The longer he lives, the more likely it is that he will spread this corruption to the others.
It must be stopped now before it infects the rest of them.

#12 Have a nice night everybody :) in Off Topic
ThorEatsWormsThanks bill that's really nice of you, I had quite the rollercoaster of a day

So I like to airdrop (iphone thing, sends stuff over bluetooth) pictures of dogs to strangers and then watch how they react. Usually I stay anonymous because I think it works better that way. Anyway, today someone airdropped me back a screenshot of notepad with "fuck off." First time it has happened, and I've been considering the discontinuation of my dog-dispersal tactics.

I've got about 21 different dog pictures and they've all been scientifically proven to "put a smile on your face," so I'm not sure what went wrong...

Send more doggos.

NEVER GIVE UP!
NEVER SURRENDER!

Noosaim scared of dogs :(

I was too for a long time. Then we got a beagle puppy and he wouldn't stop chewing on everything.
If you put your hand near him it would quickly end up in his mouth.
I stopped being afraid of dogs after that.

MarxistThe thing that clearly demonstrates that Japanese internment was purely racism and served no actual purpose other than to destroy the lives of a racial minority - is that the territorial governor of Hawaii (Hawaii then not being a state) REFUSED to participate in internment

So what you're saying is that in a time of war the US government decided to waste resources, time, money, and manpower just to ruin the lives of Japanese citizens for no reason other than because they felt like it?
Hawaii didn't refuse to intern Japanese citizens at all. In fact, over 2,000 Japanese citizens were interned in multiple camps across all the Hawaiian islands.
The reason Hawaii didn't intern their entire Japanese population was because they literally made up 1/3 of the island's population and it would have seriously crippled their economy, something that they couldn't afford during a time of war.

MarxistThe Japanese had ABSOLUTELY no way to land troops in California

It's easy to say this when looking back on WWII 70 years later with declassified records and the information we have now. Making assumptions like that in a time of war is exactly how you lose wars.

Japanese internment was necessary in the context of what was happening in WWII.

The Japanese codes had been broken in 1942 by the US.
Imperial Japan had connections to the Black Dragon Society that was established in the US similar to how the US used the US based mob's contacts in Italy to disrupt the Italian war effort.

The US had three options:
1. Do nothing and let the Black Dragons sabotage and spy on us.
2. Identify and arrest all members of the Black Dragon Society operating in the US.
3. Put all Japanese into internment camps.

Option 1 was out immediately. Option 2 would have alerted Imperial Japan that the US knew exactly what they were doing and who they were in contact with. This would lead to Japan changing their codes and the US having a significant disadvantage during the war.

Option 3 was the only solution. Despite it being unpleasant, it would prevent members of the Black Dragon Society from disrupting the US war effort without alerting Japan that their codes had been compromised.

Yes it sucked that so many peoples lives had to be disrupted, but unpleasant things happen in times of war. They were taken better care of than many comparable camps across the world during the war, and they were given reparations after the fact.

All in all, it could have been much worse, but the claims that it was done because of "evil racism" is ignorant of all the facts.

MarxistThe USA's incarceration rate is presently higher than the USSR at the height of the GULAG system - so it's nothing peculiar to Communism. Nations which utilize prison labor extensively will continue to do so no matter what sort of government they're using - hence why Russia still has prison labor complexes. .

Also in the US we utilize prison labor heavily and have since time immemorial - as do many other "capitalist" nations :/ At my job I have the power to call in trustees from the jail to provide menial labor at any time (they will be paid 50 cents an hour). I refuse to do this and as such have gotten some pretty good workouts in lol.

I'm not talking about incarceration rates, I'm talking about imprisoning political dissidents. Every communist nation does this. It is against the law to imprisoning someone in the US for their political opinions.

MarxistIt's hardly a "glaring" problem of a communist economic system - *all* economic systems erect a state edifice to ensure the continuity of that particular system. Try to violate a contract sometime, or sell stuff out of your trunk in a wal-mart parking lot, or produce something that has a patent on it - just to name a few. However, these sorts of laws are treated as natural courses of affairs and so their authoritarian character is ignored.

Are you saying that being fined for selling something without a permit is the same as living under a dictatorship?
If not, then your comparison is pointless.

When a communist nation can exist without prison camps for political dissidents and without a crippled economy that cannot compete with capitalist nations equally, then I will consider it a valid form of government. Until then it is nothing more than a failed ideology that only appeals to the ignorant and lazy.
