Just wanted to avoid the conversation of I was born this and that way. Becoming a big deal in this thread. Nothing against it it’s just the US keeps telling us how it is pure evil or pure good for the person. Kind of wanted to keep politics and agenda’s out of this. That way we can focus on choice. That is what my first sentence meant.

But you made the choice to go that route instead. You could have seen a doctor or something. I’m not chastising you just saying you had a or multiple choices to make.

That’s why the always raise taxes not bonds for new jails/prisons, That way the can keep reaping money forever, instead of come up with a way to fund themselves.

I don’t mean it like a smart ass but any american’s that go to japan the kids do the same thing and the american’s are so shocked and everything. It has become world known that we stop reporting on it.

Then have other inmates do the cleaning of cells/dorms and general upkeep around here we call them 301’s. We have a county jail that can fit 500 people but has only ever had about 110 max in there. Seems like a waste of space.

What is that?

How would that cost money they have other inmates paying for the expenses with fines and whatnot. Just fine them a lil more to help out the greater good.

Isn’t space travel based on speed?

Do you mind me asking what you do?

That’s what I never understood, if google wants to put in a data center full knowing it will make rates rise, then the people around said data center should get a huge discount from them.

Arbitrary describes an action, decision, or rule based on random choice, personal whim, or individual discretion rather than on any reason

I happen to know you are talking major buck for one to go into a home and do it. I think it’s morbid charging for that but I guess everyone has to make a buck.

Kind of like Larry Flynt said about Hustler…if you don’t like it then don’t read it. If you thought the question was so bad in the first place and make accusations looking for a fight? I quit defending myself years ago. So call me or link whatever you want. But your the one with the agenda it seems. So please leave all of us in piece unl…screw it I give up entertaining you.

I know the feeling. I am a wiki phile when I take that welbutrin in the morning I must go thru 10 or 20 pages before 9 am. But nice to meet you fellow stranger and great answer nonetheless

Umm no. Not all my stuff involves the US. Plus sometimes it makes for better discourse. If I knew more about other countries I would ask about them also. I don’t post just about Politics. Have you seen my post history? Everyone else has. No. And I am not baiting users into an ideological war. How is my question provoking a war? It reads to me someone looking for a fight. Only thing I bait people on is good discourse and engagement which I think is a lost art because people are so quick to get offended…kind of like you right now…instead of having a nice disagreement or debate. If you would like to debate anything else make a post and I will be free to have a civil discussion. And it’s a country I happen to be born and stationed in right now. If I was from lets say England majority of my questions would be about England. But hey seems like your looking for a fight…if you want to step outside, which I mean go to 4chan and have a shirts off fight I would suggest r/pol

Mind if I use you and catty as examples of knowledge bombs? could use you in c/askhistorians

As long as you agree all the wars we both listed are arbitrary

Alright bear with me I am on my phone so maybe answering this in parts while I am waiting for my doc. If you don’t mind I’ll take your first sentence. That was a belief, let me say that again BELIEF, It is kind of like saying every friendly country to your country is my enemy. Now you want to use communism, which is fine. But that is an Idea War. So lets Blame the whole WW2 on one person Hitler. But communism is always blamed on Russia. Which if you boil it down is back to one man Marx and Engels well thats two. I is the equivalent of saying your a Muslim so I am suspect on the way you believe. Communism is a belief and no one yet has won an idea war. Second sentence. Gulf War/Desert storm. That was just fighting someones else’s war. But this time it’s over a substance. I whole wholeheartedly agree. Was it just in anyway shape or form…NO. This is like your the teacher on the playground and break up a fight between to boys. You will not end the conflict because the boys will go else where and continue it one day. As for the substance OIL is just the flavor of the century, those who are smart invest in other tech. but say la V. Ok 3rd sentence…oh just saying my doctor is taking long and this is pretty good on a phone. Again the stuff in Kenya and Tanzania which bad intel is no excuse for auto implementing an attack that killed people who just disagree with the US. Would it have been that bad if we got our bases out of the Middle East? Now this is just leads us into the brink of paranoia like communism. But to believe that at the time we could not have hired at least one single person to walk up to said factory and investigate? There is a movie with Chris Lee that shows Iraq was buying aluminum rods or whatever to build a long range weapons program. Which is a belief with no back up. Except that woman who testified it was false of chemical weapons. Look up people like Valerie Pame and others. Plus Saddam last words while he was in his cell. Told a US Serviceman that it was bullshit. And they did it to keep Iran at bay. And said we The US should watch out for Iran. Damn still going on my phone. Because they were the real threat in the Middle East. Not going to acknowledge the Global War on Terrorism because I did not stand in front of a banner that said MISSION COMPLETE. Ever been to Cambodia? That place is fucked beyond belief, kind of seeing a pattern here?, by Kissinger. Just on the belief the Viet Cong were operating there. Also don’t forget Laos. All in part of a theory/threat of some sorts that if he showed he was a “Madman” they wouldn’t do shit and back off. This was Nixon BTW.

Give me a couple hours have to go for a monthly check up. But good knowledge bomb. Will have a reply when I get back

Propaganda requires intent to something bigger more uncivilized. Ask a question is not. I just felt like starting a conversation. I may be the last one on the net that likes a good discourse
