That seems more like your opinion than fact.              Are you smarter than a fifth generation AI bot? Doubtful.              Answer:       If a politician tells a member of the military to defy the president's orders,       it can be considered several things, depending on the context and the specific       circumstances. Here are a few possibilities:              SEDITION: SEDITION is the act of inciting or encouraging rebellion or       resistance against a government, or urging citizens to disobey the law.              If a politician is telling members of the military to defy the president's       orders, IT CAN BE SEEN AS AN ACT OF SEDITION, as it could be interpreted as an       attempt to undermine the authority of the president and the chain of command.              Military disobedience: Military disobedience is the act of refusing to follow       orders or disobeying a superior officer. If a politician is telling members of       the military to defy the president's orders, it could be seen as encouraging       military disobedience.              Interference with military operations: Interference with military operations       is a serious offense that can compromise national security and undermine the       effectiveness of the military. If a politician is telling members of the       military to defy the president's orders, it could be seen as interference with       military operations.              TREASON: TREASON is the act of betraying one's country or sovereign, often by       aiding or abetting an enemy or attempting to overthrow the government. In       extreme cases, if a politician's actions are seen as an attempt to undermine       the authority of the president and the government, IT COULD BE CONSIDERED       TREASONOUS.              In the United States, there are several laws and regulations that govern the       behavior of military personnel and civilians in relation to the chain of       command and the president's authority. These include:              The Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ): The UCMJ is a set of laws that       govern the behavior of military personnel and provide for the prosecution of       military personnel who commit offenses.              The Insurrection Act: The Insurrection Act is a federal law that prohibits       inciting or engaging in rebellion or insurrection against the United States.              The Logan Act: The Logan Act is a federal law that prohibits private citizens       from engaging in diplomatic relations with foreign governments in a way that       undermines the authority of the president.              Ultimately, the specific charges and consequences would depend on the facts of       the situation and the applicable laws and regulations.              =============================================================================              "Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition              All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.              "Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has       been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of Donald Trump, to the       point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."              Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the       Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three distinct phases or       stages:              "In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The       president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, as if 140 characters were       all it took to change the world."              "The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's       vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely of       hyperbole."              "As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from       reality."              The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk       opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump does. If Trump       announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would       suggest he was up to something nefarious, according to the logic of TDS.       There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be       received positively by TDSers.              The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early       2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch line for late-       night comics and nothing more.              Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first       coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer back in 2003.       The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in       otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay -       the very existence of George W. Bush."              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
