EBU EU whats the difference?

If Australia can be part of the Eurovision song contest so It can be of the EU. Also everybody already asume anyway that you are just Austria.

A-tier shitpost 👍

nope

that’s the part where the existential dread sets in: Currently I only see a downwards spiral and absolutly idealessness on everyone how to stop it.

Also AfD 25%

And another 25% supporting a party that is adopting AfD narratives.

Faschism is back in germany.

For examply by increased range: Weapons that shoot down rockets/drones before they hit can protect a city or region.

nothin’ shooting down a nuke, just sain’

“Diplomatic Solution” is only viable if rulers care about pre-war military economics. Authoritarians don’t always do that.

so they also don’t care about cost increase afterwards

just following your metapher, someone trying to break in is already ww3

And hoping that it doesn’t happen just because you have some more tanks is just an unproven naive hope.

“Conventional” weapons make a defensive war less deadly to civilians

How?

and more expensive for the other side.

If this counts then there must be a diplomatic solution mustn’t it? because a war is always more expensive.

I don’t have a solution, but unlike the militarist I don’t pretend to have one.

but telling the Ukraine defense that “The only way to win is not to play” is insulting and privileged.

now you are derailing the argument

btt

The equilibrium of MAD (as in “The only way to win is not to play”) might be relevant for countries with nuclear weapons (i.e. Russia, USA, China),

But all i hear is we need more conventional weapons to defend against russia?

Still wanna know how that increases the peace?

so you say there is no way to prevent ww3?

Europe doesn’t exist anymore after WW3.

So your solution is just to lay down and die (pobably litteraly)?

Yes a state judical system, but not you holding your neightbor at gunpoint, but that is basically what militarism is advocationg for on an international level.

If you will you contradicted your 2nd part of your post with the first one.

You are just naive in thinking that weapons can prevent a war.

Frances Wehrhafte Demokratie (Defensive democracy)

Germans: Can we have Wehrhafte Demokratie at home?

CDU: We have Wehrhafte Demokratie at home.

Wehrhafte Demokratie at home: “Entzauberung im Amt” (Demystifcation in Office) Spoiler: It doesn’t work

How does a strong military prevent a war? It didn’t work WW1 or 2.

Thing is: Militarism is also no solution to avoid WW3, however people wanting more troops and weapons are hardly question if that is really an effective solution.

2020s repeat the 1920s bingo: The red scare is back

there are also multiple smaller ones (i know at least of one very nice one), and i bet black mirror did also an episode about thet (don’t know for sure didn’t see the whole series)
