Maybe it's just my feed, but I haven't seen this type of dogpiling on Bluesky.

There are so many things wrong with your post that either you're trolling or so wildly misinformed that it amounts to the same thing.

The US doesn't have ground troops fighting in Iran or Houthi territories (perhaps some SpecOps, but nothing public.)

The Osprey is not limited as you describe, and the US is purchasing follow on tilt-rotor aircraft.

What do the LCS have to do with anything about CASEVAC?

The Russians still have quite a lot of armor. They're reserving it from combat in Ukraine. The US has even more armor.

What goes up...

I had an implant done recently. I was amazed at how quickly the oral surgeon numbed me. Literally just a few minutes after a novocaine injection and I was ready to go. After the procedure, I asked him why that my past experiences with numbing performed by my dentists all took a long time and multiple, repeated shots to numb my mouth. He paused and said there's a huge difference in skills between a dentist and a doctor...

It's common in journalism to call to use lead.

NASA isn't keeping 25 MIG-21 flying, Draken is, as a contractor providing dissimilar aircraft training to the US military (and other nations).

I use a Thermopen almost daily to check fry temperatures. I don't go above 400º F however.

Your comparison to Germany with "30x" the risk is pointless when less than two are murdered per year. Measure that against police misconduct that results in bodily harm/death per year.

Those responsible are mostly dead...

That is a non-sequitur. Many societies and governments (the leadership you're referring to) are not "doing something right blah blah blah." They're using "tradition", "culture" "respect for the past" as a means of controlling their populace and hanging on to power. You're conflating society with government.

That purpose is to further entrench and protect the power of those in power.

"coming out of early development" that has been going on for almost a decade...

Considering he wanted to rescue those poor kids trapped in an underwater cave by building a submarine, the parallels are closer than you'd think...

LVM for a *nix sysadmin is cheat mode for managing storage.
