This is how all military branches have always pressured Congress for more budget.
That's fairly accurate, but that is the military's job.
However, the CCP military rapidly upgrading their orbital and suborbital capabilities should give pause to those who want free and open democratic societies and republics.
Military jingoism and scaremongering can and do exist simultaneously. It's our job to elect people who can responsibly address both hyperbolic alarmism and real threats from aggressive and encroaching adversaries.
Basically: give them some money, but not all of it.
Again, with sincerity: did the woman who perpetrated the assault or her attorney give any public statement re: her motive? I saw in the video linked to the article said that the attorney, when asked by this reporter, had no comment. Was there anything ever released or documented about why she snapped?
What I'm getting at is did she attack him for being a man, a muslim, or a muslim and a man?
Furthermore, it's not clear to me if she's being charged with "vanilla" assault and battery or if there's a hate crime charge on top of it. This may be my own fault for reading too quickly.
Nevermind that. I re-read the aricle.
Guilbeault was officially charged in a state supreme court indictment “with one count each of Assault in the Second Degree as a Hate Crime, Assault in the Third Degree as a Hate Crime and Aggravated Harassment in the Second Degree”.
Honest question: what is up for debate regarding the case? I think all the facts are clear, no?
What's your geopolitical cure for this? What foreign/military policy change from the U.S. government would sit well with you regarding this issue? I'm interested to hear it.
Should the US invade Afghanistan again?
Because as an American, I care very much, but I'm reluctant to go over to Afghanistan and fight an armed insurgency against the Taliban without an imminent NATO re-invasion planned after what will likely have to be months of guerrilla warfare to free the women of Afghanistan.
Oh wait, I remember now, "Americans dumb, ha ha."
The belief that militant religious conservatism will guarantee power over others.
Is there any public record of anyone actually buying that tripe?
I make DNNs (deep neural networks), the current trend in artificial intelligence modeling, for a living.
Much of my ancillary work consists of deflating/tempering the C-suite's hype and expectations of what "AI" solutions can solve or completely automate.
DNN algorithms can be powerful tools and muses in scientific endeavors, engineering, creativity and innovation. They aren't full replacements for the power of the human mind.
I can safely say that many, if not most, of my peers in DNN programming and data science are humble in our approach to developing these systems for deployment.
If anything, studying this field has given me an even more profound respect for the billions of years of evolution required to display the power and subtleties of intelligence as we narrowly understand it in an anthropological, neuro-scientific, and/or historical framework(s).
Thanks for your insight. Now give me the recipe for a delicious borscht.

Sorry, replied to wrong user.

Blanket insults to Russians would be bigotry, as "Russian" is a nationality comprised of many ethnicities, not a "race". Words have meanings.
So, yes, let's not ostracize Russians carte blanche. Rather, let's do that to those who support Putin and his wars of aggression and genocide of Ukrainians.
Simply put, "Fuck Russianz."
Really insightful, thank you. Please give me a recipe for a cheese sandwich.
That's not how words work. Ordinary Russians don't deserve blanket animosity or praise, yes. However, one can claim disliking Russians wholesale is bigotry, not racism. Words have definitions even if you pretend they don't so you can virtue signal on the internet.
