Idk why everyone thinks the old designs look "lame," the old designs were plenty cool, it clashes well with the Old Sith Trooper design and Neo Mandalorian crusader armor.
The amount of self-hate Americans have towards their own history is truly unreal.
They defeated slavery by fighting against their own family.
They shut Europe out of the western hemisphere so that nations wouldn't live under colonization forever.
They had the ability to stay out of world war 1 but they went and died to help Europeans.
They had the ultimate power in the nuclear bomb. They also had access to all of Europe's colonies that were in shambles. But instead they promoted freedom. They rebuilt Japan and Germany after defeating them in war. They stood down the Soviet Union, even as the world jeered them.
They sent soldiers to places like Vietnam and Afghanistan that died TRYING to create a better world (even if you disagree with those wars, the intentions were fairly good)
And they sent more missionaries to the world than maybe any other country in history. Translated more Bibles into indigenous languages than any other country in history. Ran bigger charities than any other country in history. Created more Christian resources than any other country in history.
Whether it was stopping the Dutch from reconquering Indonesia to the Berlin Airlift to giving Cuba its freedom in the Spanish-American war to saving China from the Japanese America has at least ATTEMPTED to do good with its power.
Yes yes, America has problems. People are imperfect. But goodness gracious does the world have a lot to be grateful for in America. And when we could have taken SO much from the world we have often chosen not to. Rome, Britain, Mongols, Assyrians, Soviets, Chinese, no other group has ever shown the restraint America has consistently shown with such vast power at its fingertips.
We didn't even get into the GIGANTIC technological advances, consumer advances, convenient lifestyle changes America has pioneered. From electricity to space to the light bulb to the smart phone to many cures in medicine and agriculture to the airplane the world has been enormously blessed by America.
@Ru_NRD @chatnigga101 The entire premise of international law that Marc is speaking of is wrongly understood.
It's backed by America and the global communities ability to force that and under America's discretion.
Lest we all forget which superpower created the UN and the ICC.
@chatnigga101 There needs to be someone informed up there to push back against Marc. The Iranian regime isn’t just an innocent party seeking to protect its people. It’s had some horrific human rights violations, has been extremely oppressive to women, and has killed thousands of Americans.
I honestly don’t know what’s cooler: Toonami making and airing a review of Knights of the Old Republic on Cartoon Network back in 2003, or the fact that they ended up giving it a perfect score
