Re: Afghanistan
The obvious solution to the ‘debacle’ of the Afghani military not engaging the Taliban is for us to do the fighting for them. Or to tell them what to do and how to do it and force them to do that. Or to supply them with more and better equipment than the Taliban had and force them to use it. It’s a...

Re: Heat Wave
Right now, the energy coming in to the earth's systems is larger than the amount going out. That’s one way to put it, but along those lines, one thing that the denier crowd should consider is that we’ve been taking stored energy that required millions of years to accumulate, concentrate and park on...

Re: Afghanistan
Blame? He's just stating the hard facts. We wasted upwards over a trillion over the last two decades training and arming the Afghans who, at the end of the day, had zero interest in fighting for freedom. Not sure how that's Biden's fault. There is a difference between zero interest in fighting and ...

Re: Afghanistan
Regardless, Afghan Security Forces weren’t willing to fight any longer past US involvement. There’s no lie in pointing that out. You just watched it happen in real time. Hey pissboy. Even your own disgraceful rag has abandoned that drivel. Focus. “To accuse our Afghan allies of not fighting hard en...

Re: Afghanistan
I didn’t see you point out actual lies in Biden’s speech, Ajax. Biden's statement that the Afghans weren't willing to fight was a lie. Over 50,000 Afghans have died fighting the Taliban in the last couple years . Source that. Research by Brown University estimates losses in the Afghan security forc...

Re: Vaccines and therapeutics
Edited to add: But what has this got to do with 'Vaccines and Therapeutics'? Nothing. But I could also ask Cultellus why masks are completely ineffective against viral particle transmission, as he claims, or if vaccination seems to reduce the possibility and/or severity of infection, but he doesn’t...

Re: Cancel Culture
Didn’t Republicans just try to cancel a whole election because they didn’t like the outcome?

Re: Are Mormons credulous?
Two thoughts on this. 1. I’ve never known a time when wanting ready-made responses to anything sat better in my mind than the chance to explore, 2. Religion always seemed to create more incoherence than coherence, with regard to anything about life (as example, just mentioned in another thread - wh...

Re: Are Mormons credulous?
Religion is attractive not only for the comprehensive worldview it provides, but also, in part, because it provides believers ready-made responses to everyday situations so that such moments of self-reflexivity can be kept at a minimum, thus granting life a relative sense of ease or coherency. Two ...
