      I've been accused of posting super woke stuff because of simply having female representation in a few stories, but I don't really see that as being woke. Joan of Ark, for instance, is a hero of mine. Females in leadership roles and on the front isn't unheard of. Maybe less common, but it irks me when the channel and my writers are called woke for having them. (People get excessively butthurt now. I suspect it's because of what certain entertainment companies, particularly ones that start with a D and end with isney have done.)

      @@zeehero7280 Being woke or feminist is politically the same thing this past decade. Feminists decided to attach their cause to woke due to the early success of woke. This is why feminist leaders are forced to accept that men who feel they are women are in their political minds, women. This is the twisted reason why feminists have surrendered women's safe spaces of women's sports, public bathrooms and change rooms.
      You don't realize or can't accept you are being manipulated. In real life testing, the results have been in for many, many years. In physical combat, piloting a fighter jet in combat scenarios, in military strategy testing, hell even in playing chess women do worse than men for various reasons.
      Human leaders, scientific leaders, military commanders and elite soldiers in these woke AI stories are almost all women. Do you seriously not get that these best of the best AI stories are not woke feminist stories?
      When you talk about the best of the best the only category that women do compete very well in is as scientists as distinct to scientific leaders which is more about administration and politics. This is not putting women down, this is really just areas that men do much better in and not listing areas that women do far better in.

      many profit alot from war and destruction. You think the American "aid" to Ukraine goes to Ukraine as a banktransfer? Or do you think America is lend-leasing their old weapons stock and pumping all that money back into their economy by boosting the American weapon manufactures to renew their own warmachine's stock. Saying war is not profitable is nonsense, specialy if you manage to sell to both sides without them finding out.

      That might be true, but historically war isn't good for business as well. The whole concept of it being good actually arose around the world wars ONLY for when the US wasn't a part of the wars and was just selling materials and taking loans from folks. Once you get in and get on a total war footing it's not beneficial. Plus the destruction wrought and all of that, es no bueno.
      Just my take though.
