Live footage of a bob-quarters near you..

I'm assuming based on you're comment you have at least a slight peak behind the curtain. Do the bobs there have the intestinal fortitude to admit amongst themselves that quality is rapidly dropping, or are they so delusional they actual believe what they're briefing to ops units?

He makes a lot of good points. Who knows, maybe the bobs are using an expected air war of attrition as the reason for mass producing subpar pilots. Or maybe those pilots will be so far from harms way that there's no need for them to be proficient at what we see as core capabilities, hence our tactical bias. Idk if these poignant quotes from a hundred years ago regarding culture make me feel better about whats going on in America or not. “the nation that has trained itself to a career of unwarlike and isolated ease is bound, in the end, to go down before other nations which have not lost the manly and adventurous qualities.” - Teddy Roosevelt "blamed education and upbringing for turning Frenchmen into “timid and poltroons,” - French General Oscar de Négrier “described the British nation as being in a ‘wild debauch of so-called freedom’” in need of “a new discipline.” - some British Captain

Seeing staunch liberals lament doxing by conservatives on social media is truly ironic. Whether I agree with doxing or not it's hilarious to see a group of people that collectively champion cancel culture getting canceled themselves. Fortunately, those currently on the receiving end of the movement they created will no doubt see the error in their ways and we can all move away from this retardation /s.

Copy, ridicule of cuck-sauruses in the public commons of social media was your intent. No problem with that. Viper I'd say the assassin took the nuclear option here because conservatives have been making progress against liberals the last few years, but I get your point.

I asked what the difference was, specifically. @Lord Ratner somewhat answered, though I disagree that providing information such as someone's home address will lead to a change in public discourse. It will more than likely lead to violence. If you're goal is to reduce ppl freely spouting hate on social media and risk it becoming publicly acceptable speech, maybe the companies allowing this stuff on their platform should be held accountable. @brabus If nK launches chem/bio weapons at Kunsan/Osan I don't expect us to lose our morals and respond in kind. If someone is stupid enough to post some disgusting shit with their real name attached, fine, fwd it to their boss. Posting their address, the name of their kids, and where they go to school is not going to shift a window developed by a policy analyst. If someone shows up to your kids school to harass them for being pro-life are you really going to change your views on pro-life? I'd argue most ppl are going to double down on their rhetoric, they're just going to be more discreet about it.

How is DOXING ppl for their beliefs/comments, regardless of how reprehensible they are, any different than what the left does? That's their MO, ruin the lives of ppl they disagree with.

I'm pro rule of law as well, and opposed to it taking years to convict a murderer. However, the answer to defending Americans' right to voice their opinions free from the risk of death is not to become China or nK in our execution of justice (i.e. a one day trial). Televising the execution might help. Especially if they request a firing squad.

Here's hoping he can have the same effect on the morale of the violently liberal professors at A&M that he had on AD when he was CSAF!

I'll bite. I get it, another renaming of a department so someone can put their name on something and say "hey, I did that!" I don't disagree this is exhausting in and of itself. However, I think a change of mentality is needed. Everyone is telling us to prepare for war, and they're even throwing out dates. Yet, at all echelons no one seems to be acting accordingly. If that's really what we're collectively supposed to be focused on then we need to get in the right mental state. Is a name change going to do that, no. If the name change is backed by actual action, forcing people to make decisions at all levels w.r.t that end goal, then I agree. We need to get on the same page as a military.

The bobs dont have the balls to publicly acknowledge they can't produce their own requirement of 1500 pilots/year with our current resources and lack of retention. Instead of standing up and telling the giga-bobs this fact, they're massively cutting the training you received to produce more, drastically less experienced, pilots to keep the slides green. For old bastard reference: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=giga

Do you work at Textron/own a bunch of stock there? Just curious because you make it a point to recommend the USAF buy their aircraft a lot.

Well if you've ever briefed/executed/debriefed with Italians you know exactly how it's gonna go.

What in the actual fuck...

A lot of anthem singers that didn't stick to their timing have caused many a "shitty flyover"

This is why I don't think it's more nuanced. Has he broken the law in relation to women in the military, no? Does he hold an opinion contrary to common Western values, yes. Your Mormon example is apples to oranges. I'm talking about a leader that holds beliefs contrary to common western values. In your example an individual wouldn't do the job, easy kill. I'm talking about a commander with a specific set of values that doesn't align with common Western beliefs.

What about allowing devout Muslims or Mormons in command positions? Both of those religions view women (and non-whites for Mormons) in a way that is contrary to modern western thinking. I don't think the DoD is barring followers of those faiths from leadership positions.

During a fam ride in the C model it's set to NORM the entire time.

Egress training is required and so is a pilot brief prior to step. This is a prime example why the seat sequencer is set the way that it is for fam flyers. Hopefully she didn't hurt anything more than her pride...
