That one wasn’t wrong about the subject matter, just had the implementation a little off.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If WWIII broke out tomorrow do you honestly believe america would win?
11·1 month agoThe question shows a fundamental misunderstanding of the purpose of war. The purpose of war is to defeat your enemy and make them lose, it was never about making you win.
Its not like a video game where you just deal enough damage or accumulate enough points and your adversaies give up to grant you a victory.
War is an eternal conflict until the last man is standing. Its never been about winning always about not losing.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If I publish my memoir and wrote about every bad thing people did to hurt me while the people mentioned are still alive, how much trouble could I get in?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you have strong opinions about universal basic income?
4·3 months agoYes. I think it’s a mediocre hack, and a better system would be Universal Basic Economic Seasons. Every season (year), everyone loses all of their liquid cash and debts and gains $100,000 of new cash for that year. Throughout the economic season you have to buy licenses and crap from the government to do business; which is the replacement for income tax and is how the government must engage with the system (since they’re effectively the ‘dealer’ they can’t engage with the system as a normal player) Then at the end of the year, we put all the richest people up on a leaderboard.
Prevents runaway rng from allowing corrupt business to take off, capital gained in dirty ways has a definite time limit because come next cycle people will have equal capital and can avoid your gimmicks. A good businessperson wouldn’t be build on one off lucky streaks, but rather true ability and skill that can be consistent repeated.
But UBI is close enough, and it’s easier to explain, and it requires significantly less market infrastructure to change.

I’m always assuming devils advocate whenever I see these posts. I gave up halfway through the first paragraph. The first time its nothing more than a distasteful joke and is ultimately probably pretty funny when all is said and done. The fourth time is a repeat offender and it was always intentional get the fuck out of there holy shit dawg RUN.

I do not believe that random internet strangers will be able to give you appropriate and constructive advice on this topic, no matter how well intentioned they might be. This requires a certified and trusted professional opinion. Knowing how volatile the internet can be, I strongly encourage you to seek help elsewhere if possible. At the very least, understand that we internet strangers are never who we claim to be, and 90% of us are bots anyways.

Soldiers are trained to believe they are a replaceable cog, and they have no agency. They’re collecting a paycheck and going to work like everyone else.
Its the same ethos as its always been: Pray you don’t get deployed before your contract is up, figure out how to delegate responsibility, and enjoy the ride to upper-poor class.
