You make the fatal flaw of thinking there's reasoning behind their beliefs. They make up reasons to justify their beliefs. These reasons are always narrow-in-scope and context-dependant, but are often presented as generalized statements. They will change their argument to suit their aims.
Hindu lore hosts many characters, but in actuality they believe in only one god, the godhead that you are i.e. the universe, man, life, existence is all one thing and you're it.
It's cope. It means nothing. Speculating on the effectiveness of warfighting technology before a peer engagement is just flag-waving. A stealthed craft deploying guided munitions at half a mile is a lot less likely to be countered when compared to a medium-range ballistic missile from 30mi out, for example, despite the risk of a manned craft behind enemy territory. On a cost analysis, we can't speculate on profitability until we know just how many of those munitions will be screened during an engagement. You fire 100 $5k rockets vs. 2 $250k cruise missile, the benefit only comes from the amount of bang that reaches the target.
I've been having a surge of anxiety and anger about this election. I really hope I can see things your way... Right now, it doesn't feel that peace is an option. It doesn't seem like we'll get the choice.
There also aren't a lot of totalitarian governments that cease their tyranny because the opposing populace hold peaceful protest. Eventually, prospects will become better only when the institution burns.
That said, I don't relish the thought of tearing down an institution that people rely on for personal stability and safety, but if the system's malicious actions outweigh the good that said system does passively, then the only option, the last option, is violence.
No, because some States have entrenched parties that wish to stay entenched. And since we're 50 countries in a trench coat, nothing will change about that soon unless you live there and enjoy making gasoline cocktails.
This, except that the foundations that lead to change are laid on election night. Yes the cement was mixed and the scaffolding raised, but today sets the tools we have to work with to enact that change for the next 4 (or rarely 2) years.
Oops! You missed the disclaimer: *of all participants polled, including only individuals who opted in to the poll, on this specific website or streetside polling campus, during these specific hours in the day.
Edit: Apologies if any of this was misleading. I only meant to point out that polls often have hidden implicit biases due to the nature of their process.
Well if that's the case, bring rifles. If it's going to be violent and they won't leave us a choice, go off.
