Unfortunately, for most people it is. It is so disturbing and frustrating to see allegedly intelligent people all around me joyfully embracing their chains of slavery, and considering me an oddball for avoiding them.
What you've described here sounds a lot like raising the flag in the morning and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, just like I did in grade school here in the US. It's a far cry from belly-crawling through mud pits with a rifle.
You do realize, do you not, that this video is complete horse manure propaganda?!? I cannot say that there are not military training camps for children, there probably are, but they would be specifically for children whose parents hope to get them into good military academies. Nothing like this is either mandatory nor ubiquitous.
Hello, @Jeffrey Ade ! I've got one of Mr. Skousen's books and I have respect for him, but I don't subscribe, or specifically seek out his public statements. This echoing post of yours casts Putin in a warmongering light. I'm not discounting the probable truth of The Perestroika Deception (which I have not read but have only read of), but isn't it true that it was Zelensky (at the behest of BoJo) who pulled out of the original Istanbul agreement, and wasn't it Trump (God help us) who failed to deliver on the Anchorage agreement? Don't both of these, Istanbul and Anchorage, cast the bitter light of the pursuit of war away from Putin, each of which wherein Putin was ready to stop only to find that his counter-parties reneged? Any comments from either the esteemed Mr. Ade or Mr. Skousen on this point?
@Carol H Mrs. Clancy did not cut herself, or bruise one of her children by over-zealous discipline, or even shake a baby to death in a fit of rage. She MURDERED THREE OF HER OWN CHILDREN (as well as the only three children of an innocent man, thereby voiding and ruining his life and negating his reproductive rights). The lone, hold-out juror is worthy of acclaim because he understands that NO degree of depression, exhaustion, medication, imbalance, or anything else could EVER exonerate ANYONE from such a heinous, premeditated series of acts that is so over-abundantly in contradiction to natural law. In no sense is the series of acts anything other than criminal, regardless of the state of the perpetrator, and this man was the only one of them who stood steadfastly for this truth.
Isn't there a bit of an issue in inviting a Hindu to attend the holy and august sacrifice of the Mass? Really, legitimately, this is a genuine and not rhetorical question.
@Jeffrey Ade 2025 was a very good year: "In 2025, U.S. refineries produced about 1.76 billion barrels (73.80 billion gallons) of ULSD. Total ULSD consumption in the United States for all uses was about 1.42 billion barrels (59.56 billion gallons)." Where our diesel comes from - U.S. Energy … You might want to check the calendar.
UK’s 26th royal army regiment marching is hilarious.
