They are not. These are communist owned, the communists running the state create war and steal money from the public then hand it over to their commie friends known as "weapons companies", you have been duped.

Wrong, US military spending is >50% of all spending. https://www.nationalpriorities.org/campaigns/military-spending-united-states/

You are living in a communist slave system.

No, they are capitalist owned. if they were communist the people would own them.

And that graph is completely inaccurate. here is the budget actual from 2015:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_United_States_federal_budget#Outlays_by_budget_function

Notice how military spending is 631 billion out of 3.89 trillion, which is about 16%.

And the budget from 2022 had an even lower percentage of military spending:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_United_States_federal_budget

Seriously, vet your sources man, that crap you linked to is easily disproven.

You are looking at budget definitions, I was looking at what it actually being spent. More communist deception.

Even if your data is completely right that is still insanely too high, the communist war machine needs to be stopped!

[-] Tavarin@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

No you weren't, you were linking to a shitty website with false data. You were the one duped by lies and propaganda.

And yes, the 12% is still too high, the US doesn't need to spend nearly that much on the military. But they aren't spending 50+%, that was just a lie, from a shitty website that fooled you.

[-] tusker@monero.town 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, the website you linked to is the correct data. Of course how stupid of me.

[-] Tavarin@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Wikipedia, yes. It's publicly editable and verifiable by anyone.

Nationalpriorities.org is a pile of propaganda designed to fool you. You don't even know who's running it.

[-] tusker@monero.town 1 points 1 year ago

wikipedia? umm no it's not, it is state propaganda with mostly lies and official narratives. are you retarded?

[-] Tavarin@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

No, that would clearly be you at this point.

The state does not own, or run Wikipedia, it's a non-profit organization. And if you find something wrong on a Wikipedia page, then find a source for correction and correct it.

And who exactly runs that crap site you posted?

[-] tusker@monero.town 1 points 1 year ago

They lock edits and it is controlled. Find one Wikipedia page that contradicts the state narrative. Only mainline propaganda is allowed there any other information is automatically labled conspiracy.

It is full of bias and lies as well as baseless character assassinations. It is fully controlled by leftists. You are a leftist so you think it is free and open.

[-] Tavarin@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

You don't even know the definitions of communism and capitalism, or what politically left and right even mean, and you try to lecture others on propaganda and politics? You're so far off the deep end no one can even see you anymore.

And there are plenty of right wing proponents on Wikipedia, it's far form a left wing site.
