I suppose. Sometimes people also pick on others as a sort of hobby or just to make conversation.

Like I wouldn't say anything about criticism of Hulk Hogan, but if one of my cousins at a family reunion said something disparaging about my late grandmother's taste in teacups I would ask them to kindly keep it to themselves.

I think we just don't like guns.

I think there's also a degree of picking on someone who can't defend themselves.

Russia did start it, that's why the Minsk Accords were a thing to begin with. You're the one pretending history starts at some politically convenient point.

Ukraine is a distinct nation with its own culture, language, history and art. They should be free to self govern, not be conquered by a neighbor. There is no justification for Russia's invasion, it's a genocide.

Russia started the war and they have the power to end it. That's not 'warmongering' it's the only path to lasting peace. Fuck war, fuck Putin.

What's alarming about that? One of the most common troll behaviors is jaqing off, pretending not to have an agenda when you do.

Regardless, the comment isn't even in the negatives, so for as many down voted more upvoted.

Even in 850 BCE they were genociding the Canaanites.

Fuck you too pal

Yeah, they should have. Congress ended up doing the opposite, forcing him to continue funding. Democrats don't have nearly the party unity that Republicans do around immigration, I think that's why it keeps being leveraged as a wedge issue.

I thought you were saying they were ineffective at enacting their agenda because they didn't use rescission packages.

If we're talking about what you just said I have no quarrel.
