Your refusal to acknowledge that suggests you're not ready to talk about such adult subjects like, well, an adult.Pulling out short-term is bad, but if there's any hope of improving then they need the stability. So the US pulling out is a good thing overall. See, this is the nuance that your totally "adult" self is missing. --- |

If the answer is no, then pulling out of Afghanistan was bad for the humans that live in Afghanistan.This is typical imperialist bullshit. You invade a land, reap what you want from the land, then purposefully leave a power vacuum and claim they were better off when you were occupying them. Take your disingenuous post and shove it. --- |

Keeping out the taliban is one thing, but instituting actual improvements was something the US was never in it to do. Do you think if the US stayed there for another 20 years that the taliban would magically disappear? It takes more than just occupation to do something like that. Again, the US is not interested in doing something like the marshall plan. --- |

Or are the Taliban good, much better for society than US military presence?Considering that the situation reverts almost instantly after the US leaves means that the situation was not improving, it was just on hold.

On the flip side, there are plenty on the left who think it's okay for terrorists to reign abroad so long as domestic capitalist dirt-bags are called to account. More like we can see that the US intervening isn't doing anything to improve the situation (and often times making it worse). Sure, though, keep hiding behind claims of human rights when it was never about that, neocon. --- |

Also, China will get pissed off about losing their buffer zone and the refugee crisis that will follow. saudi arabia has a horrific human rights record and they fund many of the terrorist groups that we supposedly oppose. It was never about human rights and people are pretending it is about that in Afghanistan because they're neocon who want their forever war. --- |

I was talking about that premise the whole time. You decided to jump in to defend it and now you're claiming that actually you were talking about something else (?). Apparently I'm supposed to read your mind to determine when you've somehow changed the premise in your scattered mind. Don't be silly. --- |

Unfortunately that (COVID would be over if Republicans didn't exist) was never my premise, but feel free to create more strawmen. But to the original point - again, what does what Democrats are doing now connect to what Republicans did? Ruvan22 posted... The post you responded to was about how we are *still* in this mess due to Republican statements/actions etc. How does saying Democrats want schools open refute that? @Ruvan22 Think before the next time you jump in to take over someone's premise. --- |

Its part of the intentions, not just something that happens.Group projects are to teach you how to work on a team. It's all about training future workers, like I said. Clubs are for making a more well-rounded worker and also potentially to boost the reputation of the school (particularly in sports). --- |
| Topic | US sets record for children hospitalized with Covid |
| 1337toothbrush 08/10/21 5:20:24 PM #99 | VipaGTS posted... yes, and part of that is social interaction. You could argue that when it comes to being a worker or working for a company, social skills will go much further than Geometry for many students.Okay, but that doesn't change the fact that the social interaction part of schooling is just incidental. Gather any group of people in one place and there will be social interaction. kingdrake2 posted... it's a double edged sword. with schools open they can learn properly. but they risk getting sick at the same time.It's not a given that kids will learn better offline. --- |

| 1337toothbrush 08/10/21 1:43:12 PM #96 | Cemith posted... No one actually did though, especially in red states. Conservaturds treated a mask like a political stance and mandates for them like their rights were being taken away. And if they did even wear one, it was to shit on Dems, (and they usually wore them incorrectly as well) Democrats kept asking nicely which didn't do shit. We need mandates, and fines for people that don't comply.You're going to fine kids for not wearing a mask? A mandate isn't as powerful as you think it is. Again, many kids being stuffed into small indoor places will overwhelm whatever protection masks provide. --- |

| 1337toothbrush 08/10/21 1:41:07 PM #95 | LightHawKnight posted... No, social interaction is the main point of school.That's cute, but no. There are many ways for a kid to have social interaction without the confines of school. It has become the primary method of social interaction for kids due to how much time they have to spend there, but that's like claiming social interaction is the main point of jobs. The primary purpose of school is to train future workers and it's taken on more and more of a role as daycare as well, particularly with it being more common for both parents to work. --- |
| Topic | US sets record for children hospitalized with Covid |
| 1337toothbrush 08/10/21 8:44:42 AM #88 | LightHawKnight posted... Opening schools is muh economy? Anyways while I prefer kids to not die, studies do show that remote learning is not ideal, and if both sides are pushing for reopening, I will side with the one side that at least enforce a mask mandate whilst the other does literally nothing.School often takes the role of glorified daycare, so without that, parents are stuck having to stay home to take care of kids and supervise. That's the primary drive for reopening schools, to free up parents to go back to work. I'll take the "not ideal" learning situation over kids dying. Did you not pause when you wrote "while I prefer kids to not die"? There is a better way. Just because two shitty-ass parties refuse to pursue it, doesn't mean it shouldn't be pursued, even if one of the parties is far shittier than the other. --- |

And I do this delivering bread, paying mortage (did it while saving/buying my house, too), and monthly bills totaling in the thousands. A lot of those little debbie, mission, Pepperidge farms, and bread men/women you see out there are making money you wouldn't believe, but it's not as glamorous as being a doctor or lawyer, so these jobs are overlooked by many.I'd like to take a delivery of your buns. --- |
