Word. Everyone here is jelly that they don't have an SO that can plug a margarita into their butt.

People are not dogs. Punishment/reward conditioning leads to the greedy short term thinking that put the US (and arguably the world) in the situation it is right now. Also, who gets to decide what must be punished and what must be rewarded? The state? God?

You said yourself man: I'm arguing for treating everyone equally. If you don't like that, sure bro, you do you. I'm sure you'll find a million ways to justify treating people differently, just like those you hate so much do.

I don't get what argument you're making. Because our enemy would behead us, let's behead them first? If that sounds better to you than Trump's "retribution", sure. But to me it's retribution with extra steps, not justice.

Bro thinks Olympians are the top 10%. Lol. You're thinking of your school's basketball team.

Just download SoulSeek and download your songs in .flac. You literally only have to do it once and keep them forever.

He's not. He didn't put a gun to the head of the judges que made the president immune to prosecution. He didn't punt a gun to the politicians denying climate change. He didn't call on Trump's followers to storm the US capitol. All of that was the US and it's people.

Putin was probably just cheerleading his puppets as it all happened. But make no mistake, seeds only grow in fertile soil.

Good job. You know how to read literally.

I agree with you, but in the eyes of many, people like US have made the world worse. I'd also argue that we all make the world worse one way or another, even if it's just via consumption under capitalism. This is why judgement can not be subjective or street-justice. It has to fall within the social contract, even when talking about someone that has broken it. If we are truly equal, then even the worst have to be treate equally

An easier way to think about it is: If they speak Spanish they are Hispanic. If they are geographically from Latin America, they are Latino. For most people you could use them both interchangeably, except in a few cases like Brazil.
