Rightfully so in my opinion. To me, refusing to interfere in such a manner is good conduct, and defending their rights even better. Censure and object...

If meanings were in the words we’d understand a foreign language as soon as we heard it. Meaning is generated within. This is why I believe that any p...

My mistake. Sorry my eyes gloss over after about a few of your sentences. I didn’t realize you were actively excluding one of the countries under disc...

Actually it is true because a Cold War is a war without direct military action by definition. I wasn’t aware of Soviet soldiers in the Vietnam, and I ...
November 14, 2020 at 22:30
If that’s true I guess the Cold War ended during the 50’s. So did the North-Soth Korean conflict, apparently. No peaceful breakthroughs are possible w...
November 14, 2020 at 22:05
Soviet Russia never had any direct battles with the US in the Cold War, therefor the end of those tensions wasn’t much of a breakthrough, because it w...

The Arab-Isreali conflict, the Khartoum resolution, and the years of “meaningful” conflict between these countries is well known, despite your hand wa...

But “normalization” and the brokering of diplomatic relations between Israel and some Arab states is a huge accomplishment. I remember you telling me ...

In a sense the concept of rights is about behavior. Your right to free and independent thought is my duty not to suppress or punish you for it. Your r...

As an aside, here are some great arguments against pacifism written during times when such an ideology would have been disastrous. Orwell wrote a grea...

I believe Biden will be just a figurehead for the same technocratic foreign policy we’ve seen before, where the government’s actions will be set in mo...

A viable candidate requires a movement, or a wealthy cabal of political, celebrity, establishment and media complicity in order to compete. Not many p...

That’s not the case because the economy was doing great before it was subverted by worldwide lockdowns. The US is brokering peace in the Middle East. ...

The idea that people should expect of their head of state what they do of their spiritual leaders is a silly one. The same goes for the feeble daddy-f...

Why does that seem odd? I have no ability to predict future events, so why would you want to hear me try?
November 07, 2020 at 21:47
Yes, the style is and has been ruinous until now. Biden can lament corruption in Ukraine and meddle in their elections while his son rakes in millions...
November 07, 2020 at 21:31
You lament the wealthy out of one side of the mouth then cheer as you elect the wall-street and corporate candidate. Enjoy four years of Biden.
November 07, 2020 at 20:27
I fear more of the same, specifically the public relations politics, where an administration can get away with anything so long as it utters the fashi...
November 07, 2020 at 20:25
Sure. But I wager even you will be longing for a Trump presidency before long. The hopey-changey rhetoric and lullabies may have worked before, but wi...

Don’t give up so easily, ssu. There are still 75 days left of the best American presidency to have graced this earth.

Jyna called and the CCP are happy you devoured their propaganda platter.
November 07, 2020 at 17:51
I resigned to a Biden win long ago. But projections are just projections. There will still be recounts and litigation, not to mention another two mont...
November 07, 2020 at 17:48
I’m quite good, actually. Trump can run again.
November 07, 2020 at 17:44
Yes, even you could own your own business, your own corporation, and provide meaningful employment to thousands. You could pay livable wages to the po...

Wall Street, CIA, Big Tech, military industrial complex, and Davos appreciate your vote.
November 07, 2020 at 17:31
What an election! It exceeded my expectations. The censorship, the suppression polls, the propaganda, the deceit, the threats and violence—it may have...
November 07, 2020 at 17:08
I think the divide of power between wealthy and poor, at least in the West, is largely overstated. Wealth alone cannot force a poor man to do anything...

I never said it was a fact. The police say it appears the Biden vehicle may be at fault. Biden goons claim the Trump supporting vehicle was trying to ...

It’s too early to tell who is going to win, I think. Though many polls show a resounding win for Biden, some say the exact opposite. Sheer enthusiasm ...

Oh you have a president and prime minister. Thanks for the explainer. Yes, I am a dual citizen, thanks to official multiculturalism. I no longer vote ...

Are you able to vote for your leader? Here in Canada the party leader is nominated by the party and thus Canadians are unable to vote for the prime mi...

Anti-Trumpists upset with a little protest. That’s rich. If only they hadn’t harassed every trump rally and appearance, their whines wouldn’t sound so...
November 01, 2020 at 16:35
They aren’t pro-Biden; they are anti-Trump. Anti-Trumpism forces them to toss their principles to the wind. Out of one side of their mouth they will l...

Yes, I’ve heard it all before. I guess we’ll wait for that to come out. Any time now.

Hunter’s father is running for president, and he’s implicated in his son’s dealing. Cry about it.

Your interlocutor’s argument is a homunculus argument because it raises the question as to exactly what is sensing “perception” or “experience” (or wh...

Right, all those alcohol-swigging, 15-year-old journalists. Only a pervert would pretend such a person was 15.

A global pandemic is worse than Benghazi? Man, I never would have figured that out.

Comparing Benghazi and coronavirus? No strand of chewing gum could connect the two.
