Wandering philosopher who stumbled into a MEPS, pursuing the true meaning of "warrior." Beware of "profession of arms" nerds who are only good at losing wars.

"Even Heaven had to go to war to protect its peace. Never apologize for drawing a line that kindness couldn't hold."

Counterpoint: "International Law" is just how we explain the United States Navy to children and invalids, and the Navy ain't gonna do anything to stop him.
🇭🇹🇸🇻 À ceux qui pensent que Nayib Bukele peut intervenir militairement en Haïti à la suite de la «disparition » des quatre militaires salvadoriens, je tiens à rappeler ceci :
La volonté légitime du président salvadorien de sauver ses quatre militaires ne saurait justifier une intervention militaire unilatérale en Haïti, en violation de sa souveraineté nationale.
La lutte contre les gangs ne saurait devenir un prétexte pour contourner le droit international. Toute opération militaire doit s’inscrire dans un cadre juridique clairement établi, conformément au mandat de la Force de répression des gangs (FRG) et aux dispositions de la Charte des Nations unies.
La gravité de la situation sécuritaire en Haïti ne suspend ni le droit international ni la souveraineté du pays.

College professor left completely stumped after @KaiSchwemmer started talking in Spanish after the professor said he welcomed mass migration.
Schwemmer: Would it be an issue if every city spoke a different language?
Professor: No.
Schwemmer: "Entonces sería bastante difícil si estuviéramos hablando, entendernos, porque nosotros no podemos entender lo que estamos diciendo y no podemos alcanzar tener respeto mutuo."
Brilliant.

J’ai entendu dire que la France était finie, qu’il était trop tard pour la sauver.
Mais la France est toujours aussi belle, enviable même. Sa grandeur n’a pas disparu, elle ne demande qu’à renaître.
Nous avons surmonté en un an un problème cent fois plus grave, sans avoir les moyens dont dispose la France.
La France pourrait y arriver en une semaine.

Clay Martin was a Force Recon Marine on 9/11. Then one speech from the top made about 60% of the recon community WALK AWAY 🤦
"What I told him is that you guys aren't ready to go to war as a force."

These movies are all supposed to be subversive deconstructions of Western myth, but they're clearly semi-autobiographical, lovingly told, sympathetic, even self-pitying - the recrimination is all clearly in the first person
Which is supposed to have something to do with violence or GWOT or something but none of the writers were anywhere near any of that
I think these people just come from a wicked culture, & have all kinds of other guilt, about other kinds of deceit & cowardice & cruelty, & that's what they bring to their sincere attempts to engage with these stories

While being attached to an F-18 Hornet for deployment in an air mission above Afghanistan, a U.S. Navy bomb is defaced by an unidentified sailor with the words “HIGH JACK THIS FAGS.”
A photograph of the bomb sparks outrage from the American gay community, and the press is calling the ordinance the “fag bomb.”

Two of the most typical responses on this post are
“Muh America never wins wars”
And
“Muh but we have to keep military tradition even if it holds us back”
It’s a little poetic bc that just reenforces my point that D&C is retarded. This “military tradition” is loser shit.
You look at your favorite goyball team they don’t spend days/weeks walking around to show case their capabilities and prowess. Wars are just a game of winners and losers and who can outperform each other on every level.

"The new (sexual) ethic requires upholding the dignity and respect of the human being involved."
oh my god, just get married
A senior at Harvard observes “a narrative emerging among young people that more than just consent is required to make a sex act ethical.”
“In the Cornell Daily Sun, a student says fraternities function as ‘a market, where women are seen as commodities.’”
“A Dartmouth contributor lambasts frat culture where brothers ‘humiliate and degrade’ and that teaches ‘men to treat women and each other like subhuman objects.’”
“The emerging picture is of a sexual ethic that cannot be satisfied simply by one liberal-autonomous agent assenting to the action of another. The new ethic requires upholding the dignity and respect of the human being involved. Respecting women is incompatible with drug-fueled orgies where the ‘shop’ is ‘open,’ regardless of how consensual said orgy may or may not be.”

Good morning, go to your local gas station, check if they’re reselling great value (Walmart exclusive) food products.
If they are, report them for fraud.
9 times out of ten they’re using food stamps to stock the shelves.
They get 100% profit and you get to pay twice.
A peculiar dissonance occurs when moderate, peace-loving civilians unwittingly live under a blanket of security provided by the most ruthless means. The dissonance is aggravated when those citizens join the mil and get a front row seat.
