@MarcoPOLO Be thankful for McKinsey, working hard at disarming germany. I'd suggest some McKinsey for the US military to calm stuff down even more.
You probably shouldn't make these ambiguous comments with your brand new alt/Smurf/shill account.
Without a post history I can't tell if you're recommending McKinsey in good faith, which would be hilarious btw.
Or if you're trying to make a sarcastic recommendation because you think McKinsey would have some adverse affect on the efficacy, or posture, of the US DOD. Which would also be funny, as it would imply that you made that joke while being unaware that McKinsey already does quite a lot work within the US MIC.
Anyways, while I found you use of a brand new account to leave that specific comment amusing...still, fuck McKinsey and anyone who's ever worked for them cough Mayor Pete.
@pandapoo It seems you are replying to the wrong message, my account is not new.
The comment was sarcastic. McKinsey has disarmed the german Bundeswehr by siphoning off money. Maybe it is not as effective in the US.
I agree with your general sentiment, i just think removing weapons is a priority, those kill more directly than the alternative.
...you realize that other users can see both your account creation date, and old comments...right?
Your account is literally a day old...or rather, the account you're using at this moment.
@pandapoo Well, either you are blocked from seeing older toots and my creation date or you are lying very transparently.
I could understand you not seeing much history since we had a rough update, but the update is more than a day past and it should not set the creation date to yesterday either.
This account is many months old.
If you visit on their home instance it mentions Nov 2022: https://qoto.org/users/admitsWrongIfProven Probably something that got fucked up in federation along the way.
