  • It’s a solution that would work in the next 7 years. Unfortunately I live in the American market where the automakers can’t make an affordable car to save their life. I’ve been looking at the used EV market for a year (Hyundai Ioniq 5 or other non-tesla EV) but I just don’t have a spare 20k rolling around in my pockets, nor a salary big enough to finance one. I do take public transportation when I can, but it just doesn’t go by my workplace











  • Ideologically aligned is not quite accurate. I’ve met a couple of academy grads (and many military officers in general) and they’re generally pretty smart. Much smarter than JD Vance is. Some may be aligned ideologically, but I would say that most of them are probably not. It’s a 4-year pipeline too like any college, so they would have joined in 2022.

    They have been noticing the attacks of the Trump administration on higher academia. They’ve been noticing the failures of the Trump administration in foreign policy. They’ve noticed the focus on trying to get rid of the queers and women instead of legitimate Force structure reform.

    They’ve taken civics classes and understand how the government is supposed to work much more than the general population. They might not yell and protest JD Vance, but I don’t think many want to endorse him either.
