Sure. Mass movement, politicians, pen, paper, law

Leave one of those out and it probably won't work

Well, the US only enacted it in 1937

So I only have basically all of Europe off the top of my head

And do you think it was the bombers that wrote this into law, or elected politicians?

edit: and why did other countries manage to get it into law a lot faster than the US?

I'm not talking about becoming a democracy, I'm talking about *improving *and modernizing their democracies. As well as, well, voting for and enacting all the policy examples you listed

Most other countries got there by voting people into power that wrote and voted these principles into law. Voted for people that improved their democratic processes.

If you think it doesn't matter that you voted for the most capitalist candidate as long as you do a little Robin Hood shit on the side, you've seen too many movies and not enough history imo

Me and a few others here are responding to people claiming that this attack "murdered an insane number of civilians", "killed a majority of civilians", "was like an anthrax attack" and so on.

I'm showing publicly available information and how that leads to me to conclude that the above statements go against all logic.

Now, if your final argument is that one can't really comment on any news from the Middle East because 'we can't know' then yeah, I guess I don't have any more rebuttal for that

Should they have somehow forced them to stay while they were bombing Hezbollah positions? How?

I understand why someone who did not go to college would not necessarily understand how tariffs will raise prices or how trickle down economics has never had empirical success

And do you think it's a good thing that this lack of understanding motivates them to go 'pull that lever', cancelling out your own vote?

They haven’t [x, y, z, ...]

And do you feel like any of those things you want are more likely to happen with more people voting for the GOP? Is the fastest way to get there to vote for politicians that viciously oppose these measures? Do you think other countries magically got these things passed by voting against them?
