    If your a civilian you want to be on the US front, if your a soldier you want to be on the Russian front.

            Idk man, the beheadings, crucifictions and other genocide in Ukraine seems quite distasteful too

              I agree, but we haven’t seen the depravity that will be encouraged by the new fascist leaders. I am desperately hoping that getting rid of Medicare will piss enough military people off that they won’t defend him.

                VA benefits are distinct from Medicare (which is distinct from Medicaid). Cutting Medicare (the one for old people) isn’t going to do much to active service members. Nor, I think, will cutting Medicaid (the one for poor people).

                  I agree not directly, and while these people may be severely stunted in empathy, they do have it for those in their immediate circle. If their parents lose their money and health, they may care.

                  Not certain. These ghouls are able to contort anything into anything it seems.

                  Correct. It’s the cuts to the VA that’ll piss them off. The Medicaid cuts will piss them off because it’ll impact their families.

        Well, technically, there’s a small part of Limburg that remains free, but since we don’t really consider that area part of the country, it still counts.

        The dutch have different problems rn and the spaniards i belief given up on their dreams of a spanish ruled sea.

        (Fun fact that i just HAVE TO tell. I got to see the original battle plan maps from the spanish armadas battle against the english near Portsmouth, in the Portsmouth Naval Museum in 2023. They take them out to display under special light only every 50 or 80 or so decades the historian there told me. It was soo cool!!! And i had a real big autism hyperfocus with adhd hyperactive moment!!! To think i almost didnt go there if my boyfriend didnt take me!)

              The closest I ever got to something that old was a contemporary copy of the US Declaration of Independence; that’s brand new compared to what you saw.

                I own a bullet from the 17th-18th century and well being in a roman city, you cant build anything or dig anywhere without first giving archeologists the front run at digging.

    I’m a manufacturing engineer specialized in machining exotic alloys and complex parts, even though I have changed career a few years ago I have experience in manufacturing complex military parts.

    So I would probably be in a factory trying to produce as much military equipment as possible.

      It really bugs me that I’m “in the same boat”, actually.

      Like, if they needed a guy to just man a watchtower or something I’d volunteer the shit out of that. I’m pretty powerless when it comes to other things though.

    Tough question, defend my homeland from the historic genociders trying to finish the job and end up drone bombing senile old men glued onto mules to form human wave cavalry charges is my ancestral duty. Then again the option to sit around in the beautiful france countryside and wait in a bush near the fake mcdonalds for americans.

    Since its the north of France, I gotta say eastern fronts work from home is more attractive.

    What would Russia want with Vosges I wonder. To answer your question, probably Belgium. At least I can contemplate death with a good beer sliding down my oesophagus.

    People joke. But I’m power lifting again and joined the three plate bench club for the first time in 18 years. Just because I’m prepping for MAGA’s to show up and put me in a camp for my ADHD or collect my autistic godson. The amount of hurt that would fall upon people who try to do it. Will be on a level not screen in nearly 160 years in this country.

    Don’t forget the two fronts the US would be fighting across the Atlantic.
    Maybe 3 if those with interests in the Pacific get involved.
