I just want to remind everyone that those who call for war have never experienced it, and the closer you experience it, the less you want it.
Ladies: warlords will rape, abuse, and kill you. They know nothing but brutality and care nothing about your well-being.
God, I hope I am presented with a national historic news very very soon.
I’ve probably got twice the warlord potential he has. Which is to say, I have really shit warlord potential.
I fucking love Robert Evans. BTB has consumed dozens of hours of my time.
Sidenote, of course this chode doesn’t acknowledge that he and his peers are unbelievably culpable in the downfall of society and probably the planet.
So is he just coming out and saying he’s driving the country into the ground? Is that the point of this? How does this idiot still have any support?
His supporters all think they have warlord potential
Holy hell Elon has a galactically discrepant self-image.
Who is this guy to have known several warlords? My guess is he’s either a glowie or a journalist.
Edit: Survey says journalist! Thank you to everyone who answered.
To this guy’s point, yeah, it’s hilarious that Elon fancies himself a survivor.
Robert Evans is a bisexual Texas guy who decided he was going to report on war, so talked his way onto a military plane with other reporters as a stringer when Beirut was a place for barracks bombing. An experienced combat photographer took him under his wing and kept him alive. Evans has walked on concrete smelling the crushed dead from the collapsed structures. I know all this from memory (correct me if I messed anything up) because I researched his background a bit, because his “It Could Happen Here” podcast - about how a US civil war would go down - is very articulate and savvy, and I was curious how he gained that insight.
The only thing more articulate and savvy could possibly be the products and services that support his program. If you lurk on Lemmy, Robert, glad you’re here. Always wished I could hear a conversation between you and Robert Baer for a few hours… partially because I would expect only the best alcohol and other substances to be served in that room.
This guy is Robert Evans, world famous podcaster of Behind The Bastards fame.
honestly he is awesome
Evans is the kind of guy to book his own ticket to a war zone and hope he gets paid for his reporting afterward. I have no idea if he’s ever done that, but he has that vibe. As others said, I think he’s a “journalist”, in a positive way.
edit: he did a whole series about Syria, way way before recent developments. “The Women’s War”. and Jake Hanrahan. I remember they paid a driver who kept giving them terrible cigarettes.
He’s literally done that before and been shot at by Isis snipers as part of it.
Robert Evans does Behind the Bastards podcast, and has also reported on conflicts in Iraq, Ukraine, and Rojava, amongst lots of other things.

He might just live in or near a very particular region of Africa or perhaps the middle eastern mountains.
Hes a conflict journalist with years of experience in the field
The more chilling thing to me being that he is causing, wants, and/or expects this as someone “in power”, for wont of a better term. Is this a desire (definitely) or coming to terms with things already set in motion? I hope it’s just a shitpost, but who knows at this point?
It’s a nazi eugenics dream to wipe the country off of undesirables and initiate your plan of gender affirming individuals as they pop out of tubes. A good reminder thwt a journalist interviewed a billionaire who was showcasing their mega bunker in case everything goes to shit. What bothered the billionaire was how is he able to control his security when the natural order is upside down?
Journalist suggested empathy, to understand and care about your security detail. Billionaire disregarded that and suggested to himself shock collars would be more ideal than empathy.
