What do you mean by deep state?

Monsieur 'andprint

The US state department lawyers and the British House of Lords have evidence. That’s why they’re pursuing convictions of the Chinese leaders involved. No, wait— sorry, I misremembered. They both concluded there is insufficient evidence.

Yeah, we’re definitely working with different models.

I know what you’re saying. But basic hygeine, etc, work against some illnesses while other health scares require different strategies (as well as good hygeine). I think we may be talking at cross purposes, working with very different models of the world and of what’s possible.

If we took this approach to those other germs and viruses that you mention, quality of life and life expectancy would plummet as fast as infant mortality shot up. There’s nothing special about Covid in that regard except that it needs more respect than many other issues.

Edit: I edited my comment because I was a bit rude. I apologise for that.

Personal responsibility is the answer if the question is, ‘Would you like to contribute to millions of unnecessary deaths and further countless suffering?’ It clearly doesn’t work as a public health strategy.

One day!

Don’t forget about saying the settlers have a legitimate say on what happens to Hawaii.

What if 90% of Hawaiians had revolted (and lost) while 90%+ of the other 10% of Hawaiians voted in the referendum?

But no down votes!

False dichotomy is when you point out that people might want something other than two shit binary choices.

Probably not with the US around. It’s never let any other country live in quiet peace and prosperity. It’s always worth being optimistic, though.

The US is still bitter that Hawaii was more advanced than the United States of Backwards way back when.

It’s not that Dems don’t try hard enough. They’re one faction in the organising committee of the ruling class. They’re not trying to work for the working class at all.

Out of curiosity, how do those who dispute what Putin is saying here explain multipolarisation? It would be silly to say the war would have no detrimental effects. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t any benefits for Russia… how does this factor into your assessment of the situation?

I think you’ve seriously misunderstood what I said.

Warmonger. Don’t the Ukrainians get a say in whether the US can sacrifice so many people for US goals?

The US was involved in WWII from the beginning. They were just on the side of the Nazis. The State only intervened openly in the end to prevent the spread of communism. Then they made sure to rescue as many Nazis as possible and put them in positions of power in West Germany, the EU, and NATO, etc.

Since that war, the US has been doing ‘what they pleased’, exactly what the Nazis and what Japan would’ve done. To this day the US tortures, runs concentration camps, and brutally oppresses billions of people around the world.

Those who argued for the US to stay out were right then, and are still right today.
