I know you're probably a kind person, but imo, this kind of reductionistism is incompatible with being pro-trans-rights.

Are you trapped in here with me? Or am I trapped in here with you?

It's not particularly true outside the US though, most NATO members spend less than the 2%, and here in the UK the army is down to 30k or so staff. In a nation of 70 million. If total war were to break out, how long could the UK survive?

Meanwhile NHS spending as a % of GDP rose even under the conservatives, although this figure doesn't take into account an aging population.

You could alternatively phrase "But that's the thing where you are wrong" as "But here's the crux of why I disagree", it's a bit more personable

If the NSA (GCHQ here in the UK) want my emails they're getting it either way, I'm not able to stop nation states

They're not paying much per half hour, only $400k, maybe this makes sense lol? They'd only need to make $590k per half hour, which for, say, 50 hours total of original content (it is a chicken restaurant after all) with a $5/mo subscription over five years equates to only 23k subscribers averaged over those five years for an over 8% ROI, which given how many people sign up for these $/mo streaming services doesn't seem insane.
