Can it take back headlines that imply the text regrets itself? It’s a “regretted” text. The text isn’t full of regret.

If you’re trying to please the critics in this thread, you’re wasting your time. You could set up a whole Union of Socialist Republics and they’d say you were leaving too large of a carbon footprint while doing it.

He’ll have a concept of a plan by then, no doubt.

I’ll be honest with you. I love Michael Bolton’s music! I do. I’m a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, it doesn’t get any better than when he sings “When a Man Loves a Woman.”

Agreed.

Yes, changing your opinion when there are new facts is smart.

The problem is that what changed was “Other nations are under threat of invasion and might benefit from landmines” to “Now we are also under threat.” So, that’s hypocritical. Landmines were always good for defense from invasion, so perhaps they should have been banned under more strict circumstances.

If you’re only changing your position because now it affects you personally and not out of general principles, that’s hypocrisy.

I wrote this on a lead-up article. Being against the use of landmines up until the point of “Well, it’s different now because we need them” is hypocritical.

“I have a socialist axe to grind, therefore Trump’s victory is a result of his opponent not being a socialist.”

I fear you may be oblivious to your own flaws.

“A genocide just happened in the West Bank because I say it did, and I don’t need numbers to prove it.”

Rather than go to war over the similarities between their gods, they went to war over the small differences in the copies.

Pretty much all of them in Germany and the occupied territories were killed. The survivors hid or fled. There were about 3 million Palestinians living in the West Bank two years ago. How many have died due to Israeli action in that time?

I’m not saying the deaths are not tragic. Is it genocide or do we cheapen the word?

Keep using sarcasm and satire. People need to recognize it when it’s obvious. Your reply was too on point to be anything else.

I was at a college graduation last month, and at least 90% of the awards announced from the podium (significant accomplishments for a graduating class of hundreds) were given to women. The graduating class itself is probably 55% women or so. Women of course still face many barriers, but men are falling behind at some levels.

Personally, I don’t like being punched in the dick. But I understand there are people who do.

Congratulations on your sudden literacy (?).

I argued with a guy that the genocide under Trump would be accelerated versus what was happening under Biden and likely under Harris. He more or less wrote that genocide is genocide.

Now, I understood that genocide had degrees and was the act of wiping a people out, even if in progress, but here I have learned that there are even weaker forms. To me, that weakens the claim of genocide overall, and we need some qualifiers or terms to help distinguish the different levels.

In the present thread, taking control over a larger portion of the West Bank than the ~60% the Israelis had since Camp David is “genocide.”

Doctor infection. I am not a kidney.

RIP your DMs.
