Wearing seat belts doesn’t mean you assume you’re going to crash your car… it’s just sensible risk management.

You’re something else.A reasonable middle ground implies a reasonable party on both sides of the conversation, and right now there aren’t two reasonable parties in the USA.
- Replying to @Inhumansoflate1I see the Venezuelan flag there… how is the United States responsible for the destruction of Venezuela?
- Replying to @GeorgeTakeiProtect people from what? You do realize that the coordinated response to covid nuked the global economy. Covid is now in the rear view mirror, but the fallout from the response continues to damage the world in many ways. War. Famine. Etc. 🖖
- Replying to @queenie4rmnolaCollective guilt isn’t a thing. It’s atavistic to pretend that it is.
- Replying to @RossKneeDeepThe fact is that the migrants are moving to large metro areas, which means blacks are disproportionately affected by the disruption.
- Replying to @_nomadic_soulNo one can survive without other people. As Milton Friedman said, it takes a thousand people to make a pencil.
- Replying to @Inhumansoflate1In the United States, most people work in small businesses. Cubicle culture is not the norm.
- Replying to @AmazonEve and @BretWeinsteinJudaism is a religion. Neither Trotsky, Lenin, Stalin, or any other Bolshevik leader practiced Judaism. They practiced a weird modern religion that had been pioneered by Germans.
- Replying to @GSpellcheckerOther than a few leftist-run cities, the us is safer than the uk. Our 2nd Amendment is based on ancient British law respecting the right of self-defense. But you lost most of your masculine dna in the world wars and no longer have the stones to stand up for yourselves.
- Replying to @hasanscreams and @Inhumansoflate1Is the United States responsible for the current regime in Venezuela?
- Replying to @michaelianblackNobody knows the truth. The best you can do is to optimize the predictive power of your assumptions. If your assumptions keep leading you to make failed predictions, change your assumptions.
- Alex Jones would endorse any halfway decent person running against Trudeau… said endorsement is not some kind of unique stigma. Trudeau is not fit to be the leader of a free country.
- Replying to @queenie4rmnolaI’m not talking about feeling guilty, I’m talking about being guilty. You are not responsible for what other people do, and if someone holds you responsible for something you didn’t do, you are wronged.
