You do realize there’s like 80,000 troops already there in europe? We have bases around the world. I’m not sure how these 3,000 national guard make a difference in your mind, but okay.
To me, the issue is that it increased. Whether by a small amount or not is rather meaningless if your complaint is that troops are being committed at all. It could have increased by 30 troops and (although it wouldn’t have made news) it would bother me.
lemmy.ml is federated with lemmygrad.ml, and both are old instances (also run by the same people but that’s less relevant here). Point being is that all the people on tankie central are subscribed to [email protected] for their worldnews community and thus you get a certain voting pattern you don’t see in other worldnews communities even if you don’t see any lemmygrad.ml users commenting.
For values of “public info” that involve running an instance and inspecting the database. Also lemmy.ml itself has quite a high proportion of tankies as it’s the instance that tankies tend to use to interact with instances defederating lemmygrad.ml.
I’m guessing you are in voluntary reserves then, right? Because to advocate for sending others to die in a needless war, when you yourself aren’t volunteering to do exactly that, is hypocritical and frankly ghoulish.
I’m overjoyed then.
Hope you’re ready to die in a foreign war then

Okay I just realized what instance I’m on. Time to unsubscribe.
LMFAO Like this is a valid excuse. Only 2 people in this comments section is from Lemmy.ml. Everyone else is commenting here from different servers.
What a truly stupid take.

Maybe take some time to inspect the votes? They’re not coming from lemmygrad. It’s all public info
