Not just Operation Overlord (which I’m betting this jamoke doesn’t even know), but all kinds of military operations were postponed due to weather and other reasons. It’s how strategy works. I assume the extent of guy’s military expertise stops at shouting racist slurs while playing COD, and I even say this as a not-actually-an-expert type of person.

Plus, if we look at times when they didn't cancel when they should have, we get things like Challenger exploding on live TV.
Word, good example. That one traumatized me, I was four years old when I saw it go down, and had a terrible fear of countdown timers (e.g., microwave oven timer) for quite a while after that.
This feels like a joke that anticipates the community notes as a punchline. I don't frequent Twitter, but I have to imagine this is a burgeoning genre of comedy tweet
I haven't seen it used that way yet, but seems like a clever meta. Honestly community notes might be the only good thing on the entire platform. My favorite is when there are community notes on ads.
Oh I didn't expect that to be a thing on ads. It's clear nobody is in control at Twitter, any sane social platform would have killed that on ads.
I don't know who this is, but since he never studied war history or paid attention in school I know he's probably a right wing grifter piece of shit
This makes me think it might've been a satirical comment... but it's impossible to know...
this is the main reason I've been slowly removing sarcasm from my personality. it's not fun when so many people are (understandably) not in on the joke, or worse when you realize someone you were joking with was actually being completely serious. I'm just tired man, feels like half the worlds gone insane
I mean tbf, he did say 'cancelled,' not delayed.
There was a window of opportunity where the tides were low and the weather was right. It's completely possible that if those two things didn't come together, it just couldn't happen. The English Channel has some nasty weather, too.
For those wondering, they needed the tides to be low in order to avoid beach defenses.
