kind of, but in the sense that oda is a goat and named the one piece character “Warring States” (literally). the warring states period or sengoku jidai was the period of japanese history prior to the edo era, and was ended by Oda Nobunaga’s overthrow of the Ashikaga Shogunate
it’s pretty interesting history! reading about that period and the meiji restoration is also pretty interesting in the context of one piece. i would actually argue that the wano arc is essentially oda asking “what if the meiji restoration wasn’t reactionary?”
Again, why are you splitting hairs in this situation? The main issue with this is that the US bombed another country, escalating an already tense international conflict.
Will the damage to infrastructure be different? Yes.
Will the act be seen as a lesser act of war? I don’t think so.
It’s shifting focus away from the main issue at hand. Yes, in the future, I’ll speak accurately about the attacks, but your point is purely academic when we’re talking about the material conditions around a bombing.
The problem is that bad faith actors often attempt to discredit one’s argument overall when they are not 100% accurate about the facts.
If I were making a formal statement in a professional setting, I’d want to be as accurate as possible, but on a forum post where the issue is one country bombing another, correcting someone on the nature of the bombings’ targets isn’t adding to the discussion in the same way.
Fordow and Natanz are enrichment sites, and Isfahan is a research reactor, the impact of bombing these sites is not the same as it would be if an operational power reactor was bombed. This is not a minor correction, and significantly impacts how the events should be interpreted. Everyone who responded negatively to this needs to self-crit, the response here is embarrassing.
Just think…all the democrats could’ve comfortably eaten their brunch while those brown children get killed by US bombs! Instead those poor democrats have to worry about whether or not Trump will be a competent enough president to commit crimes against humanity.

WW3 has been ongoing for a few years now
a now 30-year post-soviet sengoku jidai even
Sengoku like the one piece character?

Playing some assassins creed eh
New Cold War
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
depends who wins whether this started it or if the reaction to it starts it.
No, it’s Switch 2 that’s out now
I’ve been coming around to the historical framework that views World War 1 as the end of the world and we’re living in what amounts to the apocalypse
Any interesting reading on that you can share?
No idea sorry, it’s just a vibe I ascribe to

There’s a difference between killing a general and bombing 3 nuclear reactors

I will beat you the fuck up
Is that where you want to split hairs on this issue? You don’t get anything for being technically correct.

Yes, it’s good to be precise with statements.
It’s also good to deliver precise information in a way that does not imply further misinformation. Take this statement:
If you reply with “It’s not X”, you inadvertently imply that nothing has happened. “It’s Y, not X” does not have the same implication.

I don’t mean to attack you, but read the room.

This is such a weird thread and your tidbit of correction was totally inoffensive and benign
What’s the difference? Explain

bombing either reactor or enrichment site is equally reckless af

They attacked Iranian forces outside of Iran, that’s a little different.
We LOST WWIII when our current presidential placeholder was elected.
It would be so much better if a deranged, bloodthirsty democrat was in power. They never wage war against the workers of the middle east.

Biden started this genocide and allowed this to get to this point
