Ike Warns of unchecked military industry.
May 25, 2020 at 6:01 pm
I have to be honest here, the last time I saw this, I didn't watch the entire speech, but finally did just now. Overall I still agree with his argument that we need a military, but we cannot let the public or private sector, or any sect of power let it get out of hand.
But at one point in the speech he negatively speaks of "atheists", pretty sure that is referring to the cold war post WW2 which is a fallacious argument. But outside that one dig he is right.
Speeches like Ikes, and Reagan, and JFK and Obama make the orange turd look like a babbling drooling toddler.

The speeches that a troop of adulescent howler monkeys makes would make orange turd look like a babbling drooling infant howler monkey.

Often there is no other appropriate response to the most recent thought vomit.

It's part of my plan to reduce pissing off Brian to a minimum. I reckon if I just give up a simple 'ok' as opposed to an in-depth critique of some of his posts, he's less likely to snap. If were to point out where he's gone wrong - no matter how politely I do it - he tends to lose control and go off into some fakakta diatribe about unrelated issues.
The success of the plan isn't particularly notable.
