I wonder if there was an “incident” we aren’t aware of that prompted this, like the snafu with Tesla employees sharing videos.
I do agree however that the eradication efforts of both caused significantly more good than harm, no question.
But… why?
This would drive the development of new farming methods and research into different classes of chemicals.
Bit of a misnomer.
That seems to be a very valid reason to not send someone on a space mission.
Get out of here.
The US desperately needs to stop feeding the MIC and Wall Street and to reindustrialize the US economy, because we are simply not able to produce anywhere near as much missiles, shells, tanks, etc to fight the war the US wants to fight. The current combined yearly shell production capacity of Germany and the US is less than half of Russia’s alleged production capability, and they just signed a deal with NK that will likely increase their production capacity by a good 50% at least.
The US has been involved in one proxy war after another with Russia for decades. It’s just standard US foreign policy, and it simply can’t be denied - US ISR is providing actual strike targeting information.
Regardless, it’s just more of the same. See: Vietnam, Ethiopia/Somalia, Afghanistan, and half a dozen others.
Proxy wars are just the way that wars are going to be fought between peer/near-peer powers, because a full blown confrontation risks global catastrophe.
Ukraine was just foolish enough to sign up for the role of “US’s cannon fodder” in the never ending US-Russia war.
When - not if - when, China ends up getting involved, we will likely see a shift from a unipolar world to a multipolar world and the end of US hegemony and European colonialism.
I’m sure I’ll get flagged for going against the Russia bad US good narrative though.
A nugget Bezos seems to have forgotten.
