  • like fleeing Somalia, many others did the same.

    Those with the ability and money can leave, but some don’t have these things. So what about them? Does that make them evil?

    I don’t care if there is a minority of decent southerners, just like I don’t care if there were decent officers in the wehrmacht

    Because a fisherman who happens to live where they were born, is the same as soldier who chose to join an army with very explicit political goals.

    Nonsense.






  • No, but they originated from the South.

    FFS, how do you think Jim Crow ended?

    If Southern anti-segregationists and civil rights groups had not stood firm against discrimination, Jim Crow would have never ended.

    “Southerners” is not a synonym for ex-slaveowners and segregationists. Denigrating the entirety of the South for the actions of a few is gross.

    Also, your remarks have lead me to believe that you seem to think racism simply never existed in the North, which is just an entirely laughable concept.

    Some of the most violent resistance to the civil rights movement, was in Chicago, a lovely Midwestern town as you might put it.

    Even if they were to completely back out now, that doesn’t look great, but is still probably not enough data to show a trend.

    Now that many are reliant on “just-in-time” strategies, supply lines are not nearly as resilient to large trade fluctuations as they used to be, but the spike does mostly match the dip, and could be simply explained as exporters just trying to beat the tariffs by sending product early.

    Now if the weeks after are also low… That’s another story.

    Do you think that there is a dire shortage of tools for murder, and only the modern defense industry is sustaining the strained supply?

    Israel, Russia, and Ukraine sure seem to think so. None are producing enough munitions domestically to satisfy themselves.

    Less weapons made still means less weapon used.

    Yes you did. Crimes done by government are the State’s most closely guarded (if not well kept) secrets.

    EDIT: Downvoters already forgot all about Edward Snowden, Chelsea Manning, and David McBride, etc.

    All of whom leaked evidence of crimes committed by their governments and were prosecuted for “revealing state secrets and endangering national security”.

    OK, I guess we should stop harvesting wheat and making flour because it could possibly be used to support a genocide, but don’t even bother thinking about stopping the manufacture of the bombs being dropped.
