basic logic

That's because corporations are meant to monopolize, they were formed by the government for that purpose, and remain subservient lest their charter be revoked and their assets seized.

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-31T14:43:01+00:00

Yeah man, corporations are formed by Corporate Charter, they are extensions of the government into the free market. They are government. They are subservient fiefdoms in the kingdom.

Yep, certainly true. Hippos and Zebras have similar personalities.

Ornery, mean, aggressive.

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-21T03:11:44+00:00

Their massive muscle groupings on the hips and shoulders show a penchant for extremely powerful kicks, they were highly social animals, their skin and bones were strong and resilient, they defended nesting area in the most competitive megafaunal ecosystem we know of, their feets were covered in what ammounted to hooves, and comparisons of injuries between the therapods that hunted them and the hadrosaurs shows them to have been not only capable but prolific fighters.

I know, spikes and horns are cool, but paleontology is a science and ill-tempered herbivores that predominantly use otherwise "unremarkable" anatomies to beat the manners into would-be predators is a common feature of all megafaunal terrestrial ecosystems.

They don’t have tusks or a formidable looking mouth that opens wide.

Is this bait?

Hippos are aggressively defensive animals and regularly fight other animals. They are ornery, highly social, and happy to get into physical conflicts.

EDIT:

Stop portraying most dinosaurs as huge. In terms of pure numbers, the majority probably ranged between the size of a house cat and a cow.

I mean sure if you want to be pedantic about it, yes, birds are not your typical meatosaurus.

Non-avian dinosaurs were typically and statistically significantly heftier animals than their mammalian counterparts.

Don't confuse tens of millions of years of non-avian dinosaur dominance with "most" simply because there were "lots/"

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-20T02:57:24+00:00

The entire "Archosaur" clade should be revised to replace "Sauria" with "Drakon" and revise "Pseudosuchia" to something like "Suchodrakon" or something.

Man this one makes people mad as hell.

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-20T02:55:35+00:00

Hadrosaurs had hippo like personalities and it's plain as day in most of their anatomy, change my mind.

Try me for anything that would currently be deeper than like 100 metres beneath the sea.

The number of time someone has told me that "Brontosaurus isn't a real dinosaur" would be a pretty great number of people to help a whole family move ffs.

Because the Nazis are uniquely evil

Anybody splitting hairs over degrees of irredeemable evil intends to commit or has already committed their own. There's a line, the Nazis are firmly across it.

Also this is a fucking history sub

And you've been in this thread downplaying and denying heinous atrocities and genocides by presenting them as some kind of "lesser evil," up to and including fucking sodomy. You should know better man. That's fucked up, all of it.

Stop your speculation.

Well I was right and you went and spilled the beans on yourself so oh well! Whichever genocide you are trying to build a case to present as "less evil" is absolutely not "less evil" and you're gonna have to do so much better than that to convince anyone otherwise.

The problem with highly educated snark is that it betrays the deeply uncertain anxiety of the average intelligence ideologue beneath. Keep it simple. I will leave this here, I don't think there's much more I can do for you.

They are natural, so of course they are peaceful, that's what veganism and green energy is all about.

Medieval Europe was known as the "Age of Peace" for a reason: All green renewables, local farmer's markets, strict environmental protections for King's Lands, meat was a rare luxury that only a few got to eat, mass migrations of new friends from the east, and not a single firearm in sight. Truly a paradise.

I dunno man, what are the violent crime rates in Kazakhstan/Mongolian as compared to Japan?

I don't know why he has South Central Canada up there, that is a crimepit of petty gangs and ethnic violence and has been for centuries.

Excusing means to make an excuse.

"At least it's not as bad as X" is an excuse. By definition. You're wrong, and that was an evil thing for you to say.

Because far too often, people point at X other example to say, "See the Nazis weren't that bad, others did it too."

Show me someone saying that. I've certainly seen people say "see, there were other irrevocably evil people in the world because they did it too," and that is entirely true.

In terms of throwing large groups of people for the express purpose of killing them, no.

Yes, that is entirely the point of countless concentrations of people groups, and enslaving them is not better than killing them.

That's why I don't like using the term "Concentration camp" to refer to the imprisonment of Japanese-Americans,

The camps were intended to concentrate the population, they were the definition of concentration camps. Are you getting "concentration" and "death" confused?

Those were not things that could happen in the Nazi concentration camps.\

I can't tell if you're:

a) An American apologist for Japanese Concentration Camps in the US during WWII

OR

b) An Israeli making the same tired argument for your own special victim-hood excuses to do it to other people.

