Given the context, I choose to believe smth means "shaking my tiny head".

Having read some modern libertarian military porn, that's exactly the part they leave out.

Ah, so you're edit in the original post was justified because they started it. Is that how morality works? They started the mud slinging, so it's okay now?

I did read your posts, and commented on others, and I agree with your stance. I'm pretty sure JFK did, to. It's basically the corollary of, "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution impossible." So what peaceful solution do you propose to solve the healthcare problem in America given the state of your government for the last number of decades, and is it really a peaceful revolution if thousands are administratively killed in the process? And is that better or worse than killing a few people in the streets who have amassed obscene levels of wealth by promoting those deaths to make that happen a little faster, whether that be due to legislation or sudden policy reversals due to newfound altruism?

There are no easy answers in morality. This is why philosophers have written so many books about it.

You keep acting like I said the majority think something so they must be right. Yes, I think if you were living in those examples that you should take a good look at why you believe differently than the majority and be able to defend it. No, I don't think, even in those situations, spouting off on people disagreeing with you without giving an adequate defense of your position and merely that they're hating because of your differing position is useful and is going to convince someone of your stance.

And I didn't say it did. But when a bunch of people say you're doing something shitty, it isn't a bad idea to take a few moments and ask, "Am I?" And coming back at them for saying it is never a good look, even if you're right.

How is pointing out that Healthcare United had the highest claim rejection rate in America, known for its profit-based healthcare system, political assassination? "They're making me look bad by pointing out the things I say, do, and believe!"

No. I downvoted because I believe you're wrong. I said if you get piles of downvotes, maybe you should engage in some self-reflection, because maybe you're wrong. I never said you're wrong, and this is one of those areas that isn't black and white, so assigning right and wrong is only reasonable to leave as a personal choice. That said, I also think it's very wrong to put forward your opinion and then be offended when others do the same, whether it be through comments or up/downvotes.

I rarely downvote, and even more rarely downvote and comment, but I can assure you that downvote was wholly organic. Perhaps if you feel like you're brigade all the time, you should engage in some self-reflection.

Likewise, but I still go to reddit via searches if the other results aren't helping me out. At this point it's more an act of desperation than desire, though.

I don't have a problem with them changing the theme. I have a huge problem with them not allowing me to change it back, especially when it serves no practical purpose (other than, "sign up for our Windows certification!"). Now, I have no right to require them to do it, but it doesn't mean it isn't a shitty move on their part, and don't pretend it isn't.

Even solids are mostly nothing. This is why neutron stars are so dense - there is a lot less nothing between the neutrons, largely due to gravity.

Here's another way to think about it. A gas is like a bunch of balls bouncing around a room, hitting the walls and occasionally each other. A solid is like a ball pit, but the balls are vibrating. There is still a lot of bouncing, but most of themstay together.

While you're aren't wrong, what do you think we can do militarily to stop the nation with the largest nation in the world, 10 times the population, and one of the largest economies in the world? I don't think we can get out of this by spending more on our military. Spending more on our militias, and include unconventional warfare training? Well, I don't think that would stop the invasion, but it would make the occupation a nightmare.
