If the US had true gumption, they would be testing their hypersonic missiles via launches out of Ukraine aimed at high value russian military targets, with a pretend excuse that it was actually Ukraine launching the missile.
I can guarantee you most of Ukraine would support this (I live in Ukraine) and the “red line” bla bla is just westerners falling prey to russian foreign propaganda initiatives.
You’re right, but the orange baby wouldn’t want to upset daddy Poo-tin
Shitler’s reeal partial to that chode of a binky Putin’s packin’. 🤷🏼♂️
Imagine believing that empire actually gives a shit about Ukraine.
This is a pretty simplistic, almost child-like take.
You can recognize the self-interested nature of the US, while also pointing out how they are not being efficient for their own goals (that also benefit us).
$41M per missile? And 300 of them?
Sheeet. That’s over ten billion dollars?
Am I mathing right? That’s a lotta dough.
That’s not out of this world for the type of tech that is being discussed, especially considering costs in the US are very high.
It’s like half of NASA’s entire budget.
From a risk mitigation perspective, this is a case of fighting the last war. We know the war that is coming: it’s climate collapse. We don’t need faster rockets, we need high speed rail.
That’s not out of this world for
the type of techgenocidal empire
The US is behind in this tech because we didn’t think we needed it. I wonder what changed the Pentagon’s mind? Perhaps they’ve been impressed by what Russia has done in Ukraine.
Capitalists “need” billion dollar bombs to violently enforce their gross privilege.
Workers just need clean air, clean water, food, shelter, healthcare, etc.
It’s no surprise who gets their needs met.
