That's more of a geopolitical paradox being played out for profit than an ACTUAL war, though..

[-] bumblefumble@mander.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

I mean, how is the war in Afghanistan not a war?

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

That WAS a war. An ill-advised (to say the very least) invasion using the "war" on terror as a pretext.

Nah, it's the truth.

The "war on terror" isn't any more of an actual war than the "war on drugs", and it's every bit as demagogic and counterproductive.

Yeah except the war on terror involved the military - soldiers fighting. Not law enforcement and drugs.

Funny how you get to defend your stupid point by just redefining what war is.

[-] ooterness@lemmy.world -4 points 1 day ago

It says "war" right there in the title.

And "AI" has 'intelligence' right in the title. What's your point?

[-] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 0 points 17 hours ago

His point is that the war on terror is an actual war and Canadian exceptionalism doesn't change that.

[-] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 0 points 15 hours ago

Okay, who is the leader of "Terror"? Did Terror surrender? Was any sort of peace treaty signed? Or is the war on going?

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I mean, technically, the shorthand "AI" doesn't have "intelligence" in it, as it only has the "A" which can be discarded for the purpose of this statement, and the "I" which is missing several necessary characters.

I'm a blast at parties.
