This will be long. My apologies

Since taking office in 2016, Donald Trump has frequently criticized NATO countries for what he sees as insufficient defense spending, arguing that the U.S. contributes a disproportionately high share of its GDP to military spending compared to other NATO nations. This has led him to consider withdrawing from NATO—a possibility he has hinted at pursuing if re-elected, which is my top concern should he return to office.

Trump appears to misinterpret the data. The U.S. is not specifically funding NATO at a higher rate than other countries; rather, it chooses to allocate a larger portion of its GDP to overall military spending, in part because the American military is significantly larger. While it is true that the U.S. has historically deployed more military funding and troops in Europe than European countries themselves, the numbers have steadily declined since the end of the Cold War—alongside British deployments—reflecting a reduction in the perceived immediate threat level.

Still, I support a stronger British military with increased defense spending, as this would bolster the collective security of Europe. My concern is that Trump’s potential return to power could threaten NATO’s stability, as he has expressed interest in policies that contradict NATO’s founding principles. The NATO alliance has always been rooted in mutual trust, with a commitment to collective defense: if any member nation is attacked, the others will come to its aid. Yet, Trump has suggested that countries spending less than 2% of their GDP on defense should receive less protection or that the U.S. should reduce its military presence in Eastern Europe—policies that would undermine the alliance’s core purpose.

Europe’s security could be at serious risk if the U.S. were to withdraw from NATO, as it is unclear whether European countries could independently counter a major threat like a Russian invasion.

Q4A: if you were struggling with infertility, but your partner was fertile, would you rather want to adopt a baby that is unrelated to both of you, or have a surrogate/sperm donor so that the baby is only genetically related to your partner?

I hate how longer hair is so fashionable for men now. I want to be one of these cool broccoli head slayers like all the other gym guys. I have to keep my hair pretty short for two reasons, both related to my mental "differences."

I hate hate the texture of hair against my skin. Drives me crazy.
I have a nervous tic where I will twirl my hair up in my fingers if it's long enough to do that.

When you talk shit about single moms, women often try to defend them. But they do it by deflecting to some example they have of a woman whose husband died or was abusive and she had no choice but to leave, so they are technically "single moms".

I think that's an admission that actual single mom behavior is indefensible. The typical single mom we are talking about is terrible. The ones you see all the time that are out without a father to their kid are up to no good.

whenever a 40 year old decides to have a hoe phase it's only a matter of time before they get herpes. the older people they are fucking have probably been having a decades long hoe career and there's a higher likelihood they'll get exposed to it

Kid shoots and kills both parents and 3 siblings, sets it up to make it seem like one of the dead siblings did it and committed suici*e, tried to kill another sibling but the 11 year old girl played dead then jumped out her window when he left the room. She goes to the neighbours house to call 911 minutes after he did

Men like women more than women like men on default even in relationships. You can downplay it by saying men lust for women more or are desperate for women more but still it seems true even after that Men like women much more . Agree or Disagree?

Women lie about being able to “read when their friend isn’t interested” I watched tonight as a woman pulled away 3-4 times cause her fat friends wanted to leave and she was talking to a bouncer. It really is just jealousy

At a Halloween party and there’s two women dressed as Barbie and neither one of them are having it.

Also someone wore the Palestinian flag like a dress and had a chain of small baby dolls attached to her leg and they were all bloody.

Thankfully she had other engagements she had to go to. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Made myself an expensive steak tonight after not having it for a while. Steak just doesn’t feel health. It’s very fatty and to make it taste half way decent, you have to baste it in butter plus you typically put oil in the pan, then you put a bunch of salt on it.

‘Telegony refers to the appearance of some characteristics of the female’s previously mated male in her subsequent offspring by another male’.

Jaded_Bad2224 · 2024-10-26T05:17:48+00:00

actually having game is rarer than being good looking. ive only met less than a handful of guys who actually had game. the standard guy, regardless of his looks, is socially competent enough but he's not going to be smooth and think on his feet fast enough to come up with the "right" things to say to make women more interested in him.

like in order to be charismatic, you have to be extremely socially aware, have good timing for your jokes, have them land 90% of the time, and beyond being funny you have to be smooth, know when you should test/push boundaries, be able to handle situations with grace and positivity even if they don't go your way, and it requires creativity and the ability to think on your feet. like it is incredibly uncommon to find guys who are like that.

just normal personality/decent enough guys, who are good looking, are significantly easier to find than guys who are actually charming, intriguing, and naturally great conversationalists.

Unironically the best way for Republicans to improve their appeal to female voters is to start running younger and more attractive guys as candidates. That's just how f*male brains work unfortunately. Donny is too old and fat and it's making the race tighter than it should be.

