Ask us anything. But don't troll. And BDAD.
The most bizarre and surreal event in the last decade of US politics - and it's obviously a hefty competition -- is watching US liberals who see NAZIS and HITLER under every MAGA hat finally encounter real-deal Nazis in Ukraine, and they are eager to arm, fund and revere them.

Even if it were true (which it isn't), I think the US would indeed fund the literal Nazi's to get rid of Russians for a low price, because it's an easy geopolitical move. Regardless of whether the Ukrainians are literal angels, it's beneficial to interfere for many reasons.
If Putin wants to potentially change the equation, he has to launch nukes, but that's still assuming any of them will hit their targets. Who can know for sure that a space laser isn't already in place to eliminate such threats? The world's super power only had 90 years to prepare for global thermonuclear war. Do you really want to gamble nobody figured out a way to neutralize nukes?

Do you?
It only takes a few, a few capitol cities to be annihilated, and world society would collapse.
Nuclear winter would collapse crops, food riots would happen everywhere.
Fucking "lasers"? Think tank morons have no business being near power, that the human race has allowed these idiots to be in charge perhaps mean we're not even meant to survive as a species.

I don't know. Either I am the smartest man on the planet, because I did figure out how to beat nukes or the US already figured out the same 50 years ago. Do you think I am the smartest man on the planet? I don't think you do.
Fucking "lasers"?
I am not saying there are lasers, but there could be all kinds of mechanisms. Again, they had 90 years to figure out a solution to what is literally the most valuable problem worth solving. Do you really think nobody ever gave the order to figure out a solution? If so, it would be the most irresponsible policy ever and frankly, if the world is that stupid, perhaps extinction wouldn't be such a bad idea.

Your problem is that just because you have an idea, that idea can somehow be made manifest.
Well I have bad news for you. Great idea but there's one problem: our society doesn't force kids to do enough math to produce the engineers necessary to produce this tech. They are learning about all the genders tho.
We also don't have the manufacturing base for it.
Our elites are retards.
And even if it we did somehow have this technology, pretty much everyone that can launch rockets into space have an ASAT capability.

The West can produce everything they want, but it's entirely possible they don't know they want it.
This is paradoxal. I suppose by "elites" you mean the people that would have been considered the elites a few hundred years ago like heads of state, etc. The elites we have today are indeed idiots. The new elites are the ones you never hear about walking around on some Big Tech campus. They might not have the most money, but one can wonder who actually has "power" in this world, if not for those in the semi-conductor industry.
Elites in ancient times were well educated. These days they are inches away from showing up in a track suit. The amount of respect for authorities is dwindling in every country, because if all you are is a leader by force and not because you have something to offer, you soon won't be a leader anymore.
Technology companies will become the new master, if they aren't already.

As you can see, the brain rot hasn't just affected our elites
