You are braindead

I don’t disagree, posts like this always seem to forget that the British Empire sought control over India for spice.

I just disagreed that food in the U.S. was somehow shit.

So your logic is that the U.S. is equally as bad as Russia because they hire mercenaries, so bums working on AC units back home share the same blame as hired guns and professional soldiers.

What a ridiculous group of people.

I’m not the one trying to suggest bums working on AC units in the states shoulder the same responsibility as hired guns and professional soldiers.

There is simply no fucking way you’re trying to say a grunt has as much responsibility as the dictator. I simply cannot entertain this lmao

Kuru happens when you eat brains, just don’t eat brains and you’ll be ok.

I wouldn’t expect more value from their physical labor.

Meanwhile my girlfriend and I just got done watching a 2 hour video on Japans creepiest educational video, subject of which is the Heian era of Japan. Her algorithm pulls are goated.

I bet you would not consider them as innocent as your friend.

Why would you assume this?

Beyond which, to hate the U.S. military for their crimes one must hate the Russian military for theirs — lest they make themselves out to be a hypocrite. I don’t care if you want to call out the U.S. military, do not act like the Russians are guiltless or somehow deserving of compassion. I will feel no more compassion for them than I will U.S. soldiers in the event of an invasion of Canada or Greenland.

You mean my friend who was only ever in stationed in Texas?

Yeah you sure are good at determining my ‘stupid games’, you really got me there buddy. At least I know what to tag you.

Oh rape isn’t the only problem I have with the Russia military, but I’m not about to provide an essay for you.

I think Trump’s death has ‘event of the century’ locked in for me — but hey, at least there’s proof she’s a fucking ghoul.

Uh, your average breakfast in the U.S. was basically a shitload of protein and potatoes in the 19th century. Idk about you but I definitely like pork, oatmeal, fried potatoes, eggs — with a couple pieces of toast that’s all I need in current year.

My friend went into the military and, as he puts it, ‘swept sand in a sandstorm’ for most of his time there. His experience seemed to be mostly boredom. He wore a beard to hid his nega-chin and ended up working on AC units for the most part.

Let’s see, last time I checked Russia was releasing violent criminals to fight in Ukraine. You go ahead and find me a modern comparison from the U.S., I’ll wait.

Edit: violent criminals who rape new recruits, by the way — in the interest of clarity.

Hadn’t realized that was a thing, yet another reason to hate daylight savings. I wonder how places like Arizona compare to states that use daylight savings regarding heart health. Something to look into later, I suppose.

Edit: seems to typically perform better than the national average.

No, the logic still works out it just isn’t nearly as skewed as the article makes it out to be.

Either you are a night person and forced to be a day person, thus staying up and giving yourself sleep deprivation (hurts your heart among other things) or you manage to create a night schedule where you sleep all day (meaning you will need to supplement your vitamin d levels or, surprise surprise, higher risk of coronary heart disease, hypertension, heart failure, strokes).

Humans evolved to be active during the day. We also kind of need it for many other reasons than heart disease.

I love the state regime media’s attempt to spin this.

‘Yeah you can carry a gun, it’s your 2nd amendment right. You’re not actually allowed to use the gun though, come on guys violence is bad.’

Fucking trogs have argued for years that guns are needed for the defense of our democracy. What does a gun do? Apparently in the eyes of the Trump admin, they should behave like those ceremonial knives that are welded into their scabbards.

No, no — only America bad. C’mon, don’t inject nuance into this — say it with me: America bad.

If you speak to someone who has not reappropriated the word

So literally anyone that isn’t LGBTQ+ or an ally? I’m sorry I don’t see how you can believe that bigots will teach their kids anything other than what they teach them. It’s difficult to call this an ‘old mentality’ when plenty of young people participate in it. Like, seriously: perceptions of LGBTQ+ people have shifted so wildly in the past few years (particularly revolving around trans people) that I’m baffled this is still a conversation.

but we showed you it definitely changed, in a lot of situations, for a lot of people.

For whom? Certainly not for trans people, if what you’re saying worked then why are so many people supportive of Trump? Is this an ‘old mentality’? Odd how it manages to gain so much power if it’s a dying breed.

Idk dude, make of it what you will — I do not believe reappropriation is anything other than defining yourself with the words of your oppressors. I will not be doing that.

No I’m pretty sure you can apply a positive context to your use of the word and there are people who will still flip out at you about it.

I don’t really care, there are certain things I can’t stop — performative activism is one of them.

No, my point was never anything but perception of the words having not be changed.

You can change the context to a positive one, it still won’t be received positively by nearly as many people as you all claim.
