    If I’m not mistaken, the US spends more on military than the rest of NATO combined. How do you imagine a military engagement against the US would end for us?

        It doesn’t quite feel right for other countries have to send their citizens to fight and die against a former ally just because American citizens can’t hold their government accountable.

          depopulate is a pretty weird way to say “genocide”….

          i, from my armchair, think it’s more about “hearts and minds”… as in, according to the us army guerilla warfare handbook, a guerilla army is impossible to defeat if they are well supported by the populace.

          they can always disappear into someone’s home, and can always get new supplies….
          well, unless you genocide the entire country….
