Proud Fact: 93% of America's Existence it has Packed Heat in One Way or Another Aganist Another!

Just to make sure I asked Google:

Q.) "Hey Google, is it true that America has been "hot" or "packed heat" against another for 93% of it's existence?

A.) The claim that the U.S. has been "hot" or "packed heat" against another nation for 93% of its existence is based on a controversial statistic that is misleading due to a flawed methodology. The number depends heavily on how "war" or "conflict" is defined.
Origin of the statistic
The 93% figure often traces back to analyses that count every military action, no matter the scale, length, or official declaration, as a "war". By this expansive definition, even minor military interventions, punitive expeditions, and undeclared actions are counted.

A Misleading Calculation:

The calculation often includes:

INDIAN CONFLICTS: This protracted and intermittent series of conflicts, stretching across more than a century (approximately 1783–1924), is sometimes counted as one continuous 141-year-long war. This greatly inflates the total years of conflict.

UNDECLARED CONFLICTS: The U.S. has only formally declared war 11 times. The figure includes conflicts authorized by Congress or initiated by the executive branch without a formal declaration, such as the Korean War, Vietnam War, and the post-9/11 War on Terror.

MINOR INTERVENTIONS: The list includes countless smaller military actions throughout the country's history, from confrontations with the Barbary pirates in the early 1800s to interventions in Central America and the Caribbean.

Why This Interpretation is Disputed:

Many historians dispute the 93% figure, arguing that it misrepresents U.S. history by erasing genuine periods of peace. A more moderate view notes that while the U.S. has been a highly militarized nation, especially since World War II, it has also had clear spans of peacetime with no significant combat.
For example, a different analysis using a narrower definition of "war" estimates that the U.S. has been at war less than 23% of the time, even when including minor insurrections and peacekeeping missions. Other calculations show significant gaps between major military actions during the country's early and interwar periods.

So then I asked it again:

Q.)

A.) Based on some analyses, it is true that the U.S. has been involved in military actions for over 90% of its history. However, this widely cited statistic is highly controversial and depends heavily on how "war" or "military action" is defined.
How the statistic is calculated
The 93% statistic often uses a broad interpretation of military conflict to include:

Minor skirmishes, including conflicts with Native Americans.

Covert interventions and clandestine operations directed by the CIA.

Limited military engagements like police actions and troop deployments.

Undeclared wars that Congress never formally authorized, like Vietnam.

By counting all of these events, some researchers count up to 228 years of military involvement out of the U.S.'s 245 years of existence, though exact figures vary.

Key Counterarguments and Context

Military historians and others challenge the accuracy and implications of the 93% figure:

Formal declarations of war: The U.S. Constitution gives only Congress the power to declare war. Formally declared wars like the War of 1812, the Mexican-American War, World War I, and World War II account for a much smaller percentage of the nation's history.

Scale and intent: A limited operation to protect a specific interest is very different from a total war involving a significant mobilization of resources and troops. Counting them equally distorts the historical record.

Precedent among nations: It is also important to note that many other major powers throughout history could also be described as having been in a near-constant state of military involvement under a similar loose definition.

Global power role: Since the end of World War II and the beginning of the Cold War, the U.S. has often assumed the role of "policing" international stability, leading to more frequent, small-scale interventions.

The Bottom Line

While the 93% figure is supported by a broad, year-by-year tally of military actions, it does not represent the severity or scale of those conflicts. For this reason, the claim is highly debatable and should be considered with significant context.

