(9,806 posts)I just said I wont steep to using their political tactics to do so as you called for. Big difference. War tactics are another thing entirely. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean they aren't meaner than you are and are not more educated than you on said tactics. Your political beliefs change that in no way no matter what form. Having a war front as the republicans have had for a while now for their politics has led them to thinking a win is a win when it is in reality a loss. Because they believe their own propaganda. Any political party that relies on lies, fear and the rest will succumb to those lies and fear. They will never be able to follow the actual reality of war. Their belief will overcome that reality and they will act on that fake reality instead of the rules of war and do stupid things because of course they cant lose. Their politics tell them so. Look at Russia and Ukraine. Russia believed they would win in 2-3 days. Because of politics. They thought that Ukraine would just fold. Politically. Militarily though, that was a different story. With extended lines with no logistical support russia just couldnt keep up the attack to a Ukraine that was resisting. They had tons of tanks and APC's but when they were backed up due to resistance they had no resupplies to keep the momentum. It was a masterclass in Ukraine putting up a fight and acting like a modern western military. Not a political class. Zelensky never had to change his politics to be like Putin. He stayed free, kept his country free. His military kicked ass. Ill end with this, you are essentially talking about our politics to bend to the military class. The use of deception, Lying, falsehood, things that even you admit our military uses. What country did that work out well with?
