Ukraine is a sovereign nation and is supported by its allies. allies have not declared war against Russia – not a war
Israel is a sovereign nation and is taking action against a perceived threat against its government (false IMO but 🤷) – not a war
the rest aren’t wars, they are political movements sold to the American public under the guise of better protection but in reality is the establishment of a police state nation.
war is war. none of what you said is a war. words are important. don’t perpetuate the invalidation of the word “war” by continuing the misuse of the word they have instigated.
Are you saying that Ukraine’s allies, specifically the USA are not financially supporting the Ukraine war? Remember we are talking about how the cost of war effects the economy.
it sounds like you’re dismissing the war in Gaza because of how you are deciding to define the word war. Do you really think that daily airstrikes, ground invasion,a siege, and an officially recognized genocide doesn’t qualify as a war simply because it hasn’t been declared?
I couldn’t disagree more on the rest of your points. You seem so focused on semantics that you can’t see the obvious. Also, if we are going to base everything on semantics, if the commander in chief declares something a war, then it is one.
US tax dollars are being used for these activities, no matter if you support them or not. And in some cases (more specifically the domestic ones) they are a net negative on GDP.
They are right about semantics. Although, you have a decent point about overuse/misuse of the word war.
Technically the US hasn’t been at war since WWII. As you say he stretches the meaning of the word war to the breaking point, not calling the Vietnam Conflict a war also seems equally ridiculous.
Also what about the Cold War? If everyone agrees the War on Drugs is a war and considering it has cost us millions of lives now why can’t it be a war.

I can’t discuss this with you because you’re clearly not understanding what a war is.
that’s fine though, you be ignorant and make a fool out of yourself. no skin off my back.
