Dohohoho. Much of Bay 12 goes onto 4chan's /tg/. Not all of 4chan is /b/, the worst and most immature part of it.

If you don't know anything at all about the issue being discussed then I'd suggest looking it up rather than scrabbling for a way to show how much smarter you are than liberals, thanks.

This is what you get when you let all these 4-chan robots join a forum.

We apologize for nothing.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Every country is 'pretty shit' if you dig around in their history enough, the USA included.

So what? I know being a 'victim' is super special nowadays and a well sought after status (note all the absurd tort culture in the USA), but I don't see how it's productive to bring up grievances from over 100 years ago into modern political rhetoric.

Yeah, the USA is pretty shit for having slavery, while talking a lot of rhetoric about 'freedom' and 'individual liberties' and 'self-ownership' but this was a normal thing, for the era. History is history, let's move on to tomarrow, ffs.

Yes, let's move on to tomorrow by acknowledging that we still have many problems that we had a hundred years ago, and try to fix them, ffs.

Yeah, but now that organization sees everyone on the outside as a direct threat. Effective change of the Army has *always* came from either the top, or within.

So get rid of the army, and indeed the military as a whole.  It's a cancerous tumor on a free society, that actively destroys and degenerates the body.

It's a job. Do you really want to put hundreds of thousands of people out of a job?

Same way we get rid of coal: re-train them for productive, socially useful, endeavors that they find amenable.  The soldiers AND the murder industry that equips them.

Or, hell, given that they already are being paid to do nothing of social worth, instead of paying them to murder brown people, pay them to sit at home and not murder brown people.  It's still a net gain.