Jaded_Bad2224 · 2024-10-26T05:02:11+00:00

noticed in the raw data for the survey they didn't have the numbers for n-count. due to the medians being so much lower than the mean, i wanted to know how high the highest n count was and i would have made a bar chart showing how many users had 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or higher n-counts. and i would have made the charts look a lot more aesthetically pleasing too. looks like they just used default fonts and colors in google sheets

last year they gave all the raw data they collected.

Listened to part of the Joe Rogan Trump podcast while I was driving, it seems crazy Trump is a de facto religious figure for half the country.

He rambles, he oozes narcissism, he doesn't stay on topic at all, he doesn't seem particularly funny or charismatic, and he didn't let Joe get a word in. I mean I get it, he's the president candidate Joe is just the interviewer, but it did not resemble normal conversation at all. He also just has this really weird speaking style that isn't very clear, not what you would expect from an ivy league graduate.

Idk how this is THE man for so many people. But I still voted for Trump as punishment to women and society.

MysterySolverDog · 2024-10-26T04:20:43+00:00

I'll try to keep this short, I am extremely disappointed by the new proposed moderation changes. In particular:

complaining about a group's lack of prospects or difficulty e.g. male loneliness,

I'll be direct, if you're going to deny that the male loneliness epidemic exists, you're not red pill either. Red pill influencers are acutely aware that there are a sizeable number of lonely men struggling and market their content accordingly - overmoderation of this topic kills useful discussion on the dating issue. But what I'm guessing is going to happen is bloop posts that argue "The male loneliness epidemic is caused solely by a lack of social skills [no sources cited]" will remain up, while posts like "Here are specific groups of men that women have particular prejudices against dating [studies included]" will get deleted. This outcome is even worse.

This subreddit has basically been overrun by users strawmanning each other, because if mods aren't going to step in why would they engage in honest debate. I frequently watch one user carefully outline their position, only for another user to step in and deliberately misinterpret what they said and attack the strawman instead. If you're going to overmoderate, at least start punishing for the behaviour that actually makes interacting with this sub a shit experience, instead of using mod powers in a deliberately thought crushing manner.

Finished the Joe Rogan & Trump podcast. Definitely very interesting, Trump is sharp and has a handle of the facts. But somehow in those three hours they never got into the shit I wanted to hear.

“How you can serve your husband”

Girl, my husband and I do most of these things and we just don’t view them as “service”. It’s being a good partner, not necessarily a helpmeet.

relish5k · 2024-10-26T03:10:19+00:00

fuck fast fashion. look, i hate it when old people complain about how “waaah everything is so much worse now. back in the day it was all fala-dee-daa.” But as a late-mid-30s i can truly say that clothing quality has gone down hill. you used to be able to take good care of cheap clothes and they would still last a long time. now it seems like everything, regardless of price point, falls apart.

but props to The Gap which has actually maintained its level of middling quality at a low price point. even if it’s not all that trendy. appreciate you.

How mad would a woman be if she tittyfucked a guy & then he ghosted. It seems more intimate than even sex, because you get nothing in return for a tittyfuck

Jaded_Bad2224 · 2024-10-26T02:12:15+00:00

honestly i can't believe people think elliott smith killed himself. he had a screaming argument with his gf, she "went to take a shower" then comes out and he's already dead from multiple stab wounds in the chest and left a "suicide note" that sounded fishy as hell, and the forensic people could not determine the cause of death.

do you realize how difficult it is, even for suicidal people, to stab themselves through the sternum? our bodies and brains actually naturally resist doing that, similar to how you can't bite your own finger off even though your jaw is strong enough to break finger bones like a fucking carrot.

gloomett3 · 2024-10-26T02:05:55+00:00

Do I want a boyfriend or do I just like the idea of having a boyfriend? Do I just like the idea of being in a relationship with a fictional man that I’ve created in my head to be perfect? Or do I just desire to feel the pleasures of intimacy 🤔 I’m feeling confused today.

Something that irks me about my own sex? The virtue signalling. 🤔 When women here tell me to be nice, especially when I’m lashing out at the rude assholes here, it irritates a particular part of my soul. I actually DON’T want to take the moral high ground. I DON’T want to be the better person. The “turn the other cheek” shit that society forces down women’s throats is just exhausting.

I actually don’t consider myself a feminist and I just can’t be a feminist. I don’t hate/dislike feminism, but I don’t have the patience, empathy and restraint to ever do it. I like women better than men but there are also numerous demographics of women I dislike and probably wouldn’t hesitate to call nasty names if provoked. Is this perhaps internalized misogyny? Yeah, maybe. But it’s the truth. This is a bit of a nonsensical ramble but whatever.
