There was no excuse whatsoever for Hamas attack on Israelis.
There's no excuse for Israel's use of rape on detainees or turning Gaza into a concentration camp either. |

| The Electoral college will sadly never go away. The GOP wants all the leverage. Right now, I'm predicting Trump will not survive his second term. I think Vance doesn't have enough charisma to get people behind a 3rd term. Luckily, it doesn't seem likely Trump will have enough people who could make ... |

| Non-supporters of LGBTQIA+ culture, or people who don't advocate for LGBTQIA+ folk or pay lip service to them, people who prefer other people who are straight as a general rule, or people who simply don't care about LGBTQIA+ issues - all of these people are supposedly terrible, irreconcilable, mora... |

I believe the letters are a bit excessive.
As much as not interfering with other people's relationships is a social norm, it's not an uncommon behaviour and you seem to be taking an excessively shaming approach. |

| ^^^ I think you are just taking part of what I said and focusing on that and arguing about that. In the original post I made that you are referring to, I was making a broader point, and you have picked up on a part of what I said, which was an example to illustrate the point I was making.
