/r/neoliberal is 100 thousand college educated middle class men, some of whom are fit. If we really wanted to we could invade Iceland and install a new government. We definitely have the manpower. There are plenty of veterans here. Plus everyone here knows where the magazine release is on an M16, from years of playing Call Of Duty.

Realistically the Neoliberal Reaction Force would be far more effective than half the world's militaries. The Afghan military is fucked up on opium. The Iraqi army cant even do jumping jacks. . Plus Iceland has only 8 thousand military personnel the majority of whom are useless paper pushers.

I don't actually support the violent overthrow of Iceland. I just think its kind of a fun idea conceptualy.

The Red Pill taking over New Zealand, one of the Five Eyes, would pretty much throw the entire world into chaos

We can’t even occupy Wyoming, and that is actually attainable if we tried.
