It’s just some bullshit before an election so Biden can say he’s done something about the gun violence pandemic

Yeah, I'm noticing a lot of posturing from the democrats this year.

The US has been caught totally defenseless.

To be fair, this isn't strictly a Russia vs. US (or china) thing.

Everyone with power has a vested interest in expanding that power through any means necessary. It just so happens that it's very effective to convince useful idiots on the internet to do one's bidding.

"Influencers" are the same way.

I don't hope Ukraine will lose, but it's clear that's probably what's going to happen.

Of course it is not acceptable to imprison potentially innocent people for life.

But that's what happens when we imprison people for life. Inevitably, someone innocent is going to end up there. Just like with the death penalty, right?

You're typing an essay because you don't realize how you've succumbed to doublethink.

Yeah. Because Arab nations don't have the resources as Western ones, they typically have to resort to terrorism to fight back.

This is why the "war on terror" is such a big deal. It means that any poor nation who tries to fight a wealthy one is immediately in the wrong.

Because either way an innocent person is losing their life because of the state.

I just wanted you to admit that it's acceptable to imprison potentially innocent people for life but it's not okay to execute them, which you did.

Of course I do. The end result is still the same for those who die in prison.

So? They still lose their lives.

Executing people who screw over investors?
