Is that you Stephen? I don’t think it’s going to impact your sales. You could take a shit on the side walk and it would make it to the top 20, and get it’s own movie.

I do mean that sincerely. I gather you disagree with me and that’s absolutely fine. There’s definitely a lot of solid arguments out there against it. I understand.

You at least respected I don’t have the time or energy right now to get into a long complicated discussion. I just wanted to say what I told soldiers instead of “thanks for your service”

I shouldn’t have lumped you in with the others, and for that i do sincerely apologize.

Edit: and I’m not as much of an asshat as I sound in my comments to others. I’m just tired and too busy to go into all the complexity involved in avoiding a world war. Obviously that would take hours to even get to “I respectfully disagree”.

Fair enough. Other people asked but you absolutely did not. You are correct. I’ll take that L

No one single thing could have fixed the complex situation. If you want the complex answer, Google it. Better people than me have explained it. I don’t have the time or energy.

Yet you asked the question anyway just so you could say “there it is” and pat yourself on the back like you uncovered something.

It’s like if I said “I don’t believe I’m the death penalty”

And you responded “what about for really bad people”

“Yes even for really bad people”

“There it is!”

It’s nonsense.

It’s one of many easy things we could’ve done but didn’t do. If you want a complete answer you can Google it. I said I don’t have the time to list it all here but the information is easily available.

Then pay my consulting fee. Google is free. I am not.

There what is?

“War is unnecessary. Don’t message me about war you like. Just look it up yourself”

“What about this war”

“Unnecessary”

Shocked Pikachu face

I know what appeasement means. It was very clearly not what I was talking about.

I’m plenty informed. I just have no desire to educate you. I don’t feel id get a fair return from that investment.I said that from the beginning.

If you want to know the answers, google it. If you don’t want to know, why should I try to force you. I’m a busy man. Do your own research.

If you want more sarcasm keep replying. that’s all I’m willing to offer you.

If someone is running from a burning building, I don’t feel sending them back inside the building while you decide what if anything you want to do is a well planned strategy.

My point isn’t “take the Jews, problem solved” my point is “here’s one strategy off the top of my head that would’ve helped a lot. If I can think of one easy solution so effortlessly then we clearly put no effort into fixing the problem without a war. No effort at all”

If you want full details of how exactly we could’ve prevented war listed out by experts… Google it. Like I said at the beginning. The info is out there. Why should I copy and paste it for you. Go read it yourself.

I’m not here to hold your hand.

We could’ve stopped the Nazis by… You know… Allowing Jewish people to move to America…

But bombs are cool too I guess. If you only want to be slightly less racist than Nazis and are fine with a lot of unnecessary death.

Pointing out I can disagree with someone’s ideas and still recognize when they are being very reasonable.

capitalists that are less so.

Ah the ol’ “you’re stupid” rebuttal. Works every time. Automatic win in every debate lol

I’m a capitalist. The person you are responding to sounded very reasonable.

“the US doesn’t like”

That’s very true. The us does not like north Korea. That isn’t saying north Korea is good. It’s just saying there are motives at play to make north Korea look as bad as possible.

If I said Jeffrey Epstein was a cannibal, you can say “no he wasn’t” without thinking he was a good person.

As long as you don’t ask any questions… I got you. Meet me beside the dumpster at wendys. I prefer to be paid directly in drugs but cash app is fine to.

Should we supply weapons to foreign nations?

“Don’t”

Okay. Problem solved.

I mean… That is a theory. I don’t like it but it’s still better than war. Arguably the cold war and proxy wars prevented a major war…

I dont think of it as a perfect win obviously because of the proxy wars like Vietnam and Korea. Those wars specifically gave me a bucket full of nice medals but cost me every single one of my uncles. There were other proxy wars though.

Anyway my point is 2 fold.

1. Arguably that strategy prevented a much bloodier war between Russia and the US but there were still better ways to handle that without any war.

And 2) if you ignore the proxy wars the “cold war” approach is one way to avoid war, I guess. The government equivalent of the obnoxious drunk guy flexing his muscles and saying “you don’t want none of this bro”… It’s better than a war but not my favorite strategy. Although I might not like that approach it did prevent a war, it was better than a war… So… Good job?

Again the proxy wars ruin that but they were unnecessary and didn’t change much for the US or Russia. Obviously they did a lot of damage to the countries we fought in. My point is the cold war approach didn’t need that to prevent the war. It actually pushed us closer.

I’m just saying the “I’ve got a bigger gun” diplomacy… Well it’s definitely a strategy that is better than war…

One day he will rule, I hope he lets us live.

Sure wink and oddly enough spark plug cleaner smells a lot like perfume wink

I got you bro.

I don’t believe in wars (don’t message me, yes there was a way to end your specific example thru diplomacy. Look it up on google)

Anyway I always go with “I admire you’re bravery” because that doesn’t go against my beliefs but still shows respect for what they had to do.
