That is a specious comparison and you know it.

Free navigation of the seas is literally the reason for the founding of the Marine Corps and US Navy.

The seas do not “belong” to us, nor do they belong to Iran. Why would a Chinese tanker pay the US to navigate this area? And why wouldn’t the Chinese do the same for us passing through the Taiwan Strait?

There are a lot of people who support every scheme this President comes up with. This one is sketchy and dangerous at best.

I was obviously responding to another Thread. My mistake.

Is it?

Shooting up a Data Center to get back at AI is exactly like the people throwing pieces of wood into the water powered/steam powered looms. Or insisting that Radio dramas would still be relevant in the days of TV. Or that fax machines and email would never replace couriers and regular mail (a personal favorite of mine.)

AI is here. It’s not just coming. It might not be something YOU use in your daily life, but it is being used to deliver products and services to you today…and it will only becomes more significant over the next couple of years.

Shooting data centers in Ohio is not going to stop that.
