    I keep feeling like the US is lashing around like a crazed rabid dog because it needs to fuel its military industrial complex and we currently are not "at war" with someone to do it.

    The news is so starved for war all of a sudden now that we are out of Afghanistan.

      Tbf there may not be a traditional “war” on, but the US is permanently at war. Special forces and their support networks are constantly active everywhere. They’re all over Africa like flies on shit for instance but you never hear about it.

        I know but that isn't paying the bills like large scale theater war does. The neoliberals are baying for blood.

    Why wouldn't China just simply use their weather control machines to make it rain on the F35 and accomplish the same result.

        I mean you probably could but I guess it's easier to just make shit up.

          Just say the deep state's using 5g to make the Havana syndrome as a false flag attack to drag America into another war so the rich can use it to smuggle underage sex slaves out of the new war torn country or some shit

    Cool, the tweet from a 2 day old account that posted a bunch of bullshit and has already been banned from twitter is still getting passed around.

    Yeah, because China, which is doing quite well in most respects, would just randomly risk starting world war 3 by launching an attack out of nowhere on a US aircraft carrier. totally checks out.

      Microwave weapons exist and have an EMP effect if it hits something conductive.

      LRAD is used only for humans as far as I know.

      not really, no. and certainly not in such a way that the source of the weapon wouldn't be observable.

      Americans believe whatever sounds good to them at a given moment and "that thing I heard a couple months ago and never looked into" becomes, "I'm positive, bro, it's definitely true" when someone contradicts them.

        I just - like - how. Do people just not care that they tell the truth, that they aren't just fucking making shit up ?? do people not care about their credibility on this shit?

          Americans rarely have serious political discussions about things they care about. They either commiserate among what they think is a friendly crowd or they condescendingly shit on each other.

          In the former case, there's no conflict and little risk to reputation.

          In the latter case it's just pure defensiveness and trying to rationalize their own uninformed-yet-sacred views vs. those of the enemy. They don't care what the enemy thinks of them.

          It's important to understand that Americans don't read and they acquire a lot of their social skills and knowledge from television, YouTube, and a toxic school / work environment. It's not normal to have read history or political theory. When they have arguments both "sides" are going to be wrong because they don't read and they both kind of know that the other person isn't exactly knowledgeable about something where they could build common ground, but is someone defending a belief system.
