It’s not even about the moral issue, although I think murdering your political opponents is wrong. Just think it through practically. Killing Trump doesn’t stop project 2025. There’s going to be quite a few names on that list if you want to solve this situation through violence.

You have a process to prevent this from happening right now, the same one that prevented it last time. Ironically this attempt will likely just make things worse assuming there is no retaliatory violence from the other side.

The whole situation is super fucked up either way. I wish you all the best for your country, it seems like it’s going to be pretty bad for a while at least.

Yes which is why I think he should be prosecuted for his crimes. If we go down the road of extra judicially killing anyone who you think is a terrorist then what kind of society do you think that will lead to?

Ok, a good chunk of people think Biden is corrupt so by your logic they should shoot him too? I hope I don’t have to spell out where this leads and why it’s a terrible idea.

Why do our brains hate us?

Yeah I agree with this. The right thing is to try and learn from the situation, what could you specifically have done differently regardless of the behaviour of other people? I think in this situation if someone that’s not your manager is trying to give you work your best recourse is probably to go to your own manager rather than yelling at the person.

As others have already said though, probably not a good idea to use anger or spite as a motivator for anything. Learn what you can from the situation and then do what’s best for you. In this case if this situation has blocked your progress and enjoyment at your current workplace it’s probably best to move on. Take what you learned and apply it going forward so you can better handle the situation if it comes back up again.

I don’t know but I’ve heard he hangs around a lot.

Your suggestion that that is the “modern position of Taiwan” fails to mention that that is the position of one political party that’s had power for less than a decade and whose leader got 6.5% more than a party with a different view back in January.

You mean the leader who when elected, the CCP fired ballistic missiles all around Taiwan? Yes I didn’t mention that because it’s not relevant, maybe you’ve forgotten but that’s kind of how democracies work. It’s the position of Taiwan and has been for a while now.

I am sure you worry about your safety - I would suggest that being told you are a pawn in a geopolitical game for a dying empire should be pretty scary.

And I would suggest being a CCP apologist is pretty pathetic, it seems for you being the pawn of a dying empire is just a way to pass the time online. Good for you I guess.

As long as it cannonises Darth Jar Jar I’m on board.

You… I’ve seen you… you are the one from my dreams

Well, you could always close your eyes

And probably some pretty good games

I definitely disagree with this take but I think I see where you’re coming from. The sequel trilogy was a mess and I think that’s being quite generous but we wouldn’t have gotten something like Andor under Lucas I don’t think.

That’s fair, I think you’re right that it’s subjective. I think Disney managed to pretty much kill the main Star Wars movies at least for me. That said, we also got some pretty great stuff that we definitely wouldn’t have gotten otherwise so it’s not all bad. It was really sad to see LucasArts gutted and EA get exclusive rights to the license for a while though.

But did you know Biden is almost 4% older than Trump?

I was expecting something environmental related from the headline like an outbreak or something but no…

You know what I would consider a dangerous escalation? Bombing a children’s hospital you fucking sick fucks. We need to lift these restrictions on Ukraine immediately.

Yeah, I don’t live in the US but if Trump gets in there’s a decent chance it will directly put my family in danger. I have no control over that though so I try not to think about it too much.

None needed but I think there is a new mRNA vaccine being developed now. Your point remains though because it’s all moot if we don’t have doses when we need them.

Well, I’d love to say I disagree with you but I think even just the last few years would prove you right. Let’s just hope we don’t have any outbreak that means we have to be at the mercy of other people’s psychosis again.
