    I loved it when America did political violence on German soldiers. Today’s shooter is a patriotic hero engaging in America’s most noble pastime, shooting Nazis.

          There really isn’t. People like to invent nazis to shoot at, but in reality, the number of actual nazis is incredibly low. I don’t even think Trump qualifies, he’s just a narcissist who doesn’t look gift horses in the mouth, provided it puts him on the podium. He’s still dangerous, but not in a Hitler way.

        Are you implying that MindTraveler has a crowd of rowdy far-right insurrectionists lurking outside the capital building?

            MindTraveller doesn’t have a crowd of rowdy far-right insurrectionists lurking around the capital building. That’s how.

            I mean, did you read what I said or what?

                “racism”? Oh, a confederate boy, are you?

                I guess this is worth asking. Do you strongly disagree with the Civil War? There were plenty of calls to violent action then. But maybe you would have told the slaves to “wait longer.”

                You know, keep the peace. Wouldn’t want to be like Trump almost 200 years later.

                    “counter productive,” interesting choice of words.

                    Perfect non-answer, by the way. 10 out of 10.

                    Personally, I think that emancipation was good, even if a war had to be fought for it. I don’t know if this is a hot take or not, but I just don’t like slavery that much. I’m very binary that way: slavery bad, freedom good.

                    Would you like to amend your non-answer, Mr Politician?

                    If your nuance is “there should have been peace talks,” there were. Your strategy failed. What now?
