> Boeing sucks as it's primary business is now hyper focused for defense purposes This is a childish 2000s take. The world is rougher, Pax Americana is over, we need effective defense contractors because the world is full of assholes. Grow up.

its rougher because of america, not in spite of it. its a self-reinforcing feedback loop. implying you are the grown up in the room because you are 'realist' about this or whatever is a classic dimwit take.

  Yep, so true. Before 1776 there were no wars and the world was deaf due to sound overload from globally synchronized Khumbaya singing.

    Oh yes, the "all or nothing" fallacy. Let's ignore nuance in an effort to win internet points. I know you're better than that.

      Did you read the comment I replied to? Come on, I know you can read that and are capable of simple comprehension. Pray tell how do you counter an all or nothing assertion? Such idiotic comments don't deserve nuance. Also, pro-tip: Just shouting "fallacy", doesn't mean it is.

        >Pray tell how do you counter an all or nothing assertion Simple, you don't engage in it, because you're able to recognize the fallacy. Not every conversation needs to dissolve into a debate-fest.

No this is a very 2023 take, everything has to be looked at from the lens of the Oppressor vs oppressed narrative, and since America, the great satan, is always the "oppressor", America is always bad and must be opposed Any company that helps support America is also bad and most be opposed Any person that that does not view America as bad is a bigot alt-right extremist and must be opposed That is the state of politics for 2023, and anyone born after the year 1990 or so

>The world is rougher On the contrary, it's less violent than previous decades. The difference is you get to hear about EVERYTHING due to nearly ever human on earth has a smart phone and access to the web. This is a blessing and a curse. Given your handle, I'm surprised you haven't figured that out.
