I’m just suspicious because your use of MAGA as an insult while praising Donald Trump is so absurdly inconsistent it looks like deliberate dishonesty.

As an aside, what’s your opinion on the war in Ukraine?

1. Other people in the thread have listed the concrete actions Trump has taken abandoning all pressure Biden put on Israel.
2. There was a previous ceasefire while Biden was in office, and the current one was made under a framework created by the Biden administration.
3. Israel has started an offensive in the West Bank.
4. Do you honestly believe things would have gone better had Trump been in office for the entire war?

Bold of you to accuse people of being MAGA while actively praising Trump.

Calling for ethnic cleansing is better?

What are the chances Republicans were pressuring Netanyahu to delay a ceasefire until after the election, like they did in the Iran hostage crisis?

The Biden administration has given an ultimatum threatening to stop military aid if aid to northern Gaza doesn’t increase, with a deadline shortly after the election.

And does voting stop you doing the other things?

They say as if their position is any better for Palestinians either.

I cannot comprehend how this guy is favoured 52-48 to win.

None of these folks are capable of manufacturing modern nitrocellulose gun powder or primer caps necessary to reload their fancy rifles and handguns.

This gave me a thought, would having equipment for ammonia and other chemicals (for fertiliser as well as explosives) be useful for preppers?

That can be delayed for a long time by stockpiling spare parts.

As well as spreading and planting seeds, clearing competing plants, and providing water and nutrients.

Chickens are the most numerous bird on the planet, wheat covers more land area than any other plant.

I evolutionary terms being edible to humans is quite useful.

Tesla isn’t even in the top 10 for either cars produced or revenue. It being the highest valued car manufacturer in the world is just empty hype.

It’s been well reported on that Russia doesn’t work like that, with junior officers unable to use initiative and the whole system being very slow to respond to changing events. The reason it operates like this was shown when they did try having a more independent unit, which resulted in the Wagner Group mutinying.

That’s standard in Western militaries. It means units aren’t paralyzed by unexpected circumstances while they wait for communication to go up and down the chain of command, and it improves resilience if communications or senior officers are incapacitated.

More often dictators take control of the church and use it for propaganda.
