Now you're applying real laws of physics to a movie which clearly breaks the laws of physics many times throughout the movie, by that logic none of their spaceships would function at all realistically. Just make believe whatever you want at that point, it's all fiction anyway, I was trying to go off of the fandom lore, now I don't care.

That said, Buenos Aires was definitely a false flag/accident in the movie.

Not true.

With what technology?

Not replying after this as to not waste my time.

As per the lore of Starship Troopers, yes I'm sure. There is no evidence even slightly that it was done by humans in that universe. On the other hand, in Helldivers 2 the intro video is clearly staged and prerecorded produced by the "Ministry of Truth" with the statement "scenes like these are happening all over the galaxy" making it clear that it was a staged video.

The bugs in Starship Troopers even tried to send another one which was stopped:

"Later, at a certain point, the Arachnids launched a second meteor towards Earth. Fortunately for the Federation, it was destroyed by a Missile defence turret on Luna Base. The meteor would have slammed into southern Africa, possibly at Cape Town. "

The satirical nature of Helldivers 2 is obvious, but in Starship Troopers the bugs flung a meteor at Earth which destroyed a major city and killed millions. I would argue that Starship Troopers has a bit more of a serious vibe with subtle satire, aside from some of the commercials like the one of soldiers giving kids guns. In Helldivers 2 the intro video shows that bugs are killing civilians, which could be true or could be purely propaganda. But yea, anyone who doesn't understand that Helldivers 2 is satirical is a fucking idiot. It all makes fun of militaristic imperialism, you can literally name your ship "King of Democracy".

It got this way because younger people are willing to go into debt to get an education, and schools take advantage of that expected level of debt. I highly recommend looking up certificates that are available. One of the best ways to change this is for people to switch to alternatives.

I still see miles per hour when driving. I still see ounces at the grocery store. Good to hear that your child is learning the metric system.

This is unpopular opinion, not entertaining opinion.

...Americans deserve Trump because he actually represents them.

The only way Trump actually wins is without the popular vote. I also believe the US deserves Trump, but for different reasons. Mainly because I think the system is completely fucked knowing that a past president who was impeached twice can win again with out the popular vote.

Voting day being a holiday would be mostly symbolic. It also helps to ensure that there is no discrimination around the UBI bonus for voting. If an employer forced an employee to work on voting day then it would be grounds for a lawsuit because it's a holiday. And yes, there would be weeks to vote by mail and vote early in person ahead of the actual voting day.

No, this is unpopular opinion, not debate opinion.

Nazi Germany did this during WW2. Russia is a fascist dictatorship.

We are in the wake of one of the largest wealth transfers... robberies in history. The middle class has been drained, the poor have been robbed. There's nothing they can do to take back all the money they gave to the wealthiest in the country. It's going to take some serious reforms, none of which Biden is capable of. I'll fucking list the solutions if you want, as if that'd do anything. The bottom is going to fall out soon enough, we'll see change.

Judicial system is weak against the rich, by design of course.

If Biden loses to Trump, this will probably be one of the reasons why. Then, after Trump wins without the popular vote, he'll just continue doing the same shit Biden did in this regard. Great system.

Steal from the poor to give to the rich. They're focusing on it again because they're being told the money isn't going to the correct people.
