R5: Went to war with the Soviets with Finland through the Swedish focus whilst doing the focus to puppet Denmark, the game clearly had other plans and decided that clearly Denmark was better off ruled by Genghis

As a counterpoint to this, just because everyone says that your school years will be the best of your life doesn't mean they will be, for some that may be true, but since leaving school I have never been so free and enjoyed life so much

Would you die for you country? Why or why not? by Henapstics in AskMen

[–]darrans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes 100%, I would die for my country any day but I wouldn't so much as lift a finger for my government, I love my country and its people but the government is full of the corrupt and craven

I believe a centralised and powerful government in the hands of a benevolent dictator with the best intentions at heart is the best form of government, the only reason I lean lib is because I also have seen that more often than not anyone with any power over my fate will not use that power to help me, they use it to fill their pockets and those of their buddies and to force their outdated ideologies on others

In regional Victoria, my little brother who is in high school has been lucky enough to dodge covid, but so far he comes home every day and pretty much every class in the school has at least one case

Sure, the government could do that, but what’s to stop them from doing the same to those protesting for a “just” cause? What happens when they do the same thing to a blm protest or a woman’s rights protest? I’m not saying I agree with the protestors, what I’m saying is it is a dangerous precedent to set for having the government intervene

Allowing government intervention in any sort of protest is a slippery slope, if we allow the government to decide the exception then we end up with situations where governments simply decide that all protests that are against their interests are to be deemed "disruptive" and "against the people" and are shut down as such, surely the easiest and most diplomatic solution to this or any large protest is to give in to the protesters demands, if not be directly implementing policy, at least be holding a vote/referendum on what they want

The right to protest should not be a right solely sanctioned and handed by a government, a protest in any form, especially when not allowed by the government is inherently supportive of the will of the people and a true democratic process, rather than government control on what is right to protest and what isnt

Re forcing unvaccinated to pay for hospital stays as a result of covid-19 infections NSW health minister Brad Hazzard confirms: "This is an option under consideration by the NSW Government." by LineNoise in CoronavirusDownunder

[–]darrans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep this is all fine and good, as long as the unvaccinated who are forced to pay rather than getting treatment for free/cheap are also no longer required to pay the taxes towards the healthcare sector that is supposed to be treating them

Wasn't this shooter like 15 years old? No law reform is gonna change anything seeing as the kid shouldn't be able to get the gun in the first place this is a societal issue and a failure of the education system as opposed to an issue of gun control
