Read official decisions from the defence forces of Finland and/or Sweden. Huge offshore wind projects have been stopped recently.

Or be a reality denying hacker if you prefer.

I can’t make heads or tails of your point.

Are you saying that because Sweden has to worry about Russia invading from the east, the US shouldn’t build any wind farms anywhere? That can’t be right. What do you really mean?

They don't want another surprise attack from the sea like pearl harbor.
You're saying offshore wind farms would prevent the US from detecting an intercontinental attack crossing the ocean?

From where else would an enemy be able to attack? There's two options: ocean or space.
And you think a Pearl Harbor sized attack force could cross oceans undetected and hide behind wind farms?

Please tell me you’re just yanking our chains and don’t really believe that?

We're not the ones arguing the absurd position that the concerns two small countries with extreme closeness to Russia (and a history of prior invasions) more than a thousand miles away, with completely different geography, apply to a vastly different country in a completely different area of the world.
