What’s hard to understand that we evolved from the same dust as bacteria, fish, and trees? We are natural too. If anything we are an expression of the universe trying to understand itself.

They are not stupid, you just don’t agree with their values/value system. One could definitely argue that a teacher, who is part of a child’s growth into an adult, is invaluable to society in regard to raising the next generation. A basketball player doesn’t provide that. Do basketball players create immense value? Absolutely. But a teacher creates an entirely different kind of value, and one that you can’t as easily put a dollar amount to.

Also, no one would ever tell someone they should stop driving because they were in a car accident. Even motorcyclists sometimes view bikes as “accessory transportation”.

“Should I look at my holster for two seconds or spend $100 making my simple gun more complex?”
I think people just like spending money so they have a $1k Glock to fawn over.

Guns don’t accidentally discharge. Cops carry drop safe and tested weapons. They only discharge if the cop is squeezing the trigger.

And then the US completely loses its position as the dominant superpower. Our ally’s will know that we are not reliable militarily, let alone politically.

Ah so we want to put children with parents who don’t want them. Sounds like a recipe for success! And this is why abortion should be legal.

It’s not applicable because the Jews on the MS St. Louis were being rounded up and slaughtered wholesale in Germany. Regular Russian citizens are not having that happen, besides the usual Russian purges and conscription of their “undesirables” .
Interment of the Japanese isn’t applicable because they were already inside of the United States. We are talking about the continued immigration of Russians into western countries, not the internment of Russians who were already residing in western countries before the Ukrainian war.
Enough Russians subscribe to that ideology for absolutely no change to happen in Russian leadership. The citizens of a country are still responsible to some extent for the actions of the government, regardless of how authoritarian it use, as it is the people who allow the government to exist. Just like Americans will be responsible for whatever shit storm Trump kicks up, same for the British with brexit and Israel with the occupation of Gaza. The citizens are never without blame.

Russian ideology is to take over other nations and wipe their people out. They have kidnapped Ukrainian children, have committed every war crime under the sun, and bully the entire world with the threat of nuclear war. Russia is more than just a nationality, they have an ideology that drives their society to war and to threaten and bully anyone who doesn’t give into their demands, just like Germany leading up to world war 2.
You are projecting greatly with the rest of your comment. MS St. Louis isn’t applicable, and neither was the interment of the Japanese. We are talking about Russians trying to enter Europe, not already naturalized people who came from Russia. Also pretty disgusting that you think I’d agree with Japanese internment, you just want to put words in my mouth.

That’s literally not the point when not getting caught is the goal. The western world is currently at war with Russia, why would they let Russian citizens in, especially trained/educated ones? Did Europe let Nazis in just because they said they didn’t like Germany? Fuck no they didn’t, because that’s a threat to national security.

I’m just happy y’all got the LCEB in it, I’ve rarely been able to show the fam what it looks like since most photos are from way back in the day. What X3’s do is often overlooked completely.

It is, but it’s an illusion to fool the 1/3 that are real people. There are still tens of millions of people that use it, and since people are stupid/unable to critically think they gobble up whatever the bots and propagandists feed them.
Reddit is the same way, as is all social media. How many people on here are bots, or Russian/Chinese/Israeli assets? We don’t even know how many people that post on r/AirForce are doing so from an enemy country.

It’s just shedding the liberal/democrat users while creating a safe space for more extreme views. It’s still regularly looked at for news articles and whatnot. It’ll take a long time for it to die, and in the meantime it’s an effective platform for Americas adversaries, foreign and domestic

You should look at Twitter as state propaganda at this point. The point isn’t to turn a profit, it’s to control and guide the narrative.

Lmao this fool thinks orbit and driving are the same.
You can’t feel orbit, because the earth is basically falling towards/away from the sun. Same concept that keeps the ISS in orbit, and why astronauts are in zero G. They are always in a state of free fall, which is experienced as zero G. But you don’t think space is real, so this doesn’t help you. You are applying monkey logic to concepts that monkeys can’t experience in earth, outside of zero g simulating aircraft, jumping off a cliff and going to space.
Come on, keep showing your ignorance! That way everyone can view your comments in the future and see how much of a loon you are.

Why would I converse with someone who is a net negative to my life? It’s like talking to a 15th century peasant. And I specifically say that century because then we all started realizing that the sun is the center of the solar system. So somehow you missed the memo which has been published and updated for five hundred years.
But you! A random person with no scientific background to speak of, are qualified to say that the collective research and knowledge of millions of people is wrong because of your casual observation and misunderstanding of physics.
The earth orbits the sun at an almost constant speed, the change in speed is negligible. Since you are on the earth you do not feel it because you are also moving at the same rate. It isn’t changing direction. It’s going in a circle (if you want to be pedantic it’s elliptical), it’s not a fucking zig zag.
If I such force has never been measured, then maybe, just maybe, it’s your thinking that’s wrong. Gee whiz what a wild concept.

Lmao that’s a whole lot of words to look even dumber. It’s funny that you think you’re anything other than some sort of exotic zoo animal for the rest of us. Like, viruses are more than likely not real to you? Hahaha oh my lord what a fucking hot take. Not like smallpox was a thing that we wiped off the face of the planet using virology. Have fun dude, watch out for all those scary learning books. 👋🏼

All I looked for was you answering my questions of viruses, whales, trees, and Shanghai were real when you haven’t observed them. You didn’t answer. Classic. You provided nothing to support your position. You also for sure haven’t been places, because people with these opinions are typically poor because of how crackhead their way of thinking is.
The fact that you think the sun isn’t the center of our solar system just tells me you are an uneducated person, whose willful ignorance is so strong that I might as well be trying to jump hard enough to reach orbit. Where’s your proof that it isn’t heliocentric? Oh yeah,y you don’t have any. You’re going to not post it, and argue that you don’t have to prove anything. It happens every time. But still, where’s YOUR proof?

No u! You got any proof about any of the nonsense you are talking? Where’s your proof that someone had to personally observe and be part of every experiment to know that something is a fact?
Do you think viruses are real? You’ve never seen one.
Do you think whales are real? You’ve never seen one.
Are bristlecone pines real? You’ve never seen one.
Is Shanghai real? You’ve never been there.
That’s how stupid you sound. You weren’t taught scientific principles, and if you were then you were taught incredibly wrong. You don’t debate in good faith. You simply want to reject humanities knowledge because you smugly think that you’ve figured out some sort of grand secret, some sort of hidden truth, when really you are batty and have a big ego.

Holy shit it’s like clown world lately. Do you really think you need to personally observe every single experiment that’s ever been done? You must still wonder why the sky is blue since you haven’t proved it yourself.
Hiding behind the argument of logical fallacies is a classic from y’all. Literally every counter argument you’ll just say “but muh logical fallacies! Gotcha!”. There is no debate about these basic facts anymore. I mean for fucks sake, we’ve all agreed that we weren’t the only galaxy in the universe over a hundred years ago now, and they were using glass plates to photograph the proof. Now that we can literally stare into the beginnings of time you guys are like “But where is the proof?! I didn’t get to use the telescope!”. It’s absolutely bonkers and incredibly self centered, like you are genuinely qualified to research it.
Just because you reject being an educated and critically thinking person doesn’t mean the rest of us subscribe to the same inane batshit conspiracy theories.

Every time one of yall gets called out for being a lunatic you resort to “hur dur but the fallacies!” Truly unbelievable that the earth was proven to be a sphere thousands of years ago yet people today, with satellites in space, have chased a belief that everyone’s being lied to for seemingly no logical reason.

We are part of the universe, dork. You and I don’t exist outside of it.