I personally feel as though I am spot on and do NOT feel bad AT ALL for stating that if our government is to be considered any kind of authority, I can tell you it is a DISGRACE! If the Government of America was a parent it would be the ONE of the WORST FUCKING parents EVER in the history of Humanity! Because let us not forget of course our very own mother nation, Britian, she JUST might have America beaten out, idk ya'll, it's too close to call. Britian's been around SOOO MUCH longer and OFFICALLY conquered just SOOOO much more than America has. I mean, it literally takes pride or at least took pride in being the empire the sun never set in...becuase it OWNED SOOOO MUCH of the world, the sun literally never set on the British Empire...I mean come on! In the times of just wooden fucking ships too! I mean talk about motivation! LMAFO! 😉🤣💙 Britian might just be the worst parent nation ever but it's little hell spawn isn't much better either. Let us also not forget the glorious French Empire, the glorious Spanish Empire, Dutch Empire, Portuguese Empire, the Russian Empire, the FUCKING NAZI empire, the ancient ROMAN Empire, the ancient Greek Empire, the ancient Chinese Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and sooooo MANY MORE empires in history, who could also be considered "awful parent nations" too. Did you happen to notice the small continent of EUROPE that MOST of those aforementioned empires call home? Strange isn't it? And look at how the Nordic/Scandinavian countries live...like MOTHAFUCKING KINGS and QUEENS while the rest of us out here in the world are struggling to make ends meet. Something stinks here, something FOUL is amongst our midst my fellow Human. Don't you think?

Think about it real quick, in a way ya'll, your country's government is supposed to be a protector, defender and make sure that we as citizens have a country that's suitable for us to LIVE, WORK and FLOURISH in! Just like a parent is supposed to make sure the child has a safe and nuturing place to call home and grow up in! Well, our parent, our UNCLE SAM is an soulless, apathetic nightmare of a disaster. They give us NOTHING and their rich/powerful friends EVERYTHING! WE make this country RUN, it is WE THE PEOPLE who through our BLOOD, SWEAT and TEARS EVERYDAY make this country RUN! NOT THEM, US!

America Much? :

Based on psychological research and the diagnostic criteria used by mental health professionals, a person who exhibits endless, violent behavior would most likely be evaluated for Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD), psychopathy, or Conduct Disorder, depending on their age. It is important to note that these are complex conditions and a formal diagnosis can only be made by a qualified mental health professional.
Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD)
ASPD is a clinical diagnosis recognized by the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) and describes a pervasive pattern of disregard for and violation of the rights of others.
Violent behavior in ASPD
While not all people with ASPD are violent, aggression and violence are common features. This is especially true for those with co-occurring disorders like substance use disorder. ASPD-related violence can be impulsive and reactive but can also be predatory and premeditated in nature, particularly in individuals who score high on psychopathic traits.
Symptoms often associated with ASPD include:
Aggression, hostility, or violence toward others
Manipulating or deceiving others for personal gain
A persistent pattern of irresponsibility and failure to conform to social norms
Lack of empathy and no remorse for harming others
Psychopathy
Psychopathy is a related, though distinct, clinical construct with a strong link to violent and criminal behavior. While not an official diagnosis in the DSM-5, psychopathy is widely used in forensic and clinical settings and is considered by some to be a more severe form of ASPD.
Differences from ASPD
Psychopathy emphasizes specific personality traits, such as superficial charm, grandiosity, and profound emotional deficits like a lack of guilt, empathy, and fear. Psychopaths are known for more calculating and cold-blooded or "instrumental" violence, though they can also exhibit impulsive and reactive aggression.
Conduct Disorder (CD)
Conduct Disorder is the diagnostic precursor to ASPD, diagnosed in children and adolescents who repeatedly violate the basic rights of others or major age-appropriate social norms.
Links to future violence
Childhood-onset: When CD symptoms appear before age 10, it is strongly predictive of a more persistent and severe pattern of violence that can continue into adulthood as ASPD.
Violent symptoms: The diagnosis includes a pattern of aggression toward people or animals, destruction of property, deceit, and serious rule-breaking.
Callous-unemotional (CU) traits: A subtype of CD with "Limited Prosocial Emotions" (also known as callous-unemotional traits) is a significant predictor of future psychopathy.
Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED)
IED is an impulse-control disorder defined by recurrent episodes of verbal and physical aggression that are grossly out of proportion to any provocation. While IED can involve frequent violence, it differs from ASPD and psychopathy in several ways:
Regret is common: Episodes are often followed by a sense of genuine regret or remorse, which is typically absent in ASPD and psychopathy.
Impulsive violence: The violence is almost always reactive and impulsive, not premeditated.
Diagnostic exclusion: A diagnosis of IED is not given if the aggressive outbursts are better explained by another mental disorder like ASPD.
