"Critical thought" on this board is immediately succumbing to the opinion of the kneejerk left and calling anyone who doesn't agree with it a right wing nutjob. Same as the old ZZL. Fortunately I have plenty of real life liberals to discuss things with who don't immediately react with "WTF" like Zoo did and proceed into some blatant overcompensating mancuntness.

Hundreds of posters on this board. I'm literally the first one outside of known MAGATs to post a different opinion on this subject. I guess everyone here except me is just perfect at "critical thought", even though it's all EXACTLY THE SAME.

I mean look, I agree with 90% of what is posted here. That's largely why I come here. And the boss is good with breaking news off X on important subjects. But this place isn't about "critical thought". It's a bunch of libs patting each other on the ass and validating each other.

Honestly, you're just doing way too much here in my opinion. No people welcome the destruction of their economy, their cities, and their daily existence by another country. What you have proposed and are advocating would create the fiercest enemy our country has ever known in the Iranian people overall. We may have already done that to some extent, but sending thousands of troops into Iran to overthrow the only governing entities in the country would cause instant chaos, death, and YEARS of civil war within the country. Whatever country that comes out of such a thing would be no ally to the United States.

But I think as long as we're balls deep in the hand anyway we shouldn't fold on the river without at least trying to facilitate a revolution, particularly given that we have made things even worse at this point.

So because we fucked it up horribly, we should go full steam ahead? Please Google 'sunk cost fallacy' or the term 'throwing good money after bad'.

If you don't think continuing on could be an even greater disaster, you lack imagination. I mean, it could work, so let's gamble the whole fucking world economy on it, right?
 
Those brothers in Christ who reflexively label themselves free thinkers need a hug from dad. Also maybe a little perspective on the hundreds of thousands dead and trillions of dollars spent.

Call it a difference of opinion. I realize different opinions here are often severely frowned upon, and often incite extreme overcompensation for various insecurities. I wasn't trying to trigger you, I promise.

I'm willing to hear you out for sure. Can you quickly summarize the course of action you'd be in favor of? You say we should be facilitating a revolution. From where we stand today, in 3 or 4 sentences describe what you think Trump should do next. The tweets of new explosions and gas hikes will keep coming regardless of what else we discuss on this thread. Might as well keep some variety around here.
