Wouldn't all those things also affect the mirrors ability to reflect?

Millenials and younger are all kids.

Nevermind that a not-insignificant portion are entering middle-age.

This is my hole, it was made for me.

Actually show up to elections more than once every four years.

So the majority of a population comprises a majority of the victims? Is this just a really roundabout way of stating that civilians are dying en masse?

Is in the populations or the leadership? I'm sure there's plenty of their populations that aren't psychotic despots or vicious terrorists.

Don't threaten me with a good time.

Because he's very vocal and very visible. While Trump takes all the ire and vitriol they can do all the fully heinous shit that actually makes a difference while very few people actually realize it.

He's the rodeo clown of the republican party.

So... same as it ever was?

I mean, DS9 was almost as much in the boonies as Voyager. Assistance was limited, and there were limitations on what he could do, as he was only running the station at the behest of the Bajoran government, not as a true representative of the Federation.

It also introduced facets of war, even before it became a full blown thing in the later seasons. He wasn't always on the side of the angels... because there are no angels in war. War only ever makes demons.

It doesn't excuse his actions, but it doesn't make them truly inexcusable either. They both operated in much more of a grey area than either of the two previous series.

If he did, he'd probably have those votes from the other side of the aisle he reached across.

The one referring to themselves as a player, in this situation, is usually screwing over the person they're talking to.

Considering how long, and how political, ever decision going through congress gets... you really want every single action of the government to be based on the constant bickering of politicians?

The reason we have these federal agencies is so that decisions can be made without political motivation.

Don't forget unregulated child labor!

I mean if the person you're calling a Scotsman is from Bangladesh...

I assume cause they're not counting all police related shootings.

I don't love him. I think he's taking half measures mostly as an attempt to maintain an economic status quo while pushing for a little bit of social justice (as a treat). It's a move in a positive direction... but mostly because it's the best way to be in opposition of the other side.

I'll still vote for him, because that's the only two choices we're given for the presidential election. I'll still push for better, and vote more for who I think will actually make a difference at lower levels (state/local races), but I literally can't vote for who I "love" because it just won't make any difference.

Love doesn't enter into the equation, sadly.

Ah right, good ole "I didn't get my hands dirty, therefore I'm not culpable"

He is playing defense for the current Israeli regime, helping keep it propped up not just through aid and arms, but through diplomatic pressures as well. He's not solely responsible for Netenyahu and his cronies actions... but that doesn't mean his hands are completely clean, either.

Educational and mindless rarely go hand in hand.

Well if everyone else is doing it, it must be okay!

Tolerance does not equate to love.
