minus-squareViking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up13·2 months agoThat’s more of a geopolitical paradox being played out for profit than an ACTUAL war, though…
minus-squarebumblefumble@mander.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 months agoI mean, how is the war in Afghanistan not a war?
minus-squareViking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 months agoThat WAS a war. An ill-advised (to say the very least) invasion using the “war” on terror as a pretext.
minus-squareooterness@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoIt says “war” right there in the title.
minus-squareCileTheSane@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up7·2 months agoAnd “AI” has ‘intelligence’ right in the title. What’s your point?
minus-squareMidnight Wolf@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoI mean, technically, the shorthand “AI” doesn’t have “intelligence” in it, as it only has the “A” which can be discarded for the purpose of this statement, and the “I” which is missing several necessary characters. I’m a blast at parties.
minus-squareMiddleAgesModem@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 months agoHis point is that the war on terror is an actual war and Canadian exceptionalism doesn’t change that.
minus-squareCileTheSane@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months agoOkay, who is the leader of “Terror”? Did Terror surrender? Was any sort of peace treaty signed? Or is the war on going?
minus-squareViking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·edit-22 months agoNah, it’s the truth. The “war on terror” isn’t any more of an actual war than the “war on drugs”, and it’s every bit as demagogic and counterproductive.
minus-squareMiddleAgesModem@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 months agoYeah except the war on terror involved the military - soldiers fighting. Not law enforcement and drugs. Funny how you get to defend your stupid point by just redefining what war is.

Cop out of an answer.
