Just so it doesn't get buried in rappy-crap, the last relevant post

G, I'm starting to worry about YOU. Do you feel no compassion for the lives that have been irrevocably snuffed out, or made intolerable? Are you really such a selfish pig that you really don't care about so much death and regression, because the victims are too colored, too Muslim, too poor, or too socialist? Cause yanno, THAT'S the impression I'm getting of you. Comfortable. Willing to claw your way up onto the shoulders of drowning people, so you won't be inconvenienced by having to acknowledge that anyone's life (other than yours and other comfortable people "like you") is worth anything.
Do you live in a democracy?
Well then, why aren't YOU making a fuss?
I've already formed an impression of you, and it's not too far away from rappy. And well-deserved, as far as I can tell.

Obama totally fucked up Libya. It wasn't fucked up before Obama bombed them into the terrorist age.

Quote:Because you're constantly telling people not to make a fuss? Because you characterize my concern about people getting killed en masse as "just whining"? Because you're always on the side of shutting people up? What am I supposed to think, G? You're very consistent like that. Again: well deserved reputation.
How do you know I'm not making a fuss? Please answer that.
Anyway, I got stuff to do which doesn't include talking with you.

It's not so much the killing of people, en mass , as it is who is doing the killing.
Syrians , ISIS or Tutsi, meh... but by god, Israelis are the worst! Worse than Hitler!

Yes, indeed! We sure improved THAT nation's future by bombing it, didn't we?
Should have left it to Gaddafi then? Think if he had put down the revolution things would have been much better? Might have been prosperous and secular, but not too comfortable for anyone speaking outside the party line.
That's one thing that I've always found funny about you. You support and defend regimes that would have you in jail - or worse - in a minute if you ranted against them like you do the U.S. and the Western Democracies.

Quote:Signy, it's recently been brought to my attention that I've become quite irritable and crotchety when discussing death & destruction... now don't take this the wrong way, but you're kinda makin' me look like Mr. Sunshine lately. I don't know what you're going through, but I'd recommend a break from wrapping your head around all the antics of the self-serving slime of Humanity for a little while & disappear into some good science fiction books or something, little sister.

Sig has a point. The only people here showing concern for the Libyans - WHO THE US BOMBED BY POLICY - is her. Everyone else seems to shrug it off.
G - BTW - I think of you as Geezer's new year's resolution to create a more credible presence on the board. With a new but thin and cheap coat of paint over the same old Ayn Randian rot. But anyway - it is the easiest, least costly thing in the world to anonymously post - yeah, US policy sucks. We DO choose to create death, destruction, and misery for innocent people. I will closely consider who I vote for next time. But you can't even be bothered to do that. Have you EVER expressed ANY concern - at all - for the unfortunate victims of US policy? In fact you do the opposite. You go out of your way to dismiss and trivialize the facts of death and destruction for gain. And you malign the poster who has the unmitigated gall to bring them to your attention.
So, Signy aside, what am I supposed to think about you?
SAGAN: We are releasing vast quantities of carbon dioxide, increasing the greenhouse effect. It may not take much to destabilize the Earth's climate, to convert this heaven, our only home in the cosmos, into a kind of hell.

There are those who take a holier than thou attitude and argue that perspective against all circumstances. Yet their true nature always reveals itself in the end as they document their prejudices themselves. Your and Sig’s judgmental attitude towards many here loses all credibility as your favoritism towards the east was exposed by you in your complete willingness to ignore its crimes against humanity.
Sorry but your allegations against more reasonable minds in these threads are baseless.

Quote:They're not baseless. You are being hyper-reactive here. You too easily get provoked into the us vs. them mantra that the world military industrial complex enjoys. If one focuses tightly on what's wrong or evil with U.S. policy & actions to the exclusion of all other equally evil policies & actions of other powers, that does not make them WRONG. You need to adjust your logic chip, my friend, and get that chip off your shoulder. YES, 'they' are guilty of heinous shit, just like 'we' are.

You missed the point. I am not taking any side except to say what 1kiki stated was bogus because......
