    So if your country was being invaded you’d just lie down and take it? Perhaps even say thank you? You’re naive to think that talking will magically solve things when you’re against an enemy who clearly doesn’t have the same moral standards as you. They’re attempting to take what they want with force, they’ve already demonstrated that they don’t care for niceties like negotiation.

    Imagine trying to talk it out with a mugger. They don’t care what you want to talk about. They want your money.

    Every downvote is a vote for death, hatred, and suffering of innocents

    This makes you sound like those moronic Facebook posts that say things like “1 like = 1 prayer, ignore = you hate puppies”. It’s not a good look.

      Would I rather be alive and in a position to negotiate my freedom than dead? Gee, what a hard que–oh wait.

      Seriously, I don’t get this. I don’t understand how people have become so hateful and spiteful and blood-thirsty. It’s Fox News, isn’t it? Right-wing, jingoistic, hyper-patriotic, “I can’t understand the second amendment because I think only half of it applies” bullshit.

      Go find a heart. Compassion. Love. Prayer does nothing. War kills. Love, compassion, understanding, patience, and peace is what moves the world.

        I already gave you the mugger analogy, so one of three things is happening.

        1. You didn’t read what I said.
        2. You don’t understand what I said.
        3. You are purposefully ignoring what I said.

        In any of these cases, it appears you are not debating in good faith. As such, I will no longer engage. Goodbye.

          No, it’s you who do not understand because your brain is wired with violence and hatred and is unable to see past any of that to any possibility of peace. You are a relic of an ancient time of hatred and bullshit and you need to either rewire your brain and evolve, or stay silent and let people who want peace on this fucking planet be the adults we are.

        Please go to Ukraine and test this routine on Russian soldiers, it will go really well for you, like that ad of Kendall Jenner solving racism with a Pepsi
