That's a complete shift to a different topic. How you managed to get from the disruption of international cargo routes following a possible Chinese attack to solar energy is beyond me and probably required you to twist your upper body backward and around your groin at least a dozen tines, that's how mentally gymnastic you seem to be.
You in the future sitting in Russian Gulag for doing random shit your overlords deemed subversive, surrounded by half starving, miserable people who are fed nothing but propaganda about the supreme leader every day, BUT AT LEAST THE GAS IS CHEAP
I had him on ignore for a while, looks like he's going back

Using images of Obama and Kamala to try and justify Elon's Nazi Salute is a low I never thought humanity would reach. "He's autistic, he didn't mean to do that". Show me another autistic person doing the whole bit on accident, you can't. They blatantly show us their agenda each and every day but clowns continue to excuse it and justify it by only examining one drop of water while ignoring the entire ocean of evidence. This election wasn't about the price of gas or the price of eggs or whatever bullshit bottom 99% conservatives have been brainwashed to believe, we're seeing what it was really about with each passing day of this clown's second term and to top it off, they're working on opening the door to #3.
That's what he does usually?
Fluffy you're using the internet as of right now, nothing stops you from looking up topics you don't know much about. Every person who knows their shit looked it up at some point. This level of education resistance seen in political extremists is reaching ridiculous levels.

That was a practice known as bacha bazi, which literally translates to 'boy play.' It involved powerful or wealthy local figures in Afghanistan 'convincing' young boys to dress in women's clothes and perform dances for their entertainment. These boys often came from impoverished families on the brink of starvation, who were forced to sell their sons to a bacha baz-a term used to describe a man involved in this practice, described as having the boys 'adopted' in exchange for food and money.
Many of the Afghan men involved in bacha bazi were warlords high up in the chain of command, and even local and border police forces had individuals who practiced it. U.S. servicemen did not address or attempt to outlaw this practice because it was considered a cultural norm in the region. Addressing it would have risked alienating key Afghan allies, which would have complicated the strategic relationships that the U.S. Army depended on to maintain stability and achieve their objectives...so from the commanders' POV, problematic incidents such as this could be ignored as long as it didn't directly interfere with whatever objectives the commanders of the operation had in mind at the time.
Some service members did report the practice to their commanders, but they were told there was nothing that could be done. They were explicitly instructed to ignore it and move on. One Green Beret, Sgt. 1st Class Charles Martland, reacted by striking an Afghan police officer after the officer admitted to sexually assaulting a boy and beating the boy’s mother for reporting it to the authorities. However, Martland’s actions resulted in him being 'relieved of duty' for assault.
Luckily he was reinstated as a result of the to public backlash from the American public, but it could be argued that he never should have been relieved of command in the first place.
