Where were EUs sanctions when the “police” was massacring people all over the Middle East multiple times?

This. It’s quite saddening to realise Western people are as brainwashed by govts and media as much as the Russians are.

I think we should terminate all pregnancies, as the baby could become a racist. We should be able to deprive the KKK community of all future members.

No wonder you mention Plato, as he employs the exact same tortured logic to justify how his brand of authoritarianism is good, as the authoritarians of his choice will enact “good things”. In all the examples, you’re drawing the line on the

Nope, same thing. Both sides want to use government to impose rules on other people's bodies and both are afraid the government will have a free lunch on harvesting data and target individuals through them. If you think one is justifie

That's an extremely contradictory position to hold for the GOP - they're hypocrites. Do you have any other arguments except for whattaboutism though? Telling me that it's ok to be wrong because the GOP does it too is not a ve

It is contradictory and any mental gymnastics to prove otherwise are just moot. You are either against the government/politicians/bureaucrats/democratic majority dictating what you can do with your body and your private healt

"Funny how the same people who were chastising others who didn't want 20 years of pointless war in Afghanistan are now concerned about saving lives by banning abortion." You mean the ultra on the left NY times? I'm sure

"AFAICT, the Germans and the French are more annoyed at bailing out the south than the south is at being bailed out." The Germans and the French were more than happy betting on Italian and Greek bonds which were junk-level and pro

Have you asked anyone not German or French what do they think about living in the EU? I’m sure it’s turned out great for Germany and their lap dog, but let’s ask the Spanish, the Italians and especially the Greek and have this conversation

Exactly. If you want it as a law then work with the appropriate people who operate through the appropriate channels to make it a law. Don't try to circumvent the process by using a different body that is not meant to legislate.

You should read some history books and find out how successful and effective they were in collectivist societies (eg. Nazi Germany, USSR) too.

How would that work? Both of the accused companies' executives and majority of workforce are hard-line Democrats.

That's nonsense. By that logic both sides can claim "They didn't vote FOR us so essentially the voted for the other side", which means that by not voting you voted for both.

I think it’s undeniable now that the US did fund reaserch in the WIV, why do I need further evidence for that when Fauci himself has admitted so? The cover-up was Daszak and co. pre-emptively denouncing lab leak theories as an attack on sci

Are we just going to brush off the US’s involvement in funding WIV? And how even Fauci tried to cover that up? China is not the sole one to blame.

Because if it’s human negligence or malfeasance that created the virus it should be studied on so that we can take better measures in the future. I’d argue that in the latter possibility the people responsible should also be tried for crime

> Obama held a lot of his promises and he cleaned up much of what went wrong in the war on terror. How exactly did he do that? By arming ISIS and destabilizing a few extra countries around the region in the name of "Democracy"?

No idea as well why you’re getting downvoted. I work in a big tech company where some employees’ sole role of existence is pushing diversity & inclusion and preach wokeness, with the blessings of HR of course.

The problem is, even if they were asymptomatic and released from hospital e.g for their broken leg, they would still go in statistics as "This person was hospitalised for COVID-19".

Are you arguing that the people who decide what's misinformation and what isn't are somehow immune to that kind of hack on their reasoning faculties?
