Hey that’s true

Also I mean, none of those are gonna deal with a classic high altitude turboprop UAV like the reaper. You can’t see them, you need radar. Nice radar.

Well, yeah that’s the shitty hole. Not having those is just, a grave.

That’s what taxes are though. Yes taxes are a *forced* transaction, but, yeah so is militia “foraging”

Tanks and drones (and etcetera, heavy equipment basically) are necessary for warfare, unless you like living in the shit hole. The shit hole IS an option, but, it’s a really bad one.

Oh I don’t know if I agree, I think either way you aren’t killing them

Idk you shouldn’t waste effort and blood on shit like that

I mean, they weren’t given a choice in the matter, it was armed men coming and demanding value for a service that you didn’t necessarily ask for… yeah that’s pretty much a tax.

Well, why not instead live in a town, in an alliance with other towns, where millions of people all pay in to produce like, tanks and drones and shit, so you can actually engage in offensive warfare and don’t have to live in the same hole you shit in for months straight.

Like whatever militia-centric conflict you’re currently thinking about, yeah that militia was de-facto taxing the populace to pay for materiel
