The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Spread all the seditious nonsense in the service of foreign powers all you want.

The only sedition in this story is Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump treating 5000 sailors as if they were expendable meat.... Which is exactly what led to the trouble aboard the Lincoln.

This so reminds me of how Putin treats the soldiers in his armed forces.

The horror stories that emerge about the mistreatment of Russian soldiers by their superiors in Ukraine and other places bear a strong stench of the same infection that afflicted the Lincoln.

Regardless, such callousness can only degrade our military readiness.

And the world (including Russia, Iran and China) already know it.
