Why isn't anyone talking about Trump ending the Afghanistan war like Obama promised? Was it too left for the right? Was it too progressive for the left? Was the timing too obvious?
Normally this kind of news would have /b chock full of threads in a full circlejerk by now...
Sure, just like his great "deal" with Kim Jong Un They even fell in love, wasn't that adorable?
Brandon Green
I'll believe it when I see it. Trump hasn't accomplished anything
Aaron Rogers
Is it not uncharacteristically quiet on /b though? Usually there are three threads up minutes after Trump farts let alone actually "doing" something...it's almost like nobody is quite sure how to respond.
Julian Smith
probably just waiting for the talking points to know what the appropriate response should be
Joseph Adams
Lol I bet you think Obama accomplished a lot. He was a shitty president and if he wasn’t followed by Trump we’d all be reflecting on how the DNC literally shamed people into voting a lackluster politician into the presidency solely because he is (half) black
Leo Baker
>Why isn't anyone talking about Trump ending the Afghanistan war like Obama promised?
Because Cred Forums simps for Trump and he "ended" it by making a fucking deal with the taliban, giving them exactly what they wanted for nothing.
All the US got were "reassurances" from a fucking terrorist group they spent 20 years and trillions of taxpayers dollars trying to destroy.
No one on here is talking about it because Trump is now the president that let the Taliban win.
Nathan Parker
Because orange man bad
Gavin Garcia
Remember when he said we were pulling out of Syria and then we didn't? Anyone with half a brain is waiting to see if he actually does it.
Kayden Butler
Because he's starting up a global conflict and isolating you guys from your allies in the process.You are literally going to be left as China and Russia's bitch.
Adam Taylor
I think it's great. But there's still a long way to go before the peace deal can be considered a success.
William Cook
Because Obama won a Nobel prize for being a nigger.
Julian Watson
The truth is there will never be an end to the war, people become bitter and spiteful because they mistreat each other. People plot revenge under a viel of white knighting everyday, they claim they are doing good while committing terrible acts of torture and crimes against humanity, first for resources, then to their own causes, then just for general principles, acts of treason happen everyday because the world is unfair, and when something like killing a person due to neglect or direct subhuman shit happens it causes a shift in attention, its distracting to watch people die, it later develops to a past-time, it becomes the state of the world to not just expect it but look forward to it, because its fun to watch them suffer....they deserve to suffer.
Jace Cox
>Why isn't anyone talking about Trump ending the Afghanistan war like Obama promised? Because he's Republican and the media are Democrats
Ryan Reed
What Afghanistan war, there was never a war, they had trouble with the Taliban, not Afghanistan you fucking mong.
Grayson Howard
Lol you thought people were going to talk about this deal like its actually going to happen. Nobody respects trump internationally he literally is a joke the entire world understands the punchline to
Benjamin Perez
This fucker just surrendered to a bunch of fucking towel headed fuckers Cowardly orange cunt Fucking shame on you for celebrating Defeat cunts
Benjamin Hill
Yes in the country of Afghanistan. Stop playing semantics you dumb cunt
Luis Stewart
Better get some more tinfoil for your hat. Your ears are still exposed.
Robert Green
It's not semantics you window-licker. There was no war against Afghanistan, it was the Taliban who are in several countries not just Afghanistan.
Obama accomplished more drone strikes and targeted killings than anyone before him.
He also cemented the largest expansion of big brother and the mass surveillance of citizens domestically.
I mean I'm not a fan of those accomplishments but they are accomplishments.
Matthew Bennett
Relax smoothbrain, we've been entwined with Afghanistan longer than you've been old enough to not have a "bedtime". I understand why you don't know what we're talking about in this thread but it's no reason to call someone a mong.
Jaxon Jackson
Putin and his Russian troll army do not want it celebrated, thus little conversation
we were barely even doing anything in afghanistan, come back when he ends iraq
Oliver Fisher
You're actually retarded, go ahead and put a barrel in your mouth and pull the trigger
Jeremiah Cook
What did they give the Taliban?
