          ...wait, can those things not be reloaded? Did the US MIC seriously make the antitank equivalent of a disposable razor? lea-huh

            Only designing for a single use lets it be much more lightweight, durable, and cheap (the components need to only withstand a single shot). It's not a new concept either, the original Panzerfaust from WW2 was a single use anti-tank gun.

              Maybe basing your military tech off of an evil military that also absolutely ate shit is not a good idea

                Not defending fascists, but most assault rifles today can trace some design lineage back to the StG 44. Which is usually regarded as the first practical assault rifle.

                  Yeah, the design of the AK-47 was strongly inspired by the StG 44. Just because a technology originated in a fascist country doesn't mean that it's necessarily shit.

            No, they buy it from Sweden. It is the low cost alternative to the reusable ones. Also easier to use due to the lower weight.

            China and the Soviet Union also use/used disposable anti tank weapons, before everyone gets on their high horses about capitalist inefficiency.

            Yes but it makes more sense when you realize nato is inherently an aggressive and offensive force. You want lightweight and disposable AT because your doctrine is defined by mobility and the reliance on air dominance on the assault. This is in contrast to Russia who mostly relies on multi use anti tank weapons because their doctrine is primarily more defensive based.

      What is the point of walking around in public with an anti-helicopter weapon and two revolvers? Even if we lived in the homo-judeo-islamic-bolshevik reality the far right imagines we're in, is ISIS-MS13-AntiFa gonna come at you with an Apache anytime soon? The revolvers would maybe be kinda useful but I'd just keep the shoulder mount rocket at home unless you start hearing about the AntiFa Air Calvary division coming to town.

      Ok look at the control he has over that cone. None of that shit with Biden where the ice cream is hanging out over the sides, dripping everywhere, making him look like a propeller hat boy with a lollypop

    "Just a cone" sounds like a cone with no ice cream to me, so yes, that sounds weird to me.

      I mean, the Democrats just lost a vote for a bill that basically did everything Miller has been working for for the past 15 years, so he doesn't really need to do anything. He helped move the Republicans to the right, and now the Democrats do as all good controlled oppositions do, and move further right with them.

    At the very least, if you are in fact conducting important business, ask for a bowl and a spoon.

    There are like 10 people on earth doing "important business" more than once a year, is larping as a CEO 24/7 now a mandatory part of the male gender for these people?

    I wonder, if not sexual/romantic attraction to men, what the metric chuds use to claim [activity, hobby, or interest that has zero to do with sexuality] is gay even is.

      My girlfriend claims she has dated guys in the past who refused to wash or wipe their assholes because that's gay. So bar is pretty fucking low when you're willing have a poop stench follow you around forever because you don't understand basic hygiene doesn't impact your sexuality.

        If smelling like shit 24/7 is straight, then that just makes me take absolute pride in being queer.
