When your options are:

50% dead
100% dead

Having only these options suck, but one of those is clearly worse, and if your tax dollars will be used for one your abstemiousness does the 50% who could have lived no favors.

So, to be clear, you would rather have more genocide than to acknowledge in this imperfect world, sometimes harm reduction is the best that is available to us. Do you think a trump admin would have been counseling Israel not to be flattening the West Bank? Because that's what the Biden admin has been doing, and I'm pretty sure that a trump admin would be cheering them on and demanding bloodshed, which to me seems worse. And yes, you'd get to feel better about not participating in the system, but your hands would in fact have more blood on them. You just wouldn't notice it.

So you're saying one of them makes the world less worse, and is therefore preferable to the one that makes it more worse.

Well yes, Democrats get rule of law. Republicans get law and order, which is usually existing systems of power to effect maintenance of existing social hierarchies and oppress the outgroup. It's all very clear.

Sreetips fan?

And they sure are roueing the day!

State's rights to do what?

Bees play with toys and do happy actions when given toys. I'm of the opinion that some form of internal experience extends at least as far down the brain size scale as at least some bugs, and might extend into single celled organisms and plants.

Is there a competing theory you find more compelling? "I don't know what happened" is fine, but if there's something else I haven't heard of that could explain the facts as we know them I'm interested in learning about it.

Their billionaire sugar daddies will dump them?

So what you're saying is, they'll be insufferable assholes no matter what we do, and we should see to it that a criminal repays society for his crimes.

When they were growing in it would have. Even laying down felt like getting knives in the nipples. It's fine for me now, though.

Rod Serling? Answering before I read comments.

How financially functional do you think they'll be when they lose all the trade agreements of the US and the ability to freely trade with the other states?

Men really will do anything to avoid going to therapy.

Yeah, I caught that in a video from a content creator I watch. Not sure what to make of it, still thinking about it. Actual personal growth would be pretty surprising from the guy who kneecapped the pandemic response because he was worried he'd smear his makeup.

Trump is a narcissist, he is incapable of admitting any flaw or fault, be it in an accidentally sent typo tweet, or letting the experts address a public health issue rather than pushing himself to the forefront and suggesting putting sterilizing lights into the body.

That's what actually happened, yes. That doesn't mean that many people who worship him have not tried to find an explanation that means it was completely intentional, and I think it's worth knowing about how far people will go in his defence, even when it requires them to twist themselves into pretzels to defend something that would have been completely fine if he had just laughed it off.

Yes. Many people have tried to explain it. Parts of the qult are claiming that it's a cure for the covid vaccine, (Co)Cobalt, (V)Vanadium, and two (Fe) iron.

Go on, then. What evidence?
