I mean, this just re-enforces what I said. I can't think of one example where people are not eventually corrupted by power. Hence, why people are shitty. It really is in our nature to destroy ourselves. Just look at where we are now. There's no proof we'll get better. It's all just lofty ideals we like to say, which is another shitty thing we do. We are shit.

The state tells you murder is illegal. Except when the state does it. You can't expect people to follow, "do what I say, not what I do."

It's cruel, it's a reflection of our morals. The death penalty is not a deterrent for murder. The death penalty is hypocrisy. The death penalty is for an unserious society.

But the death penalty is just a symptom of a greater chronic illness we suffer from. We'll just continue to kill ourselves until we find a cure for the disease.

Edit: I see many do not like my wording for state sanctioned murder. If you are reading this and don't understand, imagine if listening to George Bush (can't remember which) tell the tv America doesn't negotiate with terrorists. He's drawing a moral line in the sand with terrorism. That's my point. We need to figure out where our moral line in the sand is with the death penalty, because right now it's all over the place. Do I think outlawing the death penalty will solve our societal woes? No, I do not. The people will demand it until it is reinstated. For me I ask what is the purpose of the death penalty? Does it serve a greater good for a society? Obviously it does not. Americans are murdered all the time, so it serves no purpose.

Communism is fine. People are shitty tho. They tend to ruin everything, including capitalism.

You're so close. It's true. Why give them when we don't have it covered for ourselves.

You hint on a lot of other issues too, like homelessness and drug programs.

I'll say this, we do not have an issue with funding. For example we can look at other countries that do have proper funding for these programs and their gdp is nowhere near what the US generates. And yet we struggle!?

We have problems that we can't solve alone but we are indoctrinated into thinking that we can.

We don't need to throw this money away, but we do. Somebody will get paid a boat load of money and some poor immigrant will receive substandard healthcare. All this is working as intended and someone in 50 years will ask the same question.

Lol, the French one is true and I had no idea

Americans have accepted this idea. To our detriment. And to the detriment of the underdeveloped world. It's a wicked system. God damn it we're foul.

Never steal from thieves

You have an insufferable personality and you're not as profound as you think you are.

You think you're unique coz you're contrarian and can think for yourself. You're just more interested in being edgy.

And it's not just lemmy, all of media has come out to remember who Kissinger really was. Except for Reuters. They suck.

Anyway, be brave and pick a side. There's no high road here by taking a neutral stance on Kissinger. He was a monster and should be remembered as such.

I'll never understand fanboys that fawn over subs. Why give yourself extra work? Anime is the perfect medium for dub.

I understand that you can lose meaning in translation but most fans do not understand Japanese so why?!?

I wish I could say this is Twitter's death kneel but we all know they'll be back together soon enough. Like an abusive relationship

His achievements can easily be googled. You agree with that or is it too "Hollywood" for ya. Too cliche to call him a villain.