Julian Gray
Because it hasn't happened. He made a deal to make a deal based on promises from terrorists. Until more talks are had this "deal" changes literally nothing.
Jose Parker
Afghanistan.
Ayden Bennett
McDonalds and PornHub
Cooper Jones
hard to give a shit when we are all about to be wiped from the face of the planet cause gooks just had to eat bat soup
Logan Parker
The Taliban came about from the US funding irregular forces which promised to resist the Soviet sphere of influence. Enemy of my enemy mentality.
Unfortunately they were in no way actual friends and once the Soviets mostly stopped giving a shit they turned to oppressing their own people with a particularly repressive form of Islam known as wahhabism.
Then they done goofed and (with Saudi support and funding) went ahead and poked the bear.
The US and its allies responded with force but never managed to dig them out of all their caves and shithole desert regions because enough civvies had been convinced of their ideology and also that the big bombs from the west were indiscriminately killing them alongside the Taliban.
Finally the US got greedy and started an expansionist war in Iraq and left its NATO allies holding the bag in Afghanistan as the US pivoted and knocked over the anthill.
Now the US is finally admitting defeat and making a deal with the entity that has caused the single greatest amount of casualties by a foreign power on US soil since the Revolutionary War.
That about sum it up?
Jason Stewart
>america couldnt beat goat farmers >stay in an area unwanted for decades >leave with their tail between their legs after not being able to beat farmers
sounds like nam to me. america is so bad at war its astounding
Jose Anderson
I'm not a Trump supporter, but credit where credit is due. If this works, it'll probably be the best thing he ever did in office.
Ryan Edwards
an ASS-whoopin'
Aaron Howard
Like any Trump deal, there's a lot of loose strings. Doesn't take effect for 14 months, if then. Just another empty declaration.
Isaiah Cook
enjoy it before coronavirus murders you
Noah Bailey
I'm in my late 20's and reasonably healthy. Even if I contract COVID-19, I have a pretty good chance of survival.
Carson Torres
checked can you imagine if Obama tried to make peace with the taliban, but also lifted the restriction on their participating in AF elections again?
republicans are a joke. the party that always squanders the budget surplus on corporate welfare after inheriting the economy from democrats. the party of national security my ass.
“Never believe that (reactionaries) are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

YOU FUCKING IDIOT IT HAS A 100 PERCENT DEATH RATE EVERYONE WHO GETS IT DIES GET READY TO BE WIPED THE FUCK OUT
If it was 100% lethal as you're LARPing it'd be a non issue since basic epidemiology says such a virus would necessarily be self-limiting.
Gabriel Brown
wikipedia answer
Zachary Gray
its 100 percent lethal and 100 percent contagious
WHY WONT YOU BE SCARED?
Wyatt Mitchell
I'm honestly not sure how to reply to that.
Anything you care to actually challenge or debunk or do you just have meme responses?
Jaxson Ortiz
Because it isn't scary and can mostly be prevented from proper handwashing.
Prions OTOH are fucking terrifying. Go spend an afternoon googling that shit.
Isaiah Myers
do not feed the trolls-.
Levi Jackson
I WILL NOT FUCKING WASTE MY TI0ME WASHING MY HANDS WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TRYING TO PULL? ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE ME ANGRY? SICK? HATE YOU? KILL YOU? FUCK OFF AND GO DIE OF EBOLA NEVER SUGGEST I WASH MY HANDS AGAIN
Bentley Baker
That's kinda a self-defeating statement here on Cred Forums.
It's an ocean of piss and we're all swimming in it.
(And this is still better than another tranny thread).

Prions aren't even alive. They're just a folded protein that gets inside of us and fucks shit up. One method of infection literally comes about from eating people's brains.
Basically the closest thing to a zombie outbreak that we'll ever see is a prion infection.
Eli Peterson
Ok boomboom. You're 47 and arguing on an anonymous message board and you're upset at someone's source...
Consider dilation.
Zachary Morris
That's nice how you thought I was someone else. You must be paranoid as fuck not to see the difference in posting style.
