  • Sadly history shows that no matter the evil, the average footsoldier does not get what’s coming for them.

    Look at what happened to the SS agenta. Hell just look at the Nuremberg trials. We’ve had the chance to eradicate fascism and went easy on them, putting bullshit “international relations” above making sure the scum of humanity with the worst of ideologies is truly gone.

    Like, imagine having a beautiful garden. You look away for a moment and bam, it’s full of weeds, weeds trying to kill off all the flowers and produce. Do you just pull a few weeds, trim the rest back, and call it a day?

    No, you take care of ALL the weeds, and take steps to ensure they don’t come back.


  • Legal liability.

    Newspapers are responsible for what they publish, as libel laws apply. Spread misinformation to millions of people and you’re in deep shit - same reason why Drumpf is going after the BBC right now. Mind you libel only applies if the person or entity committing it is of a standing people would be inclined to believe - a random passersby shouting it thus isn’t libel, but a major publicarion stating it, would be considered as libel.

    Murder specifically has a legal definition, and to be legally called a murderer, one has to be convicted of murder. Not just charged, not just sent in front of a judge, but actually convicted. Even if the evidence presented to the public prior to a trial makes it obvious beyond a doubt, legally you can’t be called a murderer until you’re convicted, therefore the act itself can’t be called murder by the media either.









  • Not being able to golf on his Scotland course, for example.

    He could lie, the UK would most definitely find it out, slap some extra criminal charges on top, and while the US doesn’t have any extradition agreement of US (diplomatic) citizens to the UK (see the case of the cunt who murdered a boy because she “forgot” which side of the road she was supposed to drive on), but there would be an arrest warrant out on him regardless. The moment he lands in UK territory, he’d be arrested and imprisoned.

    Meaning he couldn’t golf at his favourite course.

    This was me for a good three years. Standard condoms were always uncomfortable, to the point of pain, but not once did I consider going larger, thanks to my first girlfriend (our breakup was… less than ideal thanks to her cheating, and she then went on to tell me, and most of our friends, that my size was entirely inadequate, borderline micropenis, which I took to heart for quite a while).

    It took the aforementioned three years and quite a few one-night stands telling me I’m big to even start thinking “hey maybe I need larger condoms”.

    Guys, don’t be like me, if it’s uncomfortable, go check out the many brands that do specifically sized nominal widths for condoms. Each will have a guide on successfully measuring yourself, or offer a sample kit which you can try for the right fit. Don’t ruin your sex life with shitty condom choices.


  • Dumb can be helped. Most people tend to be “dumb” in the sense of lexical knowledge or lacking the understanding of logic, not the ability. Which means they CAN learn to become smarter, even if they require help and appropriate education (something the generic education system can’t provide).

    Perfect example are the three “worst students” in my high school class. They were troublemakers, because they didn’t find the classes engaging, because they didn’t understand them - all because they didn’t understand the basics, as it wasn’t taught to them in a way they could process it. I tutored them for a few months and every. single. teacher. No, I’m not joking, literally every single teacher made comments on their sudden improvements, often even testing them separately, not believing that students who just barely passed for 2-3 years suddenly were getting 80-90% on their tests.

    So yeah, a lack of lexical knowledge is not a major issue for me. I’d definitely date someone who’s attractive but dumb, because the latter can be “fixed”.

    What’s more important in my opinion is their general attitude, approach to life. Are they kind? Are they a good person? How do they treat others - let that be friends, strangers, animals, waitstaff/service workers, etc.?

    Dumb can be fixed, but an awful personality most often can’t.
