  • I know this sounds like a very stretched analogy at first glance, but it’s like a baker trying to prosecute people for smelling their products from outside. But if you think about it, these media companies are literally sending their information out into the air and getting upset when people just listen to that information. Like a smell, internet data is just out there in the air and it’s just unreasonable to prosecute people for either smelling or downloading stuff that’s permeating the atmosphere. Maybe tape recording radio songs is a tighter analogy but it’s the same idea.









  • Because winning an offensive war is much much harder than winning a defensive war. Nobody defends anything better than they defend their homeland. Same reason russia can’t win the war in Ukraine. That’s why the first gulf war in early 90s was won too. US was fighting to defend Kuwait from Iraqi invasion. Once the US forced Iraqi army back to their side of the border, they negotiate a ceasfire. They only fought the war defensively alongside Kuwaiti fighters in Kuwait.


  • I mean they’ve bombed the shit out of countries before, e.g. Vietnam. It didn’t win them any wars since WW2 as you said. And yes there’s definitely massive corruption happening in the MIC, no doubt. Im just saying, if it were up to trump he would have nuked tehran, someone had to tell him it wasn’t gonna happen. (He literally talked about nuking a hurricane at a public televised press conference in the past.)
