Reconstruction did funny stuff and the mindsets at the time were different. The entire idea of the civil war centered around if we had a federal or confederated government. The confederate argument was states had to ratify the constitution, so therefore they could deratify and break away. Looking back this is obviously wrong, but a large minority of people believed this at the time, including the 15th President I believe. On the other hand, since Lee surrendered unconditionally, the thought process was you don’t kick the man while he’s down. Plus many men in the Union still considered Lee a heroic American figure. Not imprisoning him most likely led to an easier surrender by the rest of the Confederate forces and less paramilitary actions. Reconstruction further limited the punishment of top officials which was a mistake, though there was 0 chance they could end the thoughts and ideals that led to jim crow and the kkk, they could have certainly limited it.
It’s how info flows though. Your small group of nerds knows, but one of those nerds is good buddys with a football player and tells them. Now they know, they create ai porn of a chearleader, and now everyone knows.
If the incident was a one off I could see that as true, like the US boat during the six day war when everything was hectic as hell and all communications had seemingly been cutoff. This is unfortunately not an isolated incident, and the benefit if the doubt should not be given.
White Anglo Saxon Protestant. That term is actually fairly narrow when you think of it. In truth there are no truly great catch all white slurs, only great slurs for groups of different whites.
Cessnas are rugged enough, you could probably just bolt the AMRAAM attachment points to the wing and call it a day.
Both in fact. Training data for things like this regularly mix up minority people. If Omar is a upstanding citizen, but gets his face mixed with Haani, known terrorist, Omar gets treated unfairly, potentially to the point of lethality.
Sounds like scallop imports are about to go crazy in Vancouver.
I still believe that the image being posted was 100% planned by the powers to be to show we have the ability to do it.
Again, deep diving into the lore, the NCR was on the decline already. We see it in New Vegas. The Bear was bloated and encumbered itself with pointless wars of expansion and major corruption. The Boneyard Seperatists were gaining traction, and other parts of the country were in economic distress. The Mojave Territory is simultaneously over and underfunded, and is being used as a distraction from the major internal problems. If Shady Sands was nuked in a non-NCR ending to New Vegas I could see every city rising up and forming their own states.
