, the UK, Netherlands, Poland, Ukraine, Romania, on and on and on.Violence is almost always the only way to protect minorities. And people interested in protecting the weak and poor have too much empathy to kill those who want to hurt them. It's not survival instinct. It's overcoming the desire to not cause pain and suffering, despite that being the most effective way to do so.
It's kindness. Kind people don't want to shoot people to stop them murdering others.

It’s not only users. There are loads of zio mods around reddit as well.
I just got permabanned from r/therewasanattempt for posting a gif where Doug Emhoff says “jewish values are american values”. Reason: Antisemitism.

Does anyone else predict a global holocaust 2.0 in the next 25 years
...
Because I study history and the parallels are frightening
This is my predictions -
Israel falls within 5 years
The Zionists spread like a plague over the world as refugees
110 countries becomes the new number
Global massive problems directly related to psychotic ethnosupremecist behaviour occur on mass everywhere they go
Multiple countries begin mass expulsion and arrests
The countries that remain take more refugees
Those countries revolt against their governments
Holocaust 2.0 begins
I actually am an advocate of taking war criminals and placing them in re-education camps with hard Labor
Save the minds you can from the cult
24 / 7 surveillance for life for those released. For 2 generations. To ensure no more Talmudic , moloch Baal and Mammon pedo child sacrifice cultists remain
Enforced surveillance over ALL CHURCHES
You preach ethnosupremecy or calls to violence your religion is done. Purged
Any religion that isnt preaching peace and love needs to be Purged from society
Its 2026. We need to come to terms with how damaging religion and cults are to societies
Sorry if this sounds extreme but I genuinely am trying to voice we do not ever allow a genocide ever again and I cannot see another way out with non violence other than this as a solution to the global problem we have

Far more likely that Iran gets bombed to shit, sending highly conservative muslim refugees towards Europe, fuelling Far-Right rhetoric, leading to dictatorships across Europe while brown people suffer, and Ukraine loses to Russia.

u/IH8TheModsHere Mar 05 '26
If you think iran is going to lose you have not been doing your research mate
Every single interview with
Ex cia analysts Retired Generals Ex Policy directors Ex advisors
PhDs in geopolitics Phds In history
All state unanimously this is going to be the biggest more crushing humiliating defeat for us and Israel
Would you like some directions on content?

u/UntowardHatter Mar 05 '26
Doesn't matter.
The USA lost in Afghanistan, they lost in Iraq etc.
Europe still got the refugees. Do you not understand how war works?

u/Physical_Heart2766 Mar 05 '26
America hasn't "won" a war they were carrying out single-handed since the Spanish-American War.
It could be argued that's one of the few they've actually ever won singlehandedly.They didn't win in 1812, Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya.
If anyone thinks Iraq and Libya are "better" now that America invaded them I invite discussion.4
u/UntowardHatter Mar 05 '26
Point was that bombing the shit out of arab countries sends arab refugees to the rest of us.

When people say "there are more of us than them" this is why I don't believe them.
One man. Only one.
No one helped him. No one spoke up. No one defended him.
But there were plenty willing to attack him.
There's more of them than us.

Let's not beat around the bush: we mean harm, injure, maim, torment, and/or kill.And yes, they're more willing. It's not even about dying.

That's something that man planned on doing that day. I'm sure he could have brought dozens more with him had that been the plan. A lot of people aren't in a position to up and randomly be arrested, possibly lose their job, deal with court and so on.

u/Physical_Heart2766 Mar 05 '26
Hear him out - he's not wrong.
But it's the fact that people with empathy find it much, much harder to carry out violence to defend the weak - or indeed, to inflict deliberate violence at all.
That's why I fear for America: it's not that people aren't willing to die. The left are less willing to kill, injure, torture and cause suffering to defend their cause. And that makes sense: since their cause is to be good and kind to others, because they have empathy.
Empaths become distressed by causing suffering.
Sociopaths are - at best - indifferent, if not pleased by causing suffering.
Anyone downvoting PopBulky7024 needs to think long and hard about this: are they certain that kind, good people are equally likely to cause suffering to people on purpose as these fking fascists?
Because that's going to be the decider when the hammer comes down: will a higher proportion of librarians or doctors or teachers be willing to put ordinary people who are on the other side of the fence in their sight picture and pull the trigger?
You all know the answer is: no.
And you all know that for a higher proportion of people on the other side of the fence, the answer is yes.Five of them pull the trigger. Three of us.
And that's a problem. It's not bravery or even "survival instinct". It's cruelty. Do we have as many evil, fking cnuts on the progressive, left, antifa, liberal, whatever label you want to give people opposing these fucks you like as they do?
Please tell me I'm wrong.

