It's a fair point that US chattel slavery was arguably unrivaled in brutality in history (certainly modern history)...but yeah there are segments of US ag that have significant elements of force/compulsion that I wouldn't compare it to chattel slavery, but I dunno if "slave" is inappropriate

It wasn't a tAcTiCaL mIsCaLcUlAtIoN it was a baked in assessed cost of doing this war
now the one area where there is a story here is almost certainly the reason they said no more generally is anduril is selling some piece of shit that doesn't work for that mission, but that's separate from the war

this discourse is going to make me the joker
we don't really need UKR stuff bc we have APKWS and 9Xs, contrary to whatever lies pete/dan are spewing none of this was a "surprise" (it may have been a higher cost than what pete/dan were willing to tell the WH, which is different from a "surprise")

they request airline specific ground stops just for wx all the time lol (although that'll usually be limited to hub(s) impacted by wx, nationwide is probably some system shit the bed)

Contrary to what the dumbest one and done former E-4 you know has confidently asserted since the beginning of time, "use it or lose it" is not how anyone in DoD actually does financial management, and the food is for DFACs

or at least they were slavers until they voted for the govt to come jail and/or otherwise run off all the people they'd been exploiting, and now they're filling their diapers about one of the few alternatives to keep that business model viable absent available slave labor, because they're idiots

this all makes much more sense when you realize the people described here aren't """farmers,""" as society understands them (which no longer exist in the US) but are actually a combination of petit bourgeois+slavers who haven't performed a day of honest work in their lives

as I've said for a while now, the entire plan and theory of victory is, 100% accurately, described as "I dunno bomb stuff I guess"
near perfect tactical execution all things considered, operationally incoherent, and strategically vacant, that's the DoD/USG promise

To be clear, the DoD does not actually want your good for nothing kids, we love the AVF, this administration just says crazy shit. They just thought this would sound cool as part of their "nothing is off the table" talking point.

3) is Stringer; he tries to make it to 2 and whoopsie daisy
I'm a little fuzzy on who a straight 2 would be....maybe D'Angelo is 2 instead of 1? But I think that's underselling his nepotism aspects
