That\u2019s a nice moral argument you got there. Would be a shame if I generalized it.

\n

see this is why you gotta build a segment in your argument that depends on your personal charisma, so if your opponents get hold of it it won\u2019t hold up on morality or logic alone

it\u2019s like how America exports weapons with planned obsolescence dependency built in - gotta get those F-14 parts/Stinger coolant packs, who knows when one of our allies will get subverted

meanwhile the Soviets optimized for manufacture/repair/maintenance away from supply chains, which is why China isn\u2019t Russian
