This very much seems like a misreading/unclear writing. The writer seems to agree with you. The implied wording I read: "But it's hard to understand [the argument that opponents to universal care make, because their assertion is implausible:] how just every.."

Unless I'm misreading and you're arguing that the US can't afford universal care?

B-but isn't rule #1 of dunk_tank to link the content? I was just consolidating, dangit.

Wow, and the Daily Heil, noted genocide-supporter and banned wikipedia source for its insane unreliability is a measly 10% more right-wing than Trueanon, and 20% more reliable!

The dunk tank has some sort of place, maybe, but recent Hexbear rules is not to dunk_tank on other instances. I think that's a fair compromise.

You'll need that agility to catch all the gross wet rags you're dropping.

spoilerAm I struggling right?

The struggle session I'm always ready for: When are reactionaries deserving of death rather than a chance at rehabilitation?

ISO 8601 or nukes

Honestly, for what little it may be worth, I appreciate your view here. I think if we had this kind of attitude in moderating such behaviour, it alone would go a long way to making for friendlier and more constructive discussions for all.

I couldn't have said this better myself. All I have to add is shaun_vids' seriously detailed (and long) compilation of all the information we have regarding the decision of of dropping the nukes. The conclusion is that the Japanese were already trying to establish surrender negotiations but were being entirely ignored, the US didn't care and instead dropped both bombs despite being well aware the war was already over. They mainly just wanted to be seen as the 'sole victors'.

Over 200,000 civilians murdered solely for capitalist posturing.

I'm genuinely curious as to why you think this is trolling? A serious point is being made.

She concisely made a very important point that is absolutely the central underpinning of class relations: "How do rich people get their money?". And to continue the constructive discussion, the original poster only need answer the question "how did they get that money". Finding the answer to that question alone is justification for class war. She also put in some cute goose emojis which are just cool.

I'm not sure if you genuinely didn't realise, but they already said they were Irish, so they clearly mean the United Kingdom. Which has indeed deliberately inflicted mass starvation and violent oppression on the people of Ireland for centuries, with the implied (and sometimes explicit) goal of killing non-royalists.
