@beardalaxy @anemone i remember being particularly livid back in Bush Jr days because they were sending people out in iraq underprotected. so commanders started welding jank armor on to the humvees, since congress refused to pay for body armor and the like. then command got butt hurt and was like "no no don't armor your vehicles that's not authorized." like the industry WANTED everyone to go out and get killed, since high command and congress fought every attempt to protect the soldiers.

then they had the stones to ban stem cell research, which i probably would have had them summarily executed for depending on which quinn was there on the day :blobcatgoogly:

like we're going to lie that you are serving your country, but really you're just helping Mattis fuck around and find out (it turns out he was deliberately doing this just to fuck around with new battle strategies), and the House of Saud maintain its power structure, nothing about that was remotely in the interest of the hegemon's citizens, and we're going to shut down any attempts to fix you after we use up your body :blobcatgooglybadumtss:

:blobcatpensive: my disappointment is, sadly, eternal.
