This is all because people have no idea about machinations of U.S. internal politics. He's the senator from Maryland. Baltimore, home to the largest Greek diaspora in U.S., is in Maryland. He's just trying to soothe his constituents and make sure they continue to vote for him. Otherwise if that...

Reminding people of this old piece. https://www.timesofisrael.com/defense-minister-its-not-good-for-israel-if-other-countries-get-f-35/

You see what I meant is kind of the opposite of that. You don't hire Marxists as China to do your propaganda. All aspects of that operation ooze amateurism. You help an Indian magnate of sorts and help him establish media targeting Hindutvas, hire known Indian pundits who may question, say...

It says he's a Marxist who was pushing Chinese propaganda. Does that mean he was defending China in Indian media?

See how weird and crazy she looks when saying that? Now, it wouldn't look as crazy if you knew that Nancy Pelosi has read the article below the day before about Code Pink and its relations to a shady Chinese philanthropist...

If we can indigenously design and manufacture many of the subsystems for Kaan, our helicopters, naval vessels, variety of munitions and ew and comms systems, it's not because our defense companies and our engineers are getting divine revelation about the know-how of these cutting edge...

Well, yeah. Too much of it actually if you ask me.

Production phase reaching, or even ending LRIP is not a sign of full reliability, or the plane being tried and true.

3 years is a very short amount of time for trying to make a new plane reliable.

Yeah, it should have been acquired by now; A prototype Kaan as testbed is completely out of the question, as you need a very safe platform to test, with reinforced airframe and such and you need also a testbed that you can push to its limits with very experienced pilots. None of these factors...

That's actually how most testbeds are. They use safe tried and true engines of the testbed itself in one position and mount the other with the test engine.

It's alright. Forgot to mention that you are right that many other factors are involved. Mate choice is not as simple as I make it out to be and resource accumulation also doesn't necessitate patriotically as such, but you gotta do toy models first to then be able to engage with nuances.

Within the purview of primatology, the mate choice lies with females in a neutral environment, because women make almost all of the investment in the reproduction process. Competition is between males. Cultural practices stemming from neolithic farming transition which facilitated accumulation...

But I'd like to hear more about what you mean here. I think I kind of understand but if you elaborated more concretely I'd understand more what is meant by this. I think this is an important issue, which will be a deciding factor in politics of many countries in the coming decades as this war...

Maybe you're right, but in my experience the idea of having this ideological reaction based on perceived privileges is too high-brow of a reason. I think humanity works more viscerally. From my personal experience the frustration and the trend is specific to very young men and very young women...

Meaning since females choose which male to be with (unless economic independence trends reverse), it's the males who will have to meet females where they stand in the end. They might resist for a while, but resistance will be futile and their hands will be forced. This will not happen to one...

Many don't realize that this is an anthropological dilemma created mostly by the Internet and neo-liberal economic order which influences residence patterns, and the reinforcement role that social media algorithms play in solidifying default gender-specific attitudes has sped this up. If...

Good stuff, keep it going boys! Free Texas. YEEHAW.

I agree with many points here as I was not arguing that Pax Americana is going to stay here for centuries. That sentence was about west's power. Pax Americana as a political order is already in its death throes, and will be dead in a decade or two. What I was arguing was that in the ensuing cold...

All China is trying to do by making it seem like they are very aggressively and possibly militarily pursuing unification is to create a fear of imminent invasion of Taiwan in U.S., making them slowly retreat from positions feigning military support for Taiwan; since China knows an engagement...
