A Thread:

I’ve been seeing a large number of posts portraying the Chinese summit as an inevitable win, given the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

This post will be a detailed account of precisely why that’s fantasy.

@lookner @EndGameWW3 Shocking

@LasagneWest And even then, they were delivered half a year late and some customers just didn’t get one. lol

@Capa800 @cranium243 @sentdefender Wasn’t an accident, wasn’t a misfire trying to hit something else nearby, it’s attacking a vulnerability that an entire region shares.

It’s not a justification, I apologize if it’s been framed as such, but it is your explanation.

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@Capa800 @cranium243 @sentdefender I’m not going to argue the ethics about this with you. Irregardless of position in a war, attacking water infrastructure is a warcrime. It’s bad when both do it.

But both recognize the strategic promise when the entire region has an issue with drinking water.

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@Capa800 @sentdefender Don’t disagree with you, Mate. It’s just been talked about for months now how water reserves and desalination plants in a water scarce region would likely be utilized as leverage at some point.

I’m just making the point it wasn’t accidental.

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@cranium243 @sentdefender I’m well aware. I’m not trying to defend it, those weren’t my intentions. But rather Iran’s depleting water supply have unfortunately made it a U.S. leverage point.

It’s also why Iran will hit desalination plants of GCC countries.

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@cranium243 @sentdefender Water scarcity in the broader Middle East have simply just made it targets that were inevitably going to be hit in some capacity as the “ceasefire” rages on.

@sentdefender Fellas, fellas. Fret not, a deal is in the final stages, just a couple of days really. Nothing ever happens.

@MPG4Real @Wendigoon8 Great question. It’s actually Wendigoon on the Cover of Madden 13.

@BenStiller ☹️

@lattes101 @citizengatsby @jaketapper @atrupar You got upset about fees for late ballots casted that ultimately slow the election process but are somehow fine with disenfranchising tens of thousands of voters instead.

You have an odd set of standards.

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@lattes101 @citizengatsby @jaketapper @atrupar Again, not all mail arrives on the same day, not everybody files theirs on the same day. Doing so would restrict the voting rights of thousands, as happened in Kansas when they passed a similar measure.

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@lattes101 @citizengatsby @jaketapper @atrupar Not all mail arrives on the same day, not everybody files theirs at once. Fees for procrastination make sense, denying the right to vote does not. Worm.

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@lattes101 @citizengatsby @jaketapper @atrupar Cry about it I guess, lmfao. If your ballots late after having two whole months to have filed one, then sucks to suck.

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@lattes101 @citizengatsby @jaketapper @atrupar You still have two months if you’re in the military to do exactly that. You can mail it, vote electronically, whatever the case may be.

Genuinely retarded. 😭

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@lattes101 @citizengatsby @jaketapper @atrupar If you can’t file a ballot within roughly a two month timeframe, you’re just fucking dumb, I’m afraid. 😭

[Dorado @BarackO472]

@lattes101 @citizengatsby @jaketapper @atrupar Yes, because 52-67 days is hard cutoff to get a ballot filed. 💀

45-60 day ballot delivery in advance, can still apply seven days after election day, just not at any later.

So no. That’s not a hard cut off at all. Maybe if you’re useless and procrastinate. You projecting?
