It's your world to lose now, I know ya'll have a great faith in unleashing everything and letting those good times roll us out of the mess we're in. Good luck with it.

I won't even bother trying to understand your logic here... Anyone who can characterize any of this as hilarious though might be entertained by the fact that some people in California are actually talking like seasoned soldiers now. Some of the dreamers have awakened and they're looking at things like terrain, weather, and the lineup of opposing forces with a critical eye. They even seem to acknowledge that incompetent people don't realize the extent of their own incompetence. Without a trail of shit, Robo and Herb can't track a damn thing. Before long these folks will be talking about selection and maintenance of the aim, unity of command and all round defence as if they considered them important the whole time. This may be a turning point for some, it's tragic that only experience can bring that about. https://www.foxnews.com/video/6366887835112 Edited January 11 by Venandi Quote

I made it very clear exactly who it was that I was characterizing and mocking and why. If you're suggesting you seasoned warriors on the right are finally getting woke I'm afraid it just won't matter. It'll still take decades more for you people to get over your ridiculous preoccupation with all things left wing before you become effective at doing anything else.

All I want is some common sense, the ability to turn an obvious threat assessment into a workable defence plan... I'll even settle for a good effort. If you accept global warming as a given and believe the dangers you articulate in support of that opinion are true, you have zero excuse for the lack of preparation on display here.

Those seasoned warriors you sarcastically refer to never were woke to begin with. If you can't look around, asses a threat and create a reasonable plan to address it you need to find a new job. I'm not looking for perfection here, but in the scenario debrief you had better be able to articulate what you were thinking. Blaming climate change for massive incompetence doesn't work for me and in the near future, I think you'l see that it doesn't work for California voters either. Edited January 11 by Venandi Quote

Were you seriously expecting a different result here? No the reality of how far we've pushed against the limits of sustainability is unfolding exactly like I expected. So too is how utterly ineffective our politics are for dealing with it. You know how I often say society was a sitting duck for COVID? You haven't seen anything yet when it comes to dealing with rapid anthropogenic climate change. 5 minutes ago, User said: Well, you must live in an underground bunker with only limited access to this forum to make dumb arguments.

The world was here before the left and the world will be here after. The left destroys countries and cultures not the world. They certainly did a number on Canada in case you weren't paying attention 5 minutes ago, eyeball said: You don't believe lowering tax cuts results in more revenue? You're so woke. I think you're too stupid to really explain this to. It would be like explaining quadratic equations to a chihuahua. You over exaggerate your lack of understanding to try and make it look like you're being sarcastic but in reality you just don't understand. And you say these things now because what you want to do down the road is play a little game where the government cuts GST and life gets easier for people and then you get to scream "but you promised that it would generate massive revenue as well!" when you were the only one who said that. Cutting certain taxes appropriately can indeed results in more revenues for governments. Our part certainly prove that. Excessive taxes can definitely reduce revenues for governments. Trudeau has proved that. It is entertaining to watch you pretend that you're very stupid to cover up the fact that you're fairly stupid Quote

Doesn't seem to be true. I mean hell you thought the carbon tax would solve everybody's problems. Sounds like you spent seven years occasionally bringing the subject up and then demanding that all polluters wear body cameras 24/7 and wandered off to do something else. 2 hours ago, eyeball said: And throughout it all there were people exactly like you.. Who demand you actually present the science you claim exists which you and every other leftie on this board have refused to do despite multiple people asking? How annoying it must be for you to actually have to prove your assertions have validity. Hell the feds didn't even put in a target for what reductions there'd be with the carbon tax and didn't establish any way to monitor it and you were just fine with it. IF the big thing that tripped you up is you couldn't prove your claims.... well the problem MIGHT not have been the people asking for the proof. Quote
