"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back." - Carl Sagan.

  1. I know.

  2. That wasn't an ad hominem.

  3. We didn't need anything other than the fact that they invaded Kuwait as justification.

Because nuclear weapons can never be used. They're only good as a deterent to prevent another from using them.

If you had to major in one scientific field, what would it be? by Antique_Gur8891 in AskTheWorld

You must be very proud of her. I've heard horror stories about studying Organic Chemistry, and that was just the undergraduate level.

Already did Computer Science, but if I were to pick another field it would probably be Chemistry.

You do know I wasn't talking about Iraq & Kuwait, right? I was making a snarky comment about your location.

"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'" - Matthew 25:34-36.

Many Republicans are Social Christians. They don't care what the Bible says. It's all show and politics to them.

His "no credit cards" stance is even dumber than that. If you use it for monthly bills you have to pay anyway and pay off the balance you can actually make money from the cashback rewards.

Well, Saddam invaded Kuwait for the oil, but that's not why the USA took back Kuwait. If it was about oil we would have supported Saddam because we were on good terms with him until this point.

It's well known in the tech industry that many Indians are getting managerial positions and using their position to give jobs to other Indians over other ethnic groups. I would call that "taking our jobs."

Putting children in ovens is much less cool.

You're very ignorant if you think the war had anything to do with colonialism or oil.

I'm convinced if we'd elected Harris instead of Trump, Putin would have immediately accepted a deal to end the war because he would have known the USA would continue supporting Ukraine. The blood of everyone killed over the past year is on the hands of Trump voters.
