amywebb You're missing my argument. Not only is it not just that this does not have to be the way this works. Not only is transparency better. The military has no need to manage those gaps. We can bomb and shoot people just fine without holographic HUDs making it into Call of Duty.Permalink On twitter.com

amywebb This is all on behalf of profit. We will never go to war with a nation that could actually match us technologically or come even close. Not in any way that isn't handled through low-tech proxies. This isn't 1940.Permalink On twitter.com
