If you were dictator, what would be the first policy you enact?

Haha chaotic. I like it @PrivateHell

Lolz@PrivateHell

@PrivateHell "Let's just casually murder a few hundred million people and cause nuclear fallout that will create mass famine and disease for an entire hemisphere. Meh, who cares, we'll do it again if we have to." -You

Not to mention if you nuke Syria, Russia is gonna nuke the ever loving shit out of you. So congratulations, you just triggered a radioactive apocalypse. Be proud of yourself.

@BlueMetalChick never said I would be a GOOD dictator. 🤷‍♂️

@PrivateHell Well at least there's that. You'd be shocked how many people I deal with on a daily basis who think that they're one of the "good guys" when they bray about how America needs to nuke a variety of countries around the world and it's acceptable if we kill some allies in the process. One of my classmates wants to nuke North Korea, to which the obvious response is "You'd kill most of South Korea and they're our allies". His reply is "Yeah but who cares if they're allies they're still just stupid Koreans."

It shouldn't surprise you that this guy only got accepted to university because he's a trust fund baby.

My response was a joke (a little dark humor). Of course I wouldn't just go around lobbing nukes.@BlueMetalChick

@PrivateHell I can't tell these days! It used to be the case where I could pretty reliably tell when people were using dark humor but in the last few years, people have said these things and been serious 🤦‍♀️

@BlueMetalChick I'm pretty right wing (I will proudly admit that), but that doesn't make me a war monger, or a racist or any of the dozens of other things I get accused of being. I'm actually right wing because I believe in the rights and liberties of the individual over the collective.

@PrivateHell Amen

@PrivateHell We'd have to have a more in-depth conversation for me to ascertain whether that's true or not, but on the surface, it sounds like you're describing what's known as paleoconservatism. As opposed to neoconservatism.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout No you don't get to "amen" him. You've argued till you're blue in the face to justify the invasions of both Iraq and Afghanistan, the arming of Saudi Arabia, the illegal occupation of the Gaza by Israel, American involvement in Syria and the sale of illegal weapons to jihadist groups, defended the Yemeni genocide, supported to the unconstitutional drone bombing campaigns in Pakistan, Libya, Niger, and Somalia, and have repeatedly berated those who discourage armed invasion of Venezuela. You're not allowed to "amen" someone who just proclaimed they aren't a warmonger.
