Im not saying they cant, but kids indoctrinated by racist egomaniacs are much more likely to turn out the same way.
So in about 20 years our lives could start having a fraction of the comfort and joy we had until now? Sounds awesome
The same as my grandparents, which was the same as their grandparents and their grandparents before that.
I completely understand that kind of decision. Unfortunately its only gonna make it worse. If the people potentially making a positive impact on the world stop having children the downward spiral accelerates.
Noone is disagreeing with your concerns. They are disagreeing with your selfrighteous stance that your problems are the most important.
Using a switch gaming thread for self pity is some major narcissism red flag.
What you meant to say was
Sony: we’ll let the whole world pay for the fascist bullshit the US is pulling <3
Please dont ever have children. This is sick.
The only acceptable intent would be something like saving your child from a murderer assaulting your family and there not being enough time for supplies.
Thats not a clown costume
Interesting. Ive never thought about it but I think I actually capitalize exclusively with RShift.
Not sure what kind of smokers you meet. The ones I have to deal with blow cancer in my face right next to children, get aggressive when I ask them not to, spit on the floor every 5s, throw their still lit cigs into trash bins or into nature and cant stop coughing on the train.
You mean my good counterpart?
Im not and I dont think Ive argued for it. I tried looking at it from multiple angles, thats not the same.
Noone in Ukraine supports the war. That doesnt save Ukraine from being attacked.
I never said I support conscription, Im just saying without it Ukraine would have already lost the war and their country.
That would be an option. Abandon your citizenship and the right to ever obtain it again and youre free to go.
On the other hand, you benefitted from the country until that point and abandoning it when it needs you the most seems kind of unfair. Countries dont revoke your citizenship when they dont need you anymore, like for criminals or homeless people, it goes both ways. I dont think there is an obvious solution, in a war everyone loses.
I dont know that book but yeah, it sound like a thought experiment easy to come up with.
Yes capitalism changes the rules. Still, being a US citizen has lots of benefits, laws are favorable for most people. Even with all the police brutality and school shootings going on, not having any regulation would probably be much worse (take a look at countries with even higher corruption rates)
What are you basing the statement that their survival doesnt matter on? They are soldiers that are inevitably needed in a war, but the countries survival depends on their success in the war which is kind of equivalent to the survival of as many of them as possible.
To me it seems Ukraine can choose between not having enough troops and inevitably losing the war and their country, or sending in conscripts (of which a certain percentage will die) and having a chance of fighting back.
It does seem cruel that some are forced to die (or risk dying) for the survival of the masses, but would it be better if all citizens were forced equally, women and children included? What would be the alternative? Relying on volunteers alone doesnt seem enough, so should they abandon their country?
I think the reason you dont understand many comments in this thread is because you dont seem to know what a “communist” it. People are answering your question based on the official definition, but you are going by a gut feeling that probably springs form propaganda and biases in your community. I encourage you to read up on communism if you really want to know.
If youre just here to pick fights with no knowledge to back up your claims, youre on the right track.
