I think I’ve figured Ian Welsh out. He’s just angry he’s not an American.
That makes a ton of sense, when you think about it. We tend to vilify what we deeply, deeply want and can never have. Poor Ian.
America Fuck Yeah
Done
I love big-ass windmills, solar power installations glinting in the noon bright, Starlink satellites streaming across the sky.
It all means we are Getting. Shit. Done.
Pro Duck
We are cookin’ with plasma now. What the hell happened?
Tankies
Our equipment mostly rocks the mic like a vandal, no matter what some leftist doofbags claim. Yeah, sure, the T-64 is a great tank if you like your whole army dying in like 0.02 seconds when hit with an RPG or a brisk wind.
If there had been a shooting war during the Cold War, we would’ve tore up the USSR’s shit like a cat with a roll of toilet paper. And unfortunately we might yet get that chance in 2030 or so.
F-35 No Jive
Hot damn. That is pretty amazing. Those air defense systems are actually great and defeating them is not trivial.
Bound
For a very large, developed economy, the US is fuckin’ rocking it.
Gonna
I like that philosophy. That’s pretty much been the ethos of my life.
Charged
The UK leccy prices are wild. No wonder no one can afford a damn thing over there.
Build
Degrowth is a horror show. Let’s build stuff. A lot of it.
Land
We should’ve bought Greenland. It’s always nice to have one or two of them in reserve.
Accipitridae
Hailey Welsh does seem like a genuinely fun, authentic person. Like someone you’d want to be friends with. Well, at least I would. She saw her shot and took it. Competently, I might add. There’s nothing more American than that.
7s
Dang. WHERE Y’ALL AT?
Pol
It’s amazing what some fuckin’ industrial policy can do.
Eurnope
Dang, Europe got more problems than a mackerel that showed up at the shark convention by accident. Demographic-related, immigration-related, stagnation-related, war-related. They are fucked.
It makes America’s prospects look rosy by comparison.
Europe Clip
Yeah, I used to believe that too. But it’s not true; American workers are shockingly productive compared to European ones, even when you take hours worked into account. And having worked for a German company in the past, I can see exactly why (too long to go into here).
