Yeah I'm extremely dumb pay no mind

no literally every protagonist is the good guy thats what protagonist means.

Except that's not what protagonist means. The main character is the protagonist and their opposition is the antagonist, regardless of alignment.

Edit from wiki: The term protagonist comes from Ancient Greek πρωταγωνιστής (prōtagōnistḗs) 'actor who plays the chief or first part', combined of πρῶτος (prôtos, 'first') and ἀγωνιστής (agōnistḗs, 'actor, competitor'), which stems from ἀγών (agṓn, 'contest') via ἀγωνίζομαι (agōnízomai, 'I contend for a prize').

Double edit: I completely missed the sarcasm my bad

If the only reason you don't do bad things is because you're afraid of punishment, you're not a good person. The problem is that we used punishment as a crutch to begin with.

the world isn't ready for a woman president so I didn't even vote.

Aren't we like the only country that still hasn't had a woman leading the nation? Maybe I'm not the best to get family advice from but my family hasn't heard from me for almost 2 decades now and I think you'd be a lot happier if you could say the same.

Dude needs to learn about blocklists if that's what his feed looks like. There definitely is a cesspool but it's pretty isolated.

I've tagged you as "thinks gop supports Palestine." Hope you prove me wrong.

Probably. Considering how little air time his sex trafficking has received and it being an almost non-existent topic on fox.

Nope. According to all my neighbors I'm the only one with chickens

And the party of tradition won't care

I have some backyard chickens. One day a chick appeared on my porch and decided to follow my hens around and never left. Turns out roosters will find hens even in the middle of a small city.

"it is a period of civil war" didn't alert anyone the movie they're about to watch is going to be political?

Well you see, the law doesn't apply to some people. Hope this helps.

Staying home when you know a rapist has a chance is still making a choice.

I launch 20 rockets at a military base

Which military base did the pagers go off in? This is more like dropping bombs on a school or hospital because you think there are some military personnel inside. Oh wait, they do that too. I can't believe Israel managed to get a bunch of idiots to defend IED's.

Well let's see, the FBI calls international terrorism "Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups who are inspired by, or associated with, designated foreign terrorist organizations or nations (state-sponsored)." And I'd argue the pagers were state-sponsored, violent, and to my knowledge criminal since killing civilians is typically viewed as criminal.

But I really like how Wikipedia words it:

the use of violence against non-combatants to achieve political or ideological aims. The term is used in this regard primarily to refer to intentional violence during peacetime or in the context of war against non-combatants (mostly civilians and neutral military personnel). There are various different definitions of terrorism, with no universal agreement about it. Different definitions of terrorism emphasize its randomness, its aim to instill fear, and its broader impact beyond its immediate victims.

Do I really need to spell out for you how using an IED to kill whoever happens to be near it when the detonator is pressed fits this definition? If so I'd like to see why you think Oct 7th was a terrorist attack.

Are those the only requirements you think make something an act of terror?

Well that's the article my boss used to "prove" to me that trump wasn't associated with it. It'd be nice if honest reporting wasn't immediately cast out as being leftist.

Looks like her family didn't think it was her choice so I'ma take that at face value.

Yeah whole team did

I've seen it already too. Was playing overwatch and the enemy tank was talking shit to our tank and he responded with "I'm glad trump won so someone will rape mercy." Was quite jarring tbh
