WWW III in January? Did I miss it?
- xoxoy 6y ago
  Yes. With Iran.

    How many people died?
    - xoxoy 6y ago
      Only the people who died in the Ukrainian plane crash that the military accidentally blew up.

        This is one of the crazy things to me. The U.S attacked a foreign country. Then, that country fearing it was being attacked launched a missile at something it thought was a threat. The U.S. caused Iran to take a defensive posture and be fearful of flying objects. How is the U.S. not directly responsible for that downed plane?

        I can play... The U.S. has an adversarial relationship with China... China was afraid of being embarrassed because of the US... How is the US not directly responsible for COVID?

        That's the thread of a great question we should be asking ourselves. "How has the behavior of the U.S. effected the global response to COVID?" I feel like your question only furthers my point that aggressive and confrontational foreign policy has a multitude of unintended consequences.

        My point is, there's a limit blame-shifting. Eventually the blame falls on those acting, not on those that influenced them or their ancestors. Eventually you'd get to something like, given the first man was obviously doing something bad for the first woman, how can it not be the woman-kind's fault?

The idea that Rogan hadn’t long sold out is a bit of a stretch.

  To who? Butcherbox? Traeger Grills? The motherfucking Cash app building wells for the pgymies in the congo? Joe's always been sponsored by small companies who make things he likes. He even still talks about Bellator and OneFC fights and boxing despite working for the UFC. He about as independent as he can be. I doubt Spotify have any creative input to the show. So how has Joe sold out before, or now?
