      The US Navy is responsible for protecting all maritime shipping regardless of whether it comes to or from the U.S. It’s why the Navy is so freakin big, and why pirates are more or less history. Once the U.S. decides to say fuck it, which will probably happen soon, the globalized world will suddenly be very different when maritime shipping becomes more dangerous.

        You label them as terrorists. Others label you the same way. If you fail to see how your global actions are never in the wrong, you have worse common sense than North Korean propagandists

            You aren’t even human in my opinion anymore and my meds don’t let me talk to inanimate objects.

            You had me until this. This is always a bad deal. You can respect someone’s humanity while disagreeing with them vehemently. You can even think someone (terrorists, for example) is too great a threat to live while still not forgetting that they’re humans with similar mechanics to you.

            Don’t sacrifice your compassion for the evil of others.

                I said I agreed with everything else you said. Well, I’m sure some would consider you a terrorist for posting super gay memes, but fuck them.

                Those Seals aren’t mere objects and neither is the lemming with shit takes you were talking to.
