People will keep having kids even if most of them will die

“even if”? Biologically, knowing that most of your offspring are going to die is a reason to have as many kids as possible.

How did you manage to mix Putin into this one?

These are not good boys

You are being excommunicated for resisting excommunication!

That’s the beauty of religion - if our gods and prophets did not materialize to contradict what we are saying in their name, that means they approve.

Counterargument: Luke Skywalker.

I don’t think you quite grasp the meaning of the word “focus”…

I believe that moral sacrifices performed to protect others deserve respect just like physical ones. A necessary evil may still be evil - but it’s also still necessary, which means that someone have to do it to prevent much greater evil. If you happen to benefit from the prevention of that greater evil, it is not right for you to condemn those who have dirtied their hands and soiled their souls to bring out that outcome.

I’m not saying it should be glorified, of course - that would just encourage the ones who actually enjoy that greater evil while making the ones who feel conflicted and guilty about having to do it feel even worse. But you should not criticize them either. Save that for the leaders who actually had more options, maybe even some non-evil ones.

Small comfort: they still can’t physically force you like they can with biometrics.

He’s the punishment America deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

Challenge accepted

It’s the sentiment that counts.

What’s “heterolingual”? You can only talk to people who speak a different language than the one you use?

You wouldn’t download a book?

I’ll never get the American mindset which considers “used the n-word 200 times” the main offense, the one worthy to be in the headline, while “struck her numerous times and kicked her in the stomach” is just a minor detail that happens to be mentioned somewhere in the article as an afterthought.

The unwashed masses dare to think that we are the elites? Clearly a result of their inadequate education…

Thing about the electoral collage is that it doesn’t matter what the large majority wants.

Should Greece really be on that list? The only criterion where it’s not grayed out is “Awarded Parts of China to Japan”, which actually means “signed the Treaty of Versailles after WWI”. And unlike many of the other countries that signed it, Greece did not get anything to itself from it.

Not me. I make the effort to get out of bad, go to the couch, sit on it, and dissociate there instead.
