Just thought I'd let you all know. So let the information warfare start.

Shall we begin with truth, half-truths, or lies? Will hallucination and/or drug induced euphorical dissertations be included in the definition of 'information'? Will 'spin' be required for purposes of blinding the masses?
:D

edit to clarify?

by fluxit

Information warfare treats information and ideas as a weapon. Here is one thought that is information warfare oriented:

Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"; Genesis 3:1

That entire book is abused for purposes of information warfare and social engineering.

Oh joy! More pretentious psuedo-philosophical foolishness from the member (in all senses of the word) who brought us:

and other might-be-metaphysical musings. I can barely wait for your near-protological insertions of random sentences and unsupportable theories. Take the advice William Shatner gave to Trekkies, or that Dean Wermer gave to Kent Dorfman.

to be more like the Brain and Pinky. I am no longer like Chuck Norris. Information Warfare could be like chaotic evil.

Nonetheless, I am back and the war is on! Prehaps, I am more like Slim Pickens riding the ballistic missile between his legs in Dr StrangeLove.

This is great!

by nicknielsen

The Brain starts off great but his plans still fail, Slim Pickens rode an atomic bomb in Dr. Strangelove, and Pinky is still contemplating hippos in bikinis.

Your point?

by maecuff

just wondering here. Is it odd to be male and fantasize about wrapping your legs around a large missile shaped object?

Being female, it sounds fine to me, but I thought you male types shied away from such activities. unless you're JD. :)

by fluxit

You either got it or you don't. If you don't have one, your a whimp or something of a cat like nature.

For those who may be intellectually challenged, The reference to Dr StrangeLove is metaphorical. Let me explain on a lower level. He is Dr StrangeLove and has a Ballistic missile between his legs. This missile is a fallac symbol. The riding of the missile as it bears down on his enemies suggests a euphoric sensibility of enjoyment in engaging his enemies.

Yet another in a long line of verbal (well, textual) forays into the weird. I'm mildly thrilled and mostly nauseated by the prospect.

Do please try keeping this one reasonably clean and absent of malicious attack on the distaff. We are getting a tad tired of your usual brand of misogyny and could use the break.

And kindly recall that there is no one required religion or faith here. This isn't your church and no one here needs you to "save" them. In fact, you'll find that if you want to save souls, tolerance will get you further than berating.

Just some thoughts.

by fluxit

For every action there is a equal and opposite action. I only react to your own form of IW in your post. Any beratings originated not from me.

by Member 25348569

If it involves him giving me money, I'm perfectly happy to be saved. It's been an expensive start to the New Year and I could do with a bit of Christian Charity!

:D

by fluxit

once and that was enough for me. You'd have to be insane to stay there...

... So I am back and your ability to predict and continually get it wrong is an indication of insanity.

by fluxit

whose perspective you take. If you take any one of 8 billion human beings perspectives, you'll have 8 billion purposes. If you take the Judeo/Christian God's perspective then you get 1 purpose.

by Member 25348569

When I last counted, there was around 6.5 billion human beings.

Oh. And you.

Not having seen any gods, I can't comment on your last sentence.

p.s. Are you aware that among the side-effects of steroids is to shrink the testicles and grow breasts? Team America on steroids indeed!

by fluxit

I have done the real thing. I have been in every major conflict since 1988. I was in Panama, The Arabian Gulf three times, Iraq, Somalia, 911, and now I am off somewhere else.

War is a way of life for me while you sit back there and enjoy your freedoms. I am like Team America on steroids!

by jamesrl

You chose that life. You presumably have re-upped a number of times. You had the choice and you made it.

As a Canadian, not sure how Panama helped my freedoms, but hey feel what you want to feel. We'd probably disagree about Iraq (I've been consistent though, not a bandwagon person), but not on the first Gulf War.

You must be a squiddy to be in the Arabian Gulf three times. San Diego is a bit of a give away too.

We don't need warfar here at TR. Don't mind a spirited debate, but civilty is good.

I know many current military personnel including some in my own family.

I have never heard anyone who has referred to themselves as "Team America on steroids." All of those in the military alway refer to themselves as part of a team not as the team. This is especially true of those in combat positions. This was one of the things my father drilled into me.

Maybe you are in the military. If so, there is nothing I can say that would adequately express my gratitude for all you do for our country. That said, I don't believe it. I don't think you have every been in the military. I think that you even pretending to be in the military is abhorrent. I believe you are nothing more than a troll with delusions of grandeur. That is just my opinion of course.

-edited for smurf and spelling. sorry tig.

by charliespencer

If you've been in since '88, that would make you a senior NCO, at least an E-7, or at least an O-4 (p). You certainly don't express yourself like a senior service person, but tell you what. Tell us your branch, pay grade, technical skill, and what military facility you received your initial technical training. Since we've got members here from every branch of service, maybe someone can validate your story.

Me, I don't think you could tell an MRE from an M17.

by nicknielsen

...that he's only an E-4/E-5 and will be forced out this year. In fact, given the thought processes exposed in his posts, I'd say that's probably a given.

by jdclyde

when the time is right, I will be there. Of course, we both know I can't afford to wait to long to get my revenge.... :0

When you least expect it, expect it..... :p

by jamesrl

The scene with the person riding the bomb is from the movie "Dr. Strangelove" but the charecter riding the bomb is Major "King" Kong played by Slim Pickens.

You do know that it was a black satirical comedy right? It really made huge pointed fun at the american military, the Joint chiefs, the president etc.

And its spelled "Phallic".

And Secretary Gates can kiss my @ss for his comments on Canadian participation in Afghanistan. He issued retractions and all that BS, and thats all it was.

Welcome back.

...to walking away from TR for a while.

Example: I was gone for a few months and I have no idea who FluxIt is. Based on reading this thread, I am blessed.

SHELL! Hope it's all going well for you! How're you doin'?

by shellbot

Its all good.. :)
New job..so less stress for the moment..other than that..same ole same ole!

How about you? Where ya keep disapearing to??

by charliespencer

you can get by without the Prozac.

DMambo, see my "Franklin Mint" post above for links to some of this ... person's previous subjects.

Timothy Leary's estate called; they'd like his "medications" back.
