    The last I heard, we’ve now murdered 10 boatsful of Venezuelans. I don’t even know if that number is accurate because I’ve been too busy to really catch up on all of our current atrocities. The last I’d heard before that number was 3.

    You could take a look at the article in order to catch up: “If authorized, the planned missions would represent a significant escalation in Trump’s ongoing series of attacks against he has claimed to be drug cartel operations, which include at least 15 strikes against alleged drug smuggling boats in the Caribbean and western Pacific Ocean.”

    Up to 15 strikes it looks like.

      No.

      But you’re right, I probably should have read it before responding. I was immediately reactionary.

          From my perspective, no need to apologize. You called me out where I deserved to be called out. You did not attack me personally and provided context. I seriously thought you were offering a stern and sincere response, which I totally respect.

          That being said, I’m sorry that you were in a shitty mood. These are very stressful times and it’s easy to accidentally snap at your neighbor. Remember that the most valuable resource you can offer is yourself, which is why it’s important to take care of yourself. If you ever need to vent and just feel the acknowledgement of another human, feel free to send a message.

            Thanks! Elevated my mood instantly to be reminded that it’s still possible to behave as humans online.
