Unrepentant Techno-Hermit, forever trying to make less do more.
Unconscionable. What Hamas did was inexcusable, but Hamas doesn’t treat Palestinians any better than they do Jews as a matter of public record. I get that Hamas have exploited just about any effort to help the average Palestinian ever attempted, but that should not be an argument against helping what amounts to more victims of Hamas.
You too, buddy. Maybe some day we’ll have a chance to drink an excellent Irish stout (which is obviously ‘all of them’, though my personal preference is Murphy’s) together. That’d be lovely, and not just because of the stout.
No worries, I wouldn’t dream of holding it against you; if anything, you have my respect for owning up to making a simple mistake, which happens to everybody sooner or later - me very much included. Kudos!
This might surprise you, but that didn’t help clearing up anything. If you have an argument to make, make an argument. That way I can either agree with you or retort.
No, I don’t consider listing countries or regions an argument. Denmark, Belgium, French Polynesia. Now you might wonder where I’m going with that, but I’m not going to tell you. I’ll just expect you to read my mind. That’s communication, you see.
I’m sorry, but I have literally no idea what you’re talking about. Who’s robbing what land? Are we talking about Ukraine or Ireland?
Because I’m here talking about Ukraine and the UK.
Sure, but to my mind the question is: How does robber #2 pointing out that robber #1 is himself a robber excuse the actions of robber #2?
Ah yes. Whataboutism. Suppose a robber acts in defense of a person about to be robbed. That may or may not make them a hypocrite, but it certainly doesn’t make them wrong.
Or would you say it would somehow be more right for the robber to stand back and allow the robbery “because they’re in no position to point fingers”?
…Yeah, I didn’t think so either.
Could somebody explain to me precisely how either of those things have anything to do with “DEI”? Or what Nazism and Islamism have to do with Marxism for that matter?
Sure, let’s erode the idea that words have actual meaning some more. After all, there’s no need to change laws if we can just change the definition of the things they cover instead.
Maybe the meaning of ‘taxation’ should be changed to ‘racket’ while we’re at it.
Something here is “void and vacant” to be sure, but it isn’t Biden’s pardons.
I suppose doubling down on being an utter useless fool is still easier on the ego than owning up to having negligently murdered your own daughter.
So he’s a coward too. Lovely.
A lot of things could happen. Maybe Unicorns will be discovered in the wild tomorrow, which would be about as likely as this happening.
Respect the judiciary or leave the country.
It must be nice to be amoral, unburdened by principles, unshackled by intellectual honesty and unhampered by hypocrisy: They can shamelessly do anything and still sleep like a baby when they’re done.
“Hey I can reduce the amount of stress I feel by unilaterally make other people feel x10 as much, but that sounds like a their kind of problem. Pft. Taking responsibility for my own life? What am I, some sort of adult?”
It’s the core of the criminal mind-set: That somebody else should non-consensually pay the price for the criminal’s actions.
It wouldn’t stop Americans either I daresay; it would “just” criminalize expressing it.
“The 1st amendment? Wazzat? Does it make me richer?” – US Republicans, probably.
Yup, that sounds like Trump’s spiritual advisor, all right. On the other hand, he’s not looking to render the poor down for biofuel production unlike Thiel’s Guru Yarwin, so there’s that I guess.
Meanwhile, the FBI apparently has plenty of resources to run around persecuting people not for their actions, but for their environmental views. Forget neo-nazis and traitors, who clearly only wants what’s best for their country - the lovable little scamps. /s
Yeah, that’s a fair point. Substitute with ‘citizens of Israel’ then.
