    Trump Embraces Military Industrial Complex Conspiracy Theory

    Democrats might not but leftys do.

    Badmouthing our country

    This is only true if you think there is some kind of equal parts on each side. Both sides are not equally viable or respectable. If we had flat earther's and NASA scientists in a room we wouldn't give equal credence and respect to the inane opinions of the flat earthers. Similarly the anti-vax...

    Trump Embraces Military Industrial Complex Conspiracy Theory

    They didn't have to control all of them. Just one of them had to have the interest in mind to start it. Once you are entangled it is difficult to leave. And when you do leave it looks like what we saw over the last few weeks. He isn't bucking any kind of system. We still have troops on the...

    "China dreams of emulating the Taliban".

    The US never utilizes its forces for moral reasons. There is always underlying geo-political issues. They don't actively fight China because it is not in their best interest to do so. I'm not saying they shouldn't but they won't. We also weren't in Afghanistan out of altruism.

    Badmouthing our country

    What is the moral respect argument here? If you believe crappy things and use those beliefs to actively harm people then you are a bad person. Ron is a garbage person in addition to those garbage decisions he makes. I don't apologize to that. If someone kicks a puppy we don't go "oh well the act...

    Poll: Lessons in life

    So long as the kid got the bike bake. If the dad took it and the kid lost it forever it would be a little messed up. It seems kind of logical to me. Maybe I'm in the wrong but ultimately no harm was done except the kid got to experience the consequences of his actions in a controlled environment...

    I’m an American and I’m sad.

    Many are heroes. Because they did heroic things to save their comrades. But the war itself isn't a noble one. Now I am not drawing a comparison to the Nazi's and US soldiers by any means but with this logic it can be argued there were many Nazi soldiers who were "heroes". Respect the soldiers...

    Trump Embraces Military Industrial Complex Conspiracy Theory

    Unequivocally yes. The military contractors are lobbyists or have lobbyists. Its a trillion dollar industry that has been growing steadily over the last 20 years and what do we have to even show for it? We haven't achieved much in the middle east and all of our efforts to set Afghanistan up was...

    615 people have been charged in the Capitol insurrection so far

    Good. I hope the charge more and I hope they are charged to the furthest extent of the law.

    Badmouthing our country

    Is it bad to say that someone is doing something objectively bad? I badmouth the Florida governor on the daily. And I'm not saying anything untrue.

    What is your idea of responding to Taliban atrocities?

    I'm not an expert by any means. Shia and Sunni are the two major Islamic religious factions and historically Shia has had more favorable tendencies for women while Sunni tends to be more regressive. Now within the same framework of Islamic extremism we have the Taliban or the Mujahedeen. Though...

    Left wingers in USA seem to be more imperialist fascists than right wingers nowadays

    I agree. However the sentiment might be the only part we agree on.

    I guess you are free to be wrong but we can't make policies and decisions based on superstition.

    What is your idea of responding to Taliban atrocities?

    There are more Muslim women outside of Islamic Fundamentalist states that enjoy the ability to work, be educated, ect. They don't see that as contrast to their beliefs. The *specific* beliefs of the Taliban is harmful to women. While I am not thrilled with the track record of any Abrahamic...

    Ghana: anti-gay bill proposing 10-year prison sentences sparks outrage

    You realize that Christianity isn't part of Ghana's historical culture. Ghana had a rich history of LGBTQ presence until it was criminalized in 1860 after aggressive missionary work that started in 1828. It wasn't like it is now until after the Methodist evangelical push starting in 1910. And...

    Biden Approval Drops to 50%, Lowest for Him to Date

    I would imagine Afghanistan has dipped his popularity. I haven't seen both democrats and republicans so mad about the same thing before. Though to be fair it is just an objective ****up.

    Which is more important?

    There are medical reasons that would put them at high risk if they took the vaccine. But they are rare and should be protected by the people around them getting vaccinated. An example is I know a girl who basically is a bubble girl. She has next to no immune system so even if she got the...

    What is your idea of responding to Taliban atrocities?

    We as a collective of nations should have and should be expediting the process for assylum. Though morally there are some very very bad places in the world. Afghanistan is about to become one of them. But Saudi Arabia has been one for a long long time and the US is a great Advocate of the Saudis.

    I’m an American and I’m sad.

    Henry A. Wallace who was the vice president to FDR his first three terms was a pretty avid social democrat by todays standards. He was the mastermind behind much of the "New Deal" and was literally replaced via subterfuge to put in Truman because the capitalists of the day feared his growing...

    Group wages legal battle to raise Christian flag at Boston City Hall

    Which Christian flag though? The Catholic? The Baptist? The Mormon? Since the majority of our founding fathers were Diests should we make a Diest flag? What about the Jews Quakers and tribal religions of the slaves brought over here? Its not just a blanket "christian culture" even at the very...
