Official War With Iran Thread

[CrimsonTider]

Yeah the average person isn't really thinking about Iran on that level

You got job losses that are going all across the country, affordability is the problem, health care costs keep rising this is low on their bucket list

If any at all. If you didn't get your bonus from Chrysler or just lost your job from UPS you don't give a damn about this

This actually appeals to a very small group of people

as always, if you have the time and energy to care about insertional conflicts and issues then you are in a privileged position.

I said the something about Gaza and got called a zionist

I don’t agree with a lot of what Nick says but I think he has good political acumen, is funny, and is authentic. I don’t agree with some of his views, Catholicism, racial etc. almost all of our media is controlled by Israel or people who want their money and he isn’t. I think he’s a flawed person but genuinely wants the best for the country. He’s not some cult member like a huge percentage of this country.

He lies about not being a homosexual, that by definition means he’s not authentic.

He also said Epstien was a Chad.

It feels like some of us didn’t grow up in call of duty lobbies. He’s joking about Epstein. None of us know if he’s gay. At some point we lost all notion of comedic satire and Irony

I grew up in Xbox live lobbies where I was called the N word immediately by just talking on the mic from cacs.

Calling Epstein a chad isn’t funny and he’s definitely gay.

How is someone of his stature and charisma still a “virgin”?

If ww3 does kick off USA is winning it easily. It literally feels like we let the kids into the Candy store. We have an insane military and military tech and now the kids are in charge and want to see the toys in action. I don’t think there’s any military in the world that is even close to us.

China can definitely give the United States a serious run for its money. Most of America’s military success has depended on overwhelming air superiority; without that massive advantage, we would see far higher casualties. I also suspect the average American today is far less patriotic than people were 40 or 50 years ago, and many would leave the military if losses began to mount. There’s a reason the U.S. has never seriously threatened China militarily, it’s a matter of respect for the consequences

I think China’s military is to a much lesser degree a paper tiger like Russia. The Chinese have great intelligence agency but technologically they’re so similar to the Soviets. They copy the west’s designs meanwhile the west is 3 iterations ahead because they’re actually innovating.

yeah, I don't believe that anymore.

We will likely lose badly.
Our manufacturing capability is shot and we're aiming for long shots with Anduril or the Primes.
Our ability to procure rare earth materials is impacted by our beef with China.
Both Russia and China massive outproduce in producing weapons of war.

We have key tools and deterrents like Nukes and the B2s but outside of that, we're like a revolver.
Hard to reload once you spend those shells especially when the other guy has a tommy gun with a belt feed.

Their have a real manufacturing base and are literally smoking us on building key products.

This is a very real fear, I'm not going to give up what I do or who I work for but yeah man, I legit don't think
we'd last very long against a competent foe. We're already being outdone by a much weaker adversary with
considerably less capable tools (Iran).

AI has changed the game. We’re so far ahead.

No, they’ve actually surpassed the United States technologically in several key areas. Their capabilities are nothing like the old Soviet systems. China now has the world’s largest navy and more advanced air and sea based drone technology. Fortunately for everyone, they are not an aggressive or bloodthirsty people like we are. And before you bring up ai China is ahead of us in ai

He got charged up to go on this dummy mission, he won't recover from this.

The illegal socialist transexual migrant wave that comes to the border in October trick won’t even work this time

 

[Robbie3000]

The surgical operation of the US military is impressive as fukk.
There is only 1 superpower in this world.

This aint the flex you think it is. For one trillion dollars a year, we get a military that has to leave some 3rd world country in shame every 20-30 years so.

Just think if we put only half of that to good use.

They are not at all ahead of us on AI. Deepseek is so emblematic of these regimes. Copies of American products that are way cheaper and way less useful. We don’t know what private models the Chinese have, but considering we have OpenAI, anthropic, xAI, I’m not in the least worried. They are large yes. But I think they’re an entire iteration behind us militarily where Russia would be like 5 iterations

Straits of Hormuz is a no go. Them gas prices about to

Electric gang dare I say we have what a dumb ass poster is best known for saying….vindication

 

[ADevilYouKhow]

Damn shifting from the Iran copium to the China copium. That was quick. Like actually fast.