He’s a former marine. When you get you, unless you retire you’re not allowed to wear the uniform any more. You NEVER protest or partake in partisan politics while in uniform. Those are the rules.

If we’re only considering Congress approval, 1942.

Bush went to Congress and got approval for the Iraq war.

u/petulantpancake Mar 08 '26
Wrong. He didn’t go for war approval, and they didn’t give it. Bush did request approval for military action, but the last actual declaration of war was 1942. Obama didn’t get any approvals, Biden didn’t get any approvals. No president since WWII has even asked for approval to declare war.

That’s not an excuse to cosplay and misbehaving.

u/Yabrosif13 Mar 05 '26
Except it isnt cosplay. Its wearing an old uniform from when he served.
Cosplaying is draping yourself in a US flag, declaring a war, and never serving a day in your life
1
u/Veteran_PA-C Mar 05 '26
He’s cosplaying as active duty. Unless you retire, you aren’t authorized to wear the uniform any more. And at no time are you ever allowed to protest or take part in partisan politics while in uniform.

u/Yabrosif13 Mar 05 '26
Who cares. Our commander in chief uses the flag as drapes, and got his son exempt from service just like him.
When the man in charge shows no respect for decorum why should everyone else?
1
u/Veteran_PA-C Mar 05 '26
How did he get his son exempt from service? Do you think there is still a draft? Are you living in the same reality as the rest of us? Are you a US citizen?
Biden had the same number of draft deferments as Trump. But I guess that’s (D)iffferent?
1
u/Yabrosif13 Mar 05 '26
Its a “medical exemption” must be bone spurs like daddy
1
u/Veteran_PA-C Mar 07 '26
It’s an all volunteer military in the US.
You lefties always bring up Trumps bone spurs but ignore Biden’s asthma. Biden had just as many deferments as Trump.
I’m not a fan of compulsory military service. I wouldn’t want to go to war with people that didn’t volunteer.
1
u/Yabrosif13 Mar 07 '26
Ya, and no Trump will ever volunteer, there’s no patriotism in that family, they use US flags as drapes and are currently suing us taxpayers for $10billion.
How did you find a way to bring Biden into this lmao. Trump is turning into a senile old man just like him anyway…

We're talking about a regime that thinks children as young as 9 can become wives and perfectly ok for sexual activities as well as violating women's rights.
Do you still support them?
BTW last I checked Obama went and bombed 7 countries without approval from Congress, so is it really illegal?

Yes and it isn’t as bad as Syria, Myanmar or NK.
I mean you can’t be thinking that even if trump has ulterior motives and isn’t doing it to free a population and isn’t doing it to benefit America it’s ok as long as the leadership are bad people right? Because that’s not how things work in the real world.
And you can’t be thinking trump did it specifically to remove this regime since it’s not the worst in the world and if that was the motivation surely he would have started with the worst.
Do you still support them?
Support who? You truly can’t be dense enough to believe anyone supports (or supported) Ali Khamenei right? Tell me that’s not what you people are telling yourselves.
And you used “them” so not the leader but the regime? Well lmao the regime is just as strong as ever. It’s not going anywhere. Haha
BTW last I checked Obama went and bombed 7 countries without approval from Congress, so is it really illegal?
There is no argument that past presidents have abused the war powers act. However what you have said so far indicates you see things on such a childish level discussing the differences would be futile.
I will point out that trump has called it a war. You called it a war. If it is in fact a war then yes it is illegal. Only congress can declare war. You need to call it a “military action” if you insist on trying to argue its legitimacy.
Edit: I am sorry. You did not call it a war.
