@emptywheel well, fewer killed at least

@ryanlcooper I keep wondering whether we have Lockheed incompetence or Chinese sabotage to make sure F35 didn't add to kill numbers. -
@emptywheel wait, what do you mean "add to kill numbers?" like the sucker going down in flames? -
@ryanlcooper No. That I don't think they'll start any wars based on our F-35 advantage soon. -
@emptywheel ah ok, hahah -
@emptywheel Chinese command is prob just waiting for us to bankrupt ourselves with broke-ass fighters and supercarriers -
@ryanlcooper I suspect they helped us, tho admittedly Lockheed may not have needed their help. -
@emptywheel "plumb the depths of incompetence" is always a fun game
