    for the longest time, i thought being magnetic was something you either had or didn’t. i used to watch others shine while i felt stuck. then i found Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki, and it made me realize it’s all about the vibe you give off. chapter 3 especially changed the way i carry myself-it’s such a powerful shift.

      Milley & McCaffrey are both honourable men that served their country at the highest possible level with distinction. I'm not looking for an argument, but to say anything else is simply untrue. It's possible you're letting your political bias prompt you to make armchair observations of men that are far more complex than can be see from an armchair, yours or mine. But you & I both know that you don't rise to the position those men rose to in the greatest military force to ever be assembled in the history of the human race by chance. They are honourable men, good men...just because you disagree politically doesn't mean you have to slander their legacy.

      The Big Brain/Little Brain Fallacy (also, the Führerprinzip; Mad Leader Disease): A not-uncommon but extreme example of the Blind Loyalty Fallacy below, in which a tyrannical boss, military commander, or religious or cult-leader tells followers "Don't think with your little brains (the brain in your head), but with your BIG brain (mine)."
      Blind Loyalty (also Blind Obedience, Unthinking Obedience, the "Team Player" appeal, the Nuremberg Defense): The dangerous fallacy that an argument or action is right simply and solely because a respected leader or source (a President, expert, one’s parents, one's own "side," team or country, one’s boss or commanding officers) says it is right.

      Try and support your position and you'll have more creditably.
      In a debate, the onus of proof, or burden of proof, is typically placed upon the person making the claim; meaning whoever asserts a statement is responsible for providing evidence to support it.
      Key points about the onus of proof:
      Claimant responsibility:
      The individual making a claim bears the burden of proving its truthfulness.
      Logical principle:
      This principle is based on the idea that a statement should not be considered true unless there is sufficient evidence to support it.
      Shifting the burden:
      Attempting to put the onus of proof on the person denying a claim is considered a logical fallacy.

    I'm not impressed with how many women have been killed in combat, they and even any of our young men should have never had to suffer combat to begin with. I'm a student of military history and have met hundreds of combat veterans from multiple conflicts and I have an extensive home library on the subject of war. My father (U.S.M.C.) was wounded in Korea. Are we so short on memory that we've forgotten the complete waste in Afghanistan? Do any of these people actually know what horrendous violence occurs in combat, and on both sides. Have we completely missed the stories of adversaries meeting some time after they faced each other on the battlefield becoming close friends lamenting the loss of dear friends and stating there should be no more wars? I've met decorated veterans deeply saddened by their experience and the loss of so many comrades. Anyone who thinks it's a good idea to subject a young woman (or young men) to the continual violent disintegration of another human being, hearing the sounds of wounded screaming from 4th degree burns or taking part in a graves registration detail should have their head examined. If any parent of a KIA child (because that soldier will always be their child) were asked if they would like that child back what would they say? Yes or No......Really?

      The Bandwagon Fallacy (also, Argument from Common Sense, Argumentum ad Populum): The fallacy of arguing that because "everyone," "the people," or "the majority" (or someone in power who has widespread backing) supposedly thinks or does something, it must therefore be true and right.
      Blind Loyalty (also Blind Obedience, Unthinking Obedience, the "Team Player" appeal, the Nuremberg Defense): The dangerous fallacy that an argument or action is right simply and solely because a respected leader or source (a President, expert, one’s parents, one's own "side," team or country, one’s boss or commanding officers) says it is right. This is over-reliance on authority, a gravely corrupted argument from ethos that puts loyalty above truth, above one's own reason and above conscience.

      A "correlation causation fallacy" is a logical fallacy where someone mistakenly assumes that because two things are correlated (happen together), one must cause the other, without providing sufficient evidence to establish a true cause-and-effect relationship; essentially, it means confusing a simple association between two variables with a direct causal link
