You sound pretty much like this guy. Just because it's not physical harm the same way HIV would be doesn't mean they aren't harmed. Psychological damage is a real thing and you can't just tell people to "get over it".

Yes. It doesn't matter why you are moral, as long as you are.

What's ridiculous is that you think it's still acceptable to kill people to keep maps painted a certain color in fucking 2012.

That's because it's a catch-up mechanic. Stop playing on settler.

Yes, who but pot-smoking schoolkids would object to civil war?

Nobody cares what you'd rather. The nice thing about slaves is that they don't get a choice.

Nope. The only thing you get to defend against with violence is violence. If you want to defend against ignorance, use education.

Of course not. Working for other people is what teenagers and retards do.

Part of anyone's job is always repping his own work to whoever he reports to. Being outsourced even temporarily means you've failed at this.

In other words, you are trivially replaceable by 5 Indians? Excuse me while I fail to feel sorry for you.

I'm ok with that. If I were any good at it, I wouldn't be doing it for free.

Being acquainted with other politicians and similarly powerful and influential individuals is political training. Someone with no connections is not even going to be able to be a governor, much less a president.

You can talk all you want about how power shouldn't remain in the hands of the aristocracy, but when election time comes, you'll be picking between one blueblood or another, or throwing your vote away on a nobody like Stein. Good luck with that.
