SignUp Now!Nah fuck all that! We will take em on if we have to, with our maafackin pitchforks!
Agree, on all but it is his speech writers. Joe likes to speak off the cuff and is horrible at it. What we saw here was a feeble old man rambling......This statement is so ignorant. I get that he is saying the US Military has superior firepower. This is true. But a few factors to consider:
US Citizens outnumber the US Military almost 300 to 1. Let's say half of those are conservative, and only half of the conservatives are willing to fight. That's still 75 to 1.
US Military is composed of US Citizens, and while there would certainly be a contingent who would remain loyal if asked to attack their own countrymen, there would surely be a lot who would go AWOL or create subterfuge from within to protect their own friends and family.
Nukes? Really? Is that his threat? What is he going to do? Nuke his own country? And even if he does, where will he send the nukes? It makes the most sense to bomb large cities to get the most people, but guess who would be the least likely to rebel... Large cities who are typically left-leaning. He would be nuking his loyal followers.
F15s, Nukes, Artillery, Tanks, etc. are most definitely a technological advantage and that advantage is not to be taken lightly, but to think that millions of armed citizens are not a threat because we don't possess that technology is incredibly ignorant.
As y'all said above, his speech writers are probably trolling, or worse yet, trying to demoralize the public and undermine their understanding of the need for personal armament, but still. This is just embarrassing.
Honestly, there is no restriction on bearing arms. You could interpret that to mean any weapon. Obviously that hasn’t been the message from our government, but has this been challenged constitutionally? In theory, I do have the right to bear a nuclear weapon.So the country that rebelled against a tyrannical government set down rules that assured that people couldn't defend themselves against a tyrannical government..... I'm calling bullshit.
Adams v. WilliamsHonestly, there is no restriction on bearing arms. You could interpret that to mean any weapon. Obviously that hasn’t been the message from our government, but has this been challenged constitutionally? In theory, I do have the right to bear a nuclear weapon.
Beyond that, you have a number of support personnel for those vehicles. Engine maintenance, refueling, weapons loading, radar, communication, etc. I'm not in the military, but I know that fighter pilot is not fueling or arming his plane. Could he if he needed to? Maybe, someone with knowledge/experience come correct me if I'm wrong.This statement is so ignorant. I get that he is saying the US Military has superior firepower. This is true.

My brother has flight deck responsibilities while also being a mechanic.Beyond that, you have a number of support personnel for those vehicles.

Yeah, you're probably right about that.Agree, on all but it is his speech writers. Joe likes to speak off the cuff and is horrible at it. What we saw here was a feeble old man rambling......

This is why populism is the way.There’s never been a left leaning revolution in an advanced economy. Normally what happens is the right seizes control and executes the bureaucrats.
Now if we had a pure rightist revolution in this country, they very well could become as annoying as the left. What we need is an American Revolution 2.0 where the good elites had enough of the shit from the bad elites and made this place a stable community.
This is why populism is the way.
Well of course not for you. You consider yourself an elitist.Hell no. Not for me. Populism is just meandering mob rule and filling up some populist's pocket.
Issue is that the modern equation to wealth has flipped with technology. Only way to make a labor based manufacturing economy profitable is to subsidize the material and pay borderline slave wages and work crazy hours. That's the only way human hands can out compete automation.
The answer isn't to "bring back jobs." Those jobs left already and the world has changed. Answer is the retooling of the American worker. I listened to Bannon's silly podcast about bringing manufacturing back and paying workers more and all that shit. A manufactured product is no different than a white collar service if both help towards one single goal, the accumulation of capital. You obviously can't accumulate capital in this country waiting tables. And that's where the glitch is. Schools teaching the right skills to provide our workers with a tangible value add in their ability to accumulate capital.
Dirty secret is manufacturing is coming back to this country, and it actually started under Obama. However it's machines and within the next 10 years their is going to be an automation revolution. America better learn to code or they won't have enough money to own the machines.
Refute Joe Biden? 1st 2 rebuttals that instantly come to mind-
Keyboard is mightier than the F15/nukeInformation is better than a bomb. They want our tongues silenced
