Could you imagine the trauma from your teddy that speaks to you like a person and at some point your parents throw it out because it’s just a teddy and the kid needs to get over their ‘imaginary friend’.

Adults are having trouble with this. It’s horrifying that they’re forcing it on children

It’s been a slow start, but it started in Ukraine. So far it’s been Ukraine then Iran. Next is likely Cuba or Mexico. Cuba for regime change. Mexico for ‘the cartels’. Once the final straw hits, then things will escalate faster

This doesn’t feel like an actual serious question. Try looking up wild cows and jungle fowl. Yes the domestic cow and chicken would probably go extinct if no one was continuing to domesticate them. That’s kinda how evolution works

(I want to be clear that I’m not advocating for accelerationism, I’m just seeing holes in the argument) Pushing people in a vulnerable position now to make change for the future is a great example of the needs of the many ethical arguments. Advocating against change because it hurts me in the short term is inherently selfish. I know people that are accelerationists, and The ones I know don’t assume that they’ll come out ahead or even the same. They recognize that the system is inherently broken and they think they need more people uncomfortable to make meaningful change.

Churchill is probably viewed as worse than Hitler in parts of the world for good reason.

I think a lot of the argument against voting for lesser evil is the acceleration aspect. It’s advocating for a quicker fall of the American empire

I was going to buy a series x this year, but with the increase in game pass price, it’s just not worth it anymore.

From your source: ‘Beginning in January 2019, during the Venezuelan presidential crisis, the U.S. applied additional economic sanctions to individuals or companies in the petroleum, gold, mining, and banking industries’

If you check the GDP per capita of Venezuela it was increasing at positive rate immediately after Chavez took power.

Life expectancy was also increasing after Chavez had taken over. https://data.who.int/countries/862

Most Venezuelan refugees cite crime, access to food and healthcare as reasons for leaving. Guess what US sanctions were causing. If you guessed lack of food and supplies for healthcare which caused an increase in crime, you’d be correct.

If socialism doesn’t work, why do they spend so many resources making sure it fails?

The majority of Venezuelan refugees cite crime, inflation and lack of food/health security. Those problems are a direct result of US sanctions. The US implemented those sanctions to destabilize the government. It looks like it worked

Liberal is an actual ideology. A hallmark of liberal thought is that business can do things better than government. Leftist thought starts at capitalism is bad, and is much deeper than you think. Democrats of all types are liberal. The kicker is so are the Republicans. It’s one reason that Republicans are able to push the Democrats to do anything they want. They don’t fundamentally disagree on things.

I miss it… I never knew how much I’d appreciate seeing who down voted me. Occasionally I’d think, ‘hmmm this guy with opinions I respect didn’t like that? Why?’ more often I’d think ‘hahaha nazi’

What a weird reply. I have no idea what you’re trying to get across.

Trump’s legal basis is from Obama’s legislation.
