Honestly I find him incredibly lucky because recently Ive seen US diplomats trying to actually have talks with China and under a different administration (cough cough this guys own party) this guy could become a bargining chip or PR example of US disrespect. HK could have made this a lot harder for him.

Your tax dollars at work. Fuck you if you have student loans, we'd rather spend our money making our shareholders rich though genocide.

Well if you target Hamas but bomb an innocent family of five killing three, you probably just made two new Hamas members. Especially if the parents didn't survive, they know exactly whos gonna 'take care' of those orphaned kids.

The gaza strip is 140 square miles. No ones dropping years worth of munitions on the west bank right now. All those bombs that added up to more than a year of the US bombing Afghanistan are falling in 140 square miles. You know where the bombs are dropping. Lets keep on the Afghanistan comparison. They have a quarter million square miles and got in one year what Gaza got in two weeks. Afghanistan has over 1700 times the area of the Gaza strip.

It reminds me a lot of the situations where Law Enforcement Officers won't follow along for what they know is not right when everyone else is doing it, despite knowing that if they leave that's one less person to stand up to the unethical, there is a point when you can no longer even associate with the group because of the very real blame you'll start to share, and rightfully so. And in the case of LEOs if you're not going along with the rest of the gang, you could very well be in danger.

B and E, classic combination.

Defeated and hopeless mostly. Almost the same as I felt funding the war in the middle east after looking at the casualties and reading testimonies from US soldiers. It's long weighed heavily on me that half of every dollar I'm required to pay to the government is used to kill people who have nothing to do with me, especially as someone whose worked since he was 16. The war in the middle east was met with the largest protests in US history at the time and nothing changed. We then elected a democrat who was given a noble peace prize, he kept the war going and killed many civilians with drone strikes. I don't even own a house and the rate at which my savings are stacking up, there's not much I can even afford to do. Welcome to the machine.

Looking at the history of the any of the Clandestine US orgs should probably remind us these people will do literally anything that they can, like give people LSD in an attempt to control their mind, or put microphones in Russian cats.

Basically just 4chan pretending to be a really racist SEO firm.

Limiting how many positive yearly reviews managers are allowed to give out. Not M$ but glad it's finally in the news. The employees find out how the system works fast, no matter how secret they tried to keep it.

I agree, as much as I don't like old politicians as a rule of thumb because by and large that's where the problems are, but my bigger problem is Nancy stopped representing the people a long time ago and now more closely represents shareholder and investors, like herself and her husband.
