    You know what a thermobaric weapon is? You ever think about one landing on loved ones you live with; or living across the street from its target?

    I don’t doubt there’s people who will fight back, I just know it isn’t you or many if any of the people on this site. The demos skew older, middle-class, STEM employed white cishet men, and the diversity ranges typically still include privileged classes. No Canadian settler alive has experienced war at the end of an imperial weapon like the US military; or any military. So, no, I don’t think the people on here who gleefully roleplay as guerilla freedom fighters from their desks really understand what they’re talking about.

        I love that you literally couldn’t read this as anything other than the larp the rest of you engage in.

        “Real life isn’t Call of Duty,” indicated to you that I want to seem knowledgeable about the military, because you couldn’t imagine a different perspective; just about sums up the Canadian community on here.
