I'm just going to ignore you until you stop arguing against Strawman Capps. I'm not going to confess to something I never did, I will not indulge your delusions.

I am arguing against your own posts.

Do you want me to argue with the capps who realized he was full of shit before and is now pretending like he believed in science this whole time or do you want me to go back to quoting your asinine posts from when you argued it's not possible?

[StCapps]

The upper limit of fatalities the National Academy of Science estimated I think was around 90% of the population. That was under the assumption that we would receive no assistance from foreign powers. That's a reasonable figure given the assumption, but the assumption seems rather unlikely. It would require EMP attacks on the rest of the developed world to realize those fatalities since the rest of the world could otherwise airdrop rice and medical supplies into CONUS.

That is what I was arguing against. Those projections are ridiculous, ZOMG 90% lethality, SIFCLIF's the lot of them.

You're just an idiot and thought I was saying EMPs are a myth, because you're on crack or something. It's hard to truly put into words just how much of a retard you've been these last few pages, anything I could say would fail to do it justice. It's there for all to read, like you said, but they won't side with you on this, they will see you embarrassing yourself.

In the meantime; fun fact, in order to defend the CONUS from a massively destructive EMP effect, the Americans would have to defend Canada most of all, because for maximum effect on the CONUS, you detonate the EMP somewhere between Yellowknife NWT and Iqaluit Nunavut , lulz.

Canada not being a part of NMD is actually a serious problem for EMP defense, they need BMD right across the north for it to be comprehensive.

Nah. Let the Canucks freeze.

Irony of ironies would be that the EMP effect would be worse for the CONUS if detonated over Canada than it would be for Canada, and bear in mind, the whole "90% lethality" metric is based on you Americans turning on each other and inciting Cormac McCarthy's The Road upon one another, freezing is not the threat, Americans are, the whole scenario is based on American on American violence in the wake of a societal breakdown.

NO the fuck you were not. You were arguing against the very idea that a fusion bomb can be designed to maximize gamma ray bursts instead of a nuclear blast and that the gamma ray bursts in the upper atmosphere would generate a huge electromagnetic field as the gamma rays bounced electrons out of the molecules in the air. If not that, then you were arguing against the idea that a magnetic field applied to a conductor creates a current. Either way, it was retarded as fuck. This is obviously quite possible. We already know the Russians built such a device. So probably did the United States. It looks like the North Koreans got the Russian design. Surprise surprise.

[Smitty-48]

The best part is, due to the shape of the earth's magnetic field, a detonation over northern Canada puts us in the sweet spot, it rains down on the CONUS following the field towards the equator, and the rest gets dumped into the arctic circle as Northern Lights, and most of Canada escapes unscathed, from a EMP detonating right above us, lulz.

You are the only person who thinks that I said that, it's there for all to read, but I think you'll be surprised to see that no one else will have your reading comprehension issues.

[Speaker to Animals]

I just quoted you saying it!

[StCapps]

I just quoted you saying it!

No you didn't. Whatever lets you sleep at night, keep on embarrassing yourself for all I care.

[Speaker to Animals]

OMFG

You really are incapable of admitting you are wrong. The only reason I bullied you like this was because of how insulting you were towards other posters while posting such ignorant remarks.

Classic case of the SIFCLF, austistic screeching and nonsensical fallacy spewing, page after page after page, derails the conversation to throw an infantile tantrum, discussion goes nowhere, moving on; who knew?

This is the metaphor for America writ large right now, dueling SIFCLF's autistic screeching at each other and throwing tantrums, holding the rest of the republic hostage in the process.
