I think that your particular brand of moral elitism includes criticizing anyone who isn't as virulently anti-establishment as you because you think that anyone who supports anyone even remotely mainline Democrat or Republican is a bloodthirsty warmonger.

Who are you actually defending right now? Give some examples so we have an idea, cuz it just sounds like Hillary supporters. I already gave a bunch of examples of who are and are not warmongers, and the line is pretty mild.

I think blood is on foolmo's hands for refusing to set himself on fire rather than purchase goods that are available due to colonialism and pay taxes that fund the military industrial complex

The important thing is that if I'm guilty then you somehow get to feel better about yourself. I definitely don't need to be reminded about how much war my taxes directly pay for though.

what if I voted for hillary because at least she wasn't donald fucking trump but think war is bad

Depends how much you REALLY think war is bad, which could be measured how you supported her vs others in the primaries and how you support anti-war third parties.

It's not an exclusive moral ground at all. Like I said before, the VAST majority of people truly and deeply hate war and oppose it. However there are a ton of people who do put political victory and self-pacification over actually being anti-war. You would obviously agree that picking the 2nd worst war candidate is not washing your hands of blood.

Blood is on the hands of literally every human on planet Earth save a few self-sustaining native tribes. At least us neocons are honest about it.

You're not honest about it. Neocons are the absolutely biggest wussies about it ever. "Oh, everyone supports the global society which leads to war, so I'm not doing anything special." So pathetically weak.

Admit to yourself and to us right now that the world would be a more peaceful place without you. There are people trying to improve things and climb out of this hole and you're not one of them. That's what I mean by blood on your hands. Can you admit that? Let's see your honesty.

I think extending it to the voters is a bit complicated.

It's complicated but so is quantum mechanics. But both are doable and EXTREMELY important to understand, so what kind of excuse is this?

But we're not even talking about the complicated parts. Where you might support free college tuition, but that means a much payroll tax, which creates a welfare ceiling for a lot of poor kids, so they are forced to go into the military, which enables causes higher military engagement worldwide, etc. We're talking about something much simpler.

If you support, ignore, or don't explicitly denounce the warmongering of your voting candidate, then you absolutely share some blame for war. You are part of the popular support that is required for any democratic government to wage war. If you voted for Obama super reluctantly because at least he's better than Romney, that's more complicated sure. But if you voted for Bush/Obama because you liked them, you share the blame. If you don't throw up a bit every time you think about Obama's peace prize, you share the blame. If you ignore decades of history in order to defend Trump's escalation of war, you share the blame. If you sing about how Hillary should've won because Trump stoked war, you share the blame. These are not complicated situations.

I just want to point out that Iran's response to the world to show their defiance to the American Terrorists was 200 civilian deaths (over a hundred which were their own) and zero enemy casualties.

Reminds me of how America self-destructed its economy of 300 million people and killed 10000 of its own troops to make up for 3500 civilian deaths.

I'm starting to think this war thing isn't so glamorous... actually nah I'll wait until a democrat is in office to complain. FUCK YEAH TRUMP'S MILITARY! 20 SUICIDES A DAY! LET'S MAKE IT 30!!!!!!!!!

Do you really think the guy who beat you up for fucking his wife is at fault? I mean...

In this analogy, you have each fucked each other's wives 17 times before and each time it happened, you both accidentally shot between 1 and 6000 innocent people/dogs/squirrels who happened to walk near your front doors

So yes I think it's his fucking fault

Iran stupidly shot down 178 civilians because of a war with Trump. Trump definitely shares the blame and his fanboys shriek when hearing that fact.

But the fact is, this IS war. No one decided to make 6000 US soldiers commit suicide when invading Iraq. No one decided to kill a million middle easterns by creating a power vacuum for ISIS to form. And no one decided to shoot down this airplane of 178 people. But EVERY SINGLE WARMONGER INVOLVED IS RESPONSIBLE because this IS what war is about. The absolute worst atrocities that you can't even imagine, that even the worst stories can't compare to, they are nonsense bullshit accidental side effects that no one can predict because this shit is pure chaos, by definition, always.

Please think about this for even 1 second the next time you support ANY kind of war action (including sanctions, yes). You support the chaos knowing what the result will be. The blood is on your hands and on Trump's hands and indeed on your hands.

Real good questions from Colbert and good answers from Bernie. Worst answer though was the boring skin-deep Trump-exceptionalist answer about why the 2002 AUMF is still being used. The correct answer is that every administration since 2002 has been given that same carte blanche by Congress AND the American people and it needs to stop with Sanders. Trump leaving won't magically stop it at all.

Wait this looks way more than a musou game, looks really good actually. The combat is against 10~ enemies and not 100 so it almost seems like a different genre. More like a typical action RPG, with all the other structure of Persona. Looks serious enough to be P5-2.

It's 100 MINIMUM played casually imo. Maybe 120 if it's your first Persona. It sounds like a crazy number and it's definitely got some padding, but it's surprisingly engaging and fun even beyond the 100 hour mark. I think I only started to get tired and rush the story in the very end. Usually I do that after like 15 hours.

The way I would describe it is like an entire anime series. It takes a long time but you will want to get through it. But you can go at your own pace. No need to binge it all at once. Put it down for a while then pick it back up.

Royal would be my recommendation because it will probably have a lot more stuff, but it is true that the battle theme is different... Wait and see if there's an option to change it I guess.

It matters because if he wins again because of an ability to paint losses as major wins we get another four years of this shit.

He always wins. How do you not get that yet. That's not gonna change the election. The problem is you still seem so concerned with whether Hillary won or not, due to Trump's failures.

And you Hillary people really need to take a self inventory on this situation now. Think really hard about how Hillary would have handled this kind of situation. How she would flex our military. Yes this is a miraculous result that is not due to Trump's virtue, but he and the execs did actually do the right combination of things. Would Hillary? Would Biden or Warren?

This is THE issue of 2020.

You are literally the one doing that here.

I'm just extrapolating history. Whataboutism is claiming she would magically become anti-war for the first time in her entire career.

To be clear I am totally with you guys about voting for anti-war Hillary. I would've loved if everyone voted for such a person, but she didn't exist. And neither does your anti-war Biden or your anti-war Warren. We must even be skeptical of anti-war Sanders who seems to have an itchy trigger finger.

Its nothing more than a libertarian/free market fantasy to expect a UBI to result in healthcare costs going down

When keeping the old healthcare welfare system, yes. Which is why it's NECESSARY for UBI to be a replacement for many existing systems (which are FAR more lucrative to the execs).

UBI doesn't magically solve any broken systems. But it does act as a replacement (even just temporary) for the void that is formed after dismantling the old broken system. So we can actually dismantle shit instead of just complaining about how everything sucks but never doing anything about it because we hate viable solutions.