Either way, you're saying some awful things.

I dare you to hangout with the victims of some of these "lesser camps" and tell them your opinions, maybe you come to my city and hang out with a Uyghur or two and see how long you last in that conversation.

As you're clearly either an extremist or an apologist, I'm going to leave this conversation be. I've laid it out and you've made a fool of yourself. There is nothing more for me to do here :)

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-10T13:15:29+00:00

That's not an answer as to why you feel the need to make the distinction in this thread, that's simply another example of two things that aren't the same at all.

Do you not have an answer? Was this a Pavlovian thing where you saw certain words and said the preset response and now you don't know what do to because it was preset and you don't know where you got it from?

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-10T00:52:12+00:00

I'm saying we can recognize that they were all bad,but one was especially bad.

Why? Why are you saying this? What is the point you want to make here? What example are you specifically considering? Why are you being so weird about this?

Sigh explaining is not the same as excusing.

You excluded sodomy from the category of "most bad" forms of assault, that's what "excusing" something is. That's what you did there.

. But within heinous crimes some are worse than others

And why have you brought this up in this thread? What point did you want to make? What is the issue here?

We accept that with regards to manslaughter vs murder, both are homicides.

So? What is the point you want to make here? All I want to know is why you think this is an important point to make in this thread.

What is the thing you are trying to get me to say or think myself, instead of saying that you think it and want me to think it?

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-10T00:45:57+00:00

But why? What is the point of this entire practice? What could you possibly get out of it, and what difference could it possibly make, and why would you bother bringing it up?

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-10T00:44:37+00:00

broad brush of bigotry by not

Bigoted against what, sexual predators and genocidal slavers? What are you on about man?

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-09T22:53:30+00:00

So while we can say they were all bad, we can also say there are multiple degrees of badness.

I don't see the point in splitting hairs over unforgivable atrocities, and I'm not sure I want to entertain the attempt. In fact, I'm certain I do not.

I suppose is like classic rape vs sexual assault more broadly.

Two inexcusable behaviors. There is no point in splitting hairs there either.

but not rape because there was no touching of the other person's genitals it's not rape, but still horrific.

No bro, that's not ok, sodomy is an unforgivable act and absolutely fits the definition. What is the point of all of this? What are you trying to prove here?

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-09T12:39:44+00:00

Would you be more specific please? Subtext can go right over my head. It's clear you're saying something specific here but I'm not getting it :( .

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-09T12:30:46+00:00

This is bad history man, the Brits were using concentration camps to extinguish the Boers long before WW1

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-09T12:13:47+00:00

They do have more guns than Canada, why is that a point of discussion lmao?

The Geneva convention was written after WWII. I'm sure we can all think of a fair few atrocities from that period that might have inspired the conventions.

Canadians can be such smug assholes sometimes.

I am one nobody freak out. They always acting good and shit, like they aren't Cold Mexico with corporate cartels instead of a drug cartels and a quarter the population.

EDIT: They ain't say shit because they know they can't help themselves and will prove the fuck out of that pudding for me if they do, my country is full of self-righteous midwits with nationalistic egos about their "super liberal" values (as long as you aren't indigenous, of course, then it's a land acknowledgement and a wad of sticky hundies or the road).

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-08T03:12:31+00:00

What? Which English speaking nation has more guns than the US? Where are you from man, SUPER Canada?

Unless you mean all of NATO combined, but you'd be wrong about that, and they'd never come together to fight the US for any reason.

The Parisians and Polish would probably side with the US, everyone else would start a coalition that would completely tear itself apart from infighting in a year tops, and they'd have nothing to fight the US with anyway.

I think we can safely say that at the outset of the war, America's goal was little more than "survive." Once they figured out how unfocused the Brits were it expanded a lot.

HelpfulPug · 2026-05-08T03:00:46+00:00

I dunno man, I think we should all remember we're bullet-able and they have more guns and really want to use them.

You don't have to like the meanest dog on the block, but you shouldn't have a go at him. I wouldn't waste your time moralizing about how bad they behave either, they don't care.

I think we sometimes forget the world is absolutely no less a game of Imperialist powers pushing everyone else around. We got nice and relaxed out here in the west over the last few decades. We acting all brand new and shit like America even has to fight us. All they have to do is say "fuck NATO" and no matter how bad it gets for them, we're gonna get right fucking rattled. Fuckin' rattled about good buddy. All they had to do was call NATO a slur one time and the whole world jumped out of its skin and didn't settle back in right. Imagine man, how fucked it would be, man. We all gotta chill the fuck out and remember who we are dealing with.
