These conservative galaxy brains saying we should just pull American troops out of South Korea so that they’re destroyed by North Korea in retribution for sanctions, and think they’re brilliant military strategists without considering -what would happen next-… 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♂️🤦🙈🙄
Yes, America, famous for taking military actions with no secondary motivations.
I saw some dude bragging he was super smart for knowing we are participating in the defense of South Korea because he -took a class at a War College-. They should have taped him to a chair for the 200 level.
Aren’t these people supposed to like war games? Go get your board out and see what happens when you suddenly completely destabilize a key strategic, economic, and logistical ally and staging point in an otherwise mostly unfriendly region with spiderweb politics. I’ll wait.
jaark@hacks4pancakes You are maybe expecting these people to be able to think about anything other than the immediate short term effects.
Big problem with the world is that very few in politics seem to be able or willing to think or plan long-term either right now.

Too complicated. All they know is battlefield strategies. Take that tank there, block these entrances, create a choke point, snipers on elevated positions.
...and nobody walks into this well designed trap. Well, to bad, but here is an B for efford. Next time leave the tanks out, create the blockage in the last second with explosives and then sprinkle some landmines on top to show that you mean business...
(no, please don't)
Colman Reilly@hacks4pancakes I know that and my military expertise is all based on space elves.
Faraiwe@hacks4pancakes sigh.
War college has always been a dumpster fire of idiocy and so has west point.
The whole of it.
@faraiwe I mean I took a couple good AWC classes but it’s a strange place
@hacks4pancakes because of what I do/did, in both academia and uniform, I was taking grad classes along peeps attending war college, at a external entity, a INR dept at a university.
They were hardly catching up, and astonished at the "deepestesth cuts" of knowledge being dished out at 5xxx level classes.
My other experiences, besides AWC, dealing with west pointers has NOT improved my views on the matter.
Those institutions need razed, are beyond any saving prospects. All caveats here.
@hacks4pancakes I may be a bit bitter about it.
DROP\ TABLE Hacker of Earthsea@hacks4pancakes cause the first step in alliance is building mistrust and abusing the other party. because friends hurt eachother XD
