Trump is quick on Twitter when Islamic Terrorists attack ...

But says nothing about the Russians using chemical weapons ... 🤔

He has common sense and see Islamic terrorist is a much bigger threat for American citizens (and all over the world) than Russia
@SW-User The point I'm making transcends any cultural context or specifics of these cases.

One rarely has widespread violence against women and girls without corresponding criminal pathology close to home. One can generalize that to any forms of violence. Why? This pathology is ontological, it's a state of being. It manifests everywhere the sociopath goes.

So when I read of child trafficking doubled down into child abuse and homicide my gut is that there is a family and community antecedent for that. No doubt. And poking into it a bit that seemed to be confirmed.

You can take my comment in multiple ways. One is the defense of brown girls which I can see taken as a deflection. But the deeper point is that as long as misogyny and violence against women is tolerated as "culture" in these communities then everyone is at risk. That's the deep level of bullshit to be called out.

@CopperCicada Well we are in agreement there -I am curious where your belief that there is a 'family and community antecedent' was confirmed. As I've suggested I believe the grooming, rape, gang rape and racial vilification of thousands of girls within one town by a gang of pedophiles was only possible within a 'perfect storm' (albeit one replicated across the country)

The misogyny underlying it is surely a many headed beast affecting everyone coming into contact with it

Whether one is talking honour killings or the inability of the British to sucessfully prosecute a single case of FGM over decades
@SW-User I did some diving and found reference to a Muslim woman's group documenting missing girls in that community.

But to the root point, this conduct can't be defended as "culture" without endangering everyone. And this is where the complicity comes in. One can't engage in such a project (defending culture) without complicity.

Of course my world is so strange in comparison. I can't understand.

Comrade, we do not say such things in this country now, or Gina Haspell will reopen one of her secret prisons she loves so much for waterboarding and other torture.
WoodyAq · M
@windinhishair Just as long as she's only waterboarding people of colour ...

In any case, her CIA colleagues say the rap against her is unfair, because "she was just following orders."

Yes, they literally used those words ...

@WoodyAq They must have been looking over the transcripts from the Nuremberg Trials.

So the argument so far is, as long as you're legally in the country and you aren't as big a threat as Islamic terrorism, no comment is required.

russia got him by the balls... when he decounces them they will release the pee porn video of him
WoodyAq · M
@RedFlower Ugh. Not into watersports... I'll wait for the Stormy Daniels tape ...

Or someone shoots up the place on their own soil.

he will nuke them instead.
Really makes you wonder what Putin has hanging over his head. Even Russian Hookers pissing on the POTUS isn't enough right now to get him booted so what does he have that is even bigger than that.
WoodyAq · M
@Pitchblue Yeah. His silence on matters Putin does really make it seem like the Russians have him by the short hairs.
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
Not many Russia’s are illegal immigrants.
WoodyAq · M
@MrBrownstone Swell. Not many illegal immigrants use nerve gas ...
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@WoodyAq what weapon they use is irrelevant.🙄
WoodyAq · M
@MrBrownstone What, are you from the NRA? You need nerve gas to hunt deer or something?
SW-User
Politicians uh?
WoodyAq · M
@SW-User Trump ran as not just another politician ... And he isn't.

There's hypocrisy... And then there is Trump.

@Emosaur Yes, and there is a limit to how many threats Trump can deal with. After Islamist terrorists and the plague of Mexican nannies, that's it ...
