Tbh, it makes an amusing amount of sense, considering the data cutoff for a lot of LLMs

lol this fuckin guy

I am pretty certain they’ll find a way to jury rig the IRIS-T and whatever Fox-3’s the French gave them onto the Viper. And I’m furthermore pretty certain that knowledge will percolate to the rest of the EU, so that any other Viper operators can’t be held hostage as easily by the cavalcade of fecal matter that is our government.

I mean… possibly.

One of the possible outcomes here is civil war, potentially followed by balkanization of the US. Or, the beginning of a fascist regime here, utterly divorced in all meaningful ways from our (deeply flawed, but still somewhat democratic) current system, with simmering insurgency that will stretch on for decades. Or, some fragments of our government regain enough sanity and backbone to actually fight back against the fascists. Or any number of other insane scenarios that would have gotten you laughed out of the room as recently as 9 years ago (or, in some deeply oblivious circles, 2 months ago).

But one thing’s for damn sure: Pax Americana is done. I genuinely do not see how US foreign policy and soft power bounces back from this. We no longer lead the free world in any meaningful sense (that’s not a jingoistic reminiscence - it’s commentary that any shred of credibility we had on that front is entirely gone now).

This is a direct result of Trump cutting off intel. It’s fucking unconscionable. I’ve never been this embarrassed and ashamed to be an American.

Also American. I fully and emphatically agree.

I’m fine. We’re fine. We’re all fine here. How are you?

Thankfully, no crime was committed

I’ve seen reports from USAF trainers. A lot of them would comment on how the Ukrainians were just ALWAYS ready to go and absolutely, categorically motivated, to a man. The esprit de corps is frankly impressive and admirable. And absolutely understandable, in the context.

Fuckin rad.

Also, to all of the fucking dipshits who dug in their heels about “oh it’s gonna be so hard to train them on an F-16”: these fucking mirages are a good bit more up to date than the Vipers they got, from what I’ve seen. And they went from “yeah maybe they’ll get some of these” to flying intercept missions in like 6 months.

Wow, that’s crazy. Something something best defense is a good offense

I’m guessing this is probably a direct result of the intel cutoff. Fucking infuriating.

Is this guy fuckin serious lmao

Many DoD and government missions don’t release flight plans publicly.

Also, if a squadron on air defense alert was scrambled for some reason, that’s not gonna have a flight plan attached to it, because they’re by definition responding to a thing and can’t really define their flight plan as “I’m departing from A, routing through to B to C, and landing at D”.

I mean, I’m not shocked. I’m pretty sure they’re just plugging a bunch of hastily trained LLMs in as mods and admins at this point.

Fucking LOL. Holy shit. That’s incredible.

Do not worry. Though we send your husband to meat grinder, we will give you meat grinder as compensation.

Is this the start of the second Reddit exodus? Maybe the normies will finally start leaving in meaningful numbers.

Wow, sure would be a shame if someone steganographically embedded all the info into a bunch of meme images and then posted them, wouldn’t it?
