Just ask Ukraine. They’re a very peaceful people, very into disbanding the military, defunding the military industrial complex, even getting rid of fighter jets and their nuclear weapons.
Ah yes because the US is going to be invaded by… Canada? Mexico? Uzbekistan? Seriously what the hell are you talking about? If you actually think that upholding the American empire has benefitted Americans then you’re just a liberal.
The US isn’t about to be invaded by anyone. We have a very powerful military. So there is no threat in the world we live in, aside from the threat from internal extremists and asymmetrical warfare (ie terrorism). If the world were quite different, and we had no military power, we’d be at risk from a number of adversaries. Possibility the greatest threat would be foreign-backed “separatism” as occurred in Ukraine in 2014 (which is simply a covert invasion that is disguised as a civil war).
There’s literally nothing wrong with being a liberal. It’s really quite preferable to a number of the alternatives. It must kill you that the majority of people don’t remotely support your political views.
Ah yes, if you’re the biggest and most violent bully in the school yard, you don’t have to worry about being beat up. Just say “they hate us for our freedom” in the mirror 3 times while ignoring any sort of actions we do as a country that might make other people or countries want to attack us. I swear, your exact message could’ve been said by the average republican in 2008.
Liberalism in a nutshell:
When the new gay CEO unfairly fires 2000 workers, gay and straight alike 🤑👌
IDK, I’d rather the people making the weapons be on our side.
As a Queer person what the hell do you mean? The gears of the military industrial complex are lubricated with the blood of the innocent.
Do you believe that if the US didn’t make weapons, then everyone else would also just stop making weapons?
It’s not like they’re arming queer people.
… this may come as a shock, but the US and its allies are the primary countries upholding LGBT rights in their own nations at this point in time.
Just watch this
Even back in 2009 Pacifists understand what endless conflict would lead to, exactly what we’re seeing today.
You know what disarming leads to?
Invasion by a hostile force.

At which point in history should we have gotten rid of all of our boom?
The point where America stopped defending itself and started becoming a global empire (roughly after WWII).
I’m sure the Soviet Union would have disarmed in response, as seen by their holsum reactions to democracy in what-would-become-the-Warsaw-Pact
You do realize that the Warsaw Pact was created in direct response to NATO?
