Military Coup in Myanmar

If we go to war in Myanmar, Fortunate Son and All Along the Watchtower are gonna end up on billboard again lmfao.

I very much doubt we will.

So my war song was for nothing?

Damnit Lumen, you ruined the song for me.

No we cannot send American soldiers to Myanmar. It would be Vietnam all over again.

We are going to though. It’s a perfect opportunity for Biden to gain that “overthrowing evil” cred

The American public is pretty tired of pointless military interventions at this point. It would be a bad move both politically and militarily.

And, as I said, no oil.

On the plus side, we could corner the global ruby market.

But....no oil...

The fact that you are all gleefully shouting for war while I'm worrying fret over here for my friends and relatives back there is uncomfortably disturbing.

Though of course, even in my optimistic views, I unfortunately am aware that there is a very good chance violence might break out. I would really rather that we don't preach war and make this through even with the unreasonable military looming over us.

Addendum: Third day of Civil Disobedience. So far, so good. Well, as "good" as it can get without any escalation.

WHAT AM I GOING TO PUT IN MY CEREAL NOW? MILK?!

Rest assured, most of us aren't gleefully shouting for war. It's just our dark sense of humour from having fought so many unnecessary conflicts. Most of us know that such a situation would only mean disaster, so we won't be so gung-ho.

No, they're right, we took it a little too far.
Sorry Val.

Can't tell if China's faking or not. These seems REALLY weird now.
China is actually criticizing the Coup

Populace seeking support from other Elected Officials

“Not Communist enough. Also, you’re genociding the Muslims all wrong! You’re not supposed to let them leave!”

They aren't Commie at all. They're very far-right it seems.
The second part is more or less true.

Oh, I assumed Communism because Southeast Asia and because it seemed China supported them at first. Of course, pro-China≠Communist, but still.

The Military was smart. They knew what the populace would think of more Communism, so they went the opposite on the Political Scale.
China was very silent at first, and it was VERY suspicious.

Heh I wish, but nah that ain't happening unless some of the guys from Creedence Clearwater Revival pass away.

[Insaanistan]

Mornin’ Myanmar
Never fear
The United States
Is finally here
We’ll kick those Commies
To where? Beijing?
I dunno
US schools
Couldn’t teach me anything
We’ll blow the Myan Cong
To kindgom come
And send them crying to... uh
Hong Kong?
Time to liberate
This jungle land
Look out Commies!
It’s Uncle Sam!

I’m still jammin’ to this.

Just to clarify: I don’t actually want a war ANYWHERE, much less in Myanmar.

We most likely will. Biden is positioning the US to be the global force for good ala what Bush did back in 03. Myanmar is small enough that an invasion isn’t going to ruffle too many feathers and would technically knock a chinese ally out of position giving a better boost to US foreign policy regarding China

Oil is a dumb old meme that holds zero weight
