    I don’t like either one, but why should the US be the world police for imperialism when the US is one of the most successful empires in history? Kind of amazing the amount of cognitive dissonance. You flipped out when I dared say anything about your job, but you’ve been continually mocking and insulting me the entire time.

    You don’t care about stopping imperialism, you just want your country to have the stronger empire so you can keep your dumb job.

      No shit Sherlock. At that moment, this became entertainment to me. You obviously are an asshat.

      More hilariously though, is how you haven’t been able to add anything to the discussion despite this whole time. Now maybe you’re just trolling me too, but I’m cool with accepting the troll baits now. I’ve given you plenty of opportunity to add a discussion point of some kind of cultural, political, military, economic significance. But apparently the best you got is imperialism and more insults.

      You don’t know shit about this geographical area. You keep trying to pivot to Gaza in a topic about Chinese memes. I’m just trying to see where else you’re going to go.

        Yeah, your job isn’t that more important than people’s lives. Sorry to be the first person to tell you.

        Can’t take the slightest dig, I see. I guess I touched an insecurity.

          Its not my job I’m worried about. Its the metric-fuck ton that’s connected to 60% of the world’s chip production that that island produces. As well as the lives of the citizens of Taiwan who’d be sacrificed upon your platter of ignorance, apathy and nihilism.

              Because jobs are important for keeping people’s livelihoods.

              I’m more shocked that you don’t give a shit about people’s standards of living, their wellbeings, or what they can provide for their families. But you don’t care about anything now do you?


              Do you even have any military friends or family? Do you even have any skin in the game with regards to the geopolitical decisions in this discussion? Or is this all just abstract whatever to you?

                I’m not even going to answer your question about the military bc I don’t think it’s okay to use your loved ones for brownie points on an online argument.

                  Good. You’re beginning to care and recognize how fucking apathetic you’ve sounded this whole time. About damn time you pretended to care about something. Its a good start and I hope you can pretend to care long enough for the next discussion you have rather than immediately reaching for the hurrr-durrr I’m more apathetic than you and therefore smarter button next time.

                  Yes, you want me to lose my job. Gotcha. You hate me and everything about me. It makes you so smart. Tech workers are worthless parasites.

                There is a shortage of nurses, as I mentioned before. I’d prefer people lose their jobs, than to have people die in a war. You’ve stated several times that you think jobs are worth dying for, which, is just kinda sad honestly

                  Lulz. And you change the subject again. What do nurses have to do with shitty Chinese memes?

                  Do you care about Filipino immigrant families like me? The people building up the nurse population of your country? Or the geopolitical issues that we care about?

                  No, just the nurse part. Gotcha. We’re just numbers to you and political talking points.

        I’ve been saying the same points because you haven’t refuted them whatsoever, lol. I don’t think you will, because you genuinely want the US to be a strong empire, and we just will never see eye to eye on that being an acceptable goal for a nation.
