But you used that as a basis to criticize getting vaccinated
because it's giving into fear. The analogy isn't even an analogy.
It's just a complaint about fear you saw in Afghan soldiers.
It's irrelevant to vaccination.

You've already admitted you got vaccinated for yourself. The ship of "I did it for fellow mankind" has sailed.

I did say I got it for myself...and for the other people I meet.
You left off that last part.
I see why....your ad hominem argument falls apart if you
actually quoted me. So we have an invented inference.

When I was deployed, I didn't kill people to save that country. I did it to save my and my team members lives.
Why does that matter regarding the issues in this thread?
BTW, that doesn't strike me as a good reason to go there.

Hmm. I'm in the military. It's my job. I'm told to deploy. I go because its my job.
I believe that one would benefit from more thought than that.
Again....

I would guess because our conversations have lead to here. What do you think?
Some opinions I keep to myself.
(They'd lead to excessive unproductivity.)
You'd do well to try such restraint.

And you would do well by keeping your "I think" in your own head and stop insinuating somethings someone didn't say.
I read your posts carefully.
I've re-read your posts carefully.
I've inferred your intent as accurately as I can.
I stand by my view that your posts wrongfully
portray war & pestilence as an economic boon.
Furthermore, they've dissed people who get
vaccinated against Covid.
Such advocacy is dangerous. Yet it's been
supported with no analysis, but plenty of ad
hominem.

Lets see if you can hold to your word.
Show me a post where I dissed people for getting vaccinated. Saying they did it because of fear(which some do) isn't dissing them(that came from your mind).
Show me a post where I said war is an economic boon. Saying war creates jobs(which it does) isn't saying its an economic boon(that came from your mind).

That works both ways, bub.
Excerpted from your post #76.....
"In my opinion most people didn't get vaccinated to save humanity,
they got vaccinated our of fear to save their own arse, you included."
Generally, when someone is out only to "save their own arse"
out of "fear", both claims are inferred to mean disrespect.
You never used the exact phrase, "economic boon".
I never said that you did use it.
But you did claim that war creates jobs, & increased stock
market value over the course the the last dozen or so posts.
Do you really deny this?
If so, then, I will go back & enumerate & quote each one.
But dang, man, it's 1:24 am. I'd rather not rub your nose in it.
This inference is based upon that claim & the others
mentioned above. Pushing a positive economic aspect
(wrong though it be) of war repeatedly with no recognition
of any downside to war is effectively to advocate for war
by claiming economic boon without using that exact phrase.

Your post simply supported mine.
You've already admitted you took the vaccine for you but yet criticize others that don't take it as being selfish.
You've already admitted you don't read links presented to you but you continue to argue agaist the links.
How can anyone even take you at your word or seriously?
You cannot produce a quote where I said that without leaving off the rest of the sentence.
When you provide links irrelevant to your claim,
I don't waste my time. Of course I admit that.
Duh!
By examining the conversation, evaluating the cromulence
of claims made.
I've no worries about how others perceive me. Some here
are fans...others are foes. The chips will fall where they will.
I don't follow orders blindly, or crave approval.
So...as an example...do you actually think they had 350k armed fighters?

I think that number is a little high but yet they should have lasted more than two weeks.
Its just sad the way things turned out but it would have happened if we pulled out 10 years ago or 10 later(2031)
