    Rome had an idle population and how did that work out? At the end they didn't have the will to defend themselves. Sounds familiar. We will pay money we don't have to defend a border 4600 miles away, but won't even pretend to defend our own southern border. Then we are happy to provide bread and circuses to the invaders. Idle hands are the devil's workshop. If you won't work to earn a living but expect someone else to provide for you, you aren't living, you are just existing.

    Rome was always going to fall. If it wasn't that (and I'm not sure it was entirely or mostly that), it would have been something else. Rome was born of high stakes betrayal. Romulus killed Remus over an argument about where to begin the building of Rome. Even at its very beginning, one brother killed another to hold @Swaye over Rome. The city was constantly ebbing and flowing for the better and for the worse over political rivalry and skulduggery. Rome was doomed from the start. But what a fucking empire it was, eh?
    Rome was also complacent and didnt have better military tech than the competition

    Legions were great. Then everyone else caught up.

    Doesn't help when you have dozens of civil wars all the time, either.

    Doesn't help when you give away all your war fighting equipment either.
    The US has given Ukraine lots of older artillery equipment, old Bradleys, and old Abrams

    All of these models are scheduled to be replaced.

    The thing that matters most if you are the United States is the Air Force and the Navy. These are the real teeth of the military. There is no peer to the F-22 or the F-35.

    Many military experts believe the F-16 is better than anything Russia can field, and especially China.

    Additionally, the naval equipment is vastly superior. The US has over a dozen carrier groups. China sort of has 1, and Russia can't even take their dilapidated POS out to sea.

    The only thing China has that is at all decent is their anti-ship missles. No one knows how good those are and how well a carrier group with submarine support would do against them. And we will more than 99.99% likely never find out.

    The US does not want to invade Russia or China, so who really gives a shit about artillery? The US will be fine and can produce shells at a decent clip if needed.

    Tldr, the Air Force and Navy is the real imperial force. Not the javelin infantry launcher or some old ass humvees
    My father in law is jerking off uncontrollably to your comments about the navy.

    I mean, hasn't been brought up but Quantum Computing and that whole race was the doomsday thing 10 years ago. What happened to that?

    I talk to guys still doing the real shit. I don't make vague references. An F16 is still a great fighter and may still have older missiles to use after a week. An older m1 Abrams is still better than 99% of tanks we'd face. Same with a Bradley. Scheduled to be replaced and have been replaced is quite a bit different!

    You guys worry too much...

    UBI is a lot more likley than Skynet

    The machines wont need to do population control anyways. Births are down across the globe.

    Your generation is exactly what @Doogles is talking about. Too cool for school as we used to say. Why worry?

    Because you have no grasp of history or human nature. Keep scrolling bro. UBI needs someone to pay into it. Who would that be?

    There is no reason to keep a large population that does nothing that you need to pay. You're actually giving credence to the theory that your masters want to trim 81% of the world population.

    @Doogles is dialed in on deep fakes and the general destruction of society

    Good luck the rest of the way

    I had a good run. I doubt you will because you want to leave it in the hands of folks who don't give a shit about you
    Sounds grim.

    Bodies stacked like cordwood? Lmao

    Again - you worry too much

    Keep worrying buddy
    I don't think he's worried. I think he's trying to provide some advice which is falling on deaf ears.

    Quantum Computing is helping advance AI. Once the spectrum of light is used to move data, and copper, gold etc become obsolete, this advancement will become exponential. My only input in this debate would be to focus on the positive but have a healthy respect for the negative.
