I am wondering if you’re an alt or a random newcomer who had the fortunate timing to enter the cookie thread at a timing like this
She was naked around children

like that technology is just going to be used for that fucking war
your actions have lead to a 0.01% increase in the efficiency in the murder of yemeni civilians and you should feel like scum for that
orange literally said they were contracted for ukraine what
“wow we used the woodchipper to develop a predictive model for which specific parts of the woodchipper are being activated when we press the button that chips wood, something which we previously did not know (the woodchipper analogy kind of breaks down here). this is really really hard because our woodchipper is made of billions of parts, which is why we can’t just have a human look at the circuitry. despite this, we were still able to develop a predictive model for which parts of the woodchipper are activated when we press the chip wood button, and compare the predictions to which parts of the woodchipper actually end up being used (something which we otherwise would not be able to predict).”

And so I feel no guilt towards contributing to the defense of those people even at the potential expense of others, should those with the power to dictate weapon usage end up abusing it. I’d really rather that doesn’t happen, and frankly I think modern America is generally pretty damn reasonable with our use of power, but even if and when it does this is a trade off I would still make.
On the whole I believe America to be an often-wrong but fundamentally trying-for-the-best place and arguments that helping to provide for it in an imperfect world where having no military at all would invite those who are far worse to make wide-reaching grabs for power automatically make one a “bad person” are not going to carry any weight with me ever
