I can understand that someone might think communism is a better solution and worth a shot - but what I can’t understand is the China/Russia apologia. Trying to convince people what is plainly happening isn’t is a form of mental illness.

Mostly the people running and modding it are insane.

If there’s a sizeable Jewish population, or probably non-Christian population, I bet they open on Mondays.

I think there’s some willing suspension of disbelief that is required as an element of any question like this. You have infinite money and everyone takes it as face value.

You’re entitled to that opinion. You’re not entitled to misrepresent 70 year old letters to say something they didn’t say.

They’re referring to a political party in Israel not Israel itself.

Is that in a different post or comment I can’t see? Their original still refers to sterilization.

Fair enough sorry - but it’s weird to bother asking for a source and then not caring that the source doesn’t back up the claim being made?

Sorry - does that mean you think contraception and sterilization are the same thing?

Probably should edit your comment from “secretly sterilized” to “allegedly secretly provided contraceptives”.

Being sterilized and being given contraceptives are wildly different things.

Probably should replace the word sterilized with given contraceptives.

They’re wildly different things.
