The US could mop the floor with anyone they wanted, but aside from playing policeman with a bunch of goatfuckers we really have no reason to attack anyone except maybe North Korea.

USA would easily beat Russia 1-on-1 but bruh against multiple countries nobody would win.
Also what Loonikus said.

because best korea is the laughing stock of everything they take part in

the only thing that could legitimately affect the US in a war is a direct attack on big cities or a nuclear attack (or both)
both are unlikely unless grorius reader has a death wish or putin feels like bringing back communism

I feel weird. Perhaps I've watched too much dramatic stuff or played too many violent video games (/sarc) but I'd actually love to see World War III, regardless of the outcomes.
I dunno, I just love the concept of Alliances and battles. I wouldn't get involved though, I'm a massive wimp and fighting isn't my style.
Another semi related thing I desire is the rebuilding of the British Empire but that's just patriotism I assume.

Odd question but, does anyone also feel this way? or is it more shit to add to my pile of "Reasons I'm weird"?

Why does North Korea have so many submarines? Its nearest opponent is across a land border, and its nearest opponent's supporters have the biggest air force in the world. (USA USA)

Also TIL not even 15 countries have militaries notable on a scale compared to America's. (USA USA)

Some of this is a bit off but it's healthy to have a bit of power lust for glorious Empire... right? Sure.

ACTUALLY I was just thinking about something notable earlier today with the whole Ukraine crisis. The single instance I can think of where two nations, both of which in possession of nuclear missiles, went to war was India-Pakistan in the 1990s, which was rather limited.

I figured. I used to hate death, just as a concept, Heck I cried when the janitor at my primary school (Whom I'd never spoken to) died.
But I don't really care anymore. I get that this desire is weird but eh, it is what it is.

I personally think we should retake Africa and bring back apartheid because the blacks have clearly demonstrated they are unable to manage and run a civilised country they've inherited.

The thought of crawling through a swamp in Florida searching for Bubba and his Libertarian militia is reminding me of my Dads Vietnam War stories.

Kavaloosh I've never done shit to you, we don't interact because we don't know each other.

I recall an instance in which someone (Don't remember the name, not sure it was you but since noone else has apparently been holding a grudge all this time I assume it was you) came in ask for me under that name, to which Muskets immediately banned the person. Yes it made me uncomfortable, And although I'm glad she did (as it relieved me) I didn't ask her to do so.

yeah that was me, fag, didn't know you switched genders in your mind's eye back then and was messing with you while trying to talk to coderbus about what they had done recently and you blew it way out of proportion, i always wondered why you switched names until i heard it first from you yourself

I'm fairly certain I didn't say or do anything towards you at the time, and as I said, I didn't ask for you to be banned. I could help get you unbanned if you want to go there and talk but the way you're talking to me isn't very nice so I don't see why I'd do so.

you did, what you said to me had a direct impact, but there's nothing to be done. /tg/station is a wretched shell of its former self, filled with coders who don't actually play the game, (like yourself), remove features, nerf things, and put in bay-like policies to further 'help' the station, were through here.

I do play. I play on Basil/Badger because I like the players and interaction there. Funnily enough I had to explain this to someone else today aswell.
While the "Coders don't play" meme may be true for 1 or 2 in the bus, it certainly doesn't cover us all, not by a long shot.

If you want to talk/discuss getting you unbanned my steam is in my sig.

i've only ever seen you before you were a coder, but i guess we don't like talking about him, do we? also you spelled quote wrong

So I did (Hilariously I wrote that [/quote] out manually because everytime I hit "preview" or "submit" it replaced it with two closing tags.
You saw me before I was a coder? funnily enough I played LESS back then.

Also my ckey isn't well known, I only added it to my forum profile about 2 weeks ago(?) and now it's blank because of the new linking feature.
and if "Not at all, ever" is the last week or so, you'd be right, I haven't played in the last week because of college work and a friend requesting I spend my time doing something else.
on top of that SS13 requires a lot of me emotionally (On top of being broken in that way, I'm also extremely shy)

I didn't feel like purging half the thread, even if it was off topic, it would fill half a page with deleted stuff.

Back on topic: Why don't we have more subs in America? Also noting, this chart doesn't take into account equipment or training and other various things. I guess because it's military, it's hard to measure that.
