So - I assume you are joking (I am comprehension-challenged), and "1931" is yet something else they got wrong in the meme! Otherwise (again joking): Cool that this was planned "10 years before the war"! Oh, Love. There is sooooo much wrong with this that it would take a short essay to explicate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bree Giffen Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 This whole contrarian thing reminds me of the tenth man where Israeli intelligence acknowledged the possibility of groupthink failure and made a policy of assigning one person to oppose them. https://www.thestar.com/news/insight/2017/05/21/how-israeli-intelligence-failures-led-to-a-devils-advocate-role.html 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it was too funny to resist. It wouldn't be hard to find other more legit versions -- but they'd likely be more overtly political than I want to get into here. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were going to make it in time for the "day that will live on in infamy," they needed that much time. So, yeah, this argument looks convincing, but is flawed. It's flawed because the flat earth map looks like this anyway 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On topic: Disagreeing - should not be AR. Insulting - maybe AR, depends on a lot. Well some do insult diplomatically. It leaves the other wondering whether there is agreement or not. In ways the more direct insult is nicer because at least the other isn't left wondering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
