Sometimes they do it because the emails are legitimate and annoying. Or maybe they just want to pretend they didn't see it. You know how I know that :)
That's true. Most abusers don't have millions of people who make excuses for their shitty behavior.
The funny thing is, if I happened to have made this comparison in reference to the US, Russia, China, or Israel I bet you would be reacting pretty differently right now.
I don't know enough about the situation to have a real opinion on the matter. All I'm saying is that what I'm hearing as the justification for Denmark keeping control of Greenland sounds just like the logic that many kinds of abusers use to justify their controlling behavior. It's theoretically possible that it's 100% true in this case but my previous experience with that kind of language says that is unlikely.
"She can leave anytime she wants but she knows what will happen if she does"
Real abusive husband vibes there. Obviously the US should not attempt to take over any part of Greenland but the argument you're making sounds more like a hostage situation than anything else.
If you want a real hot take try this one; cats are stupid and so is almost all content involving them. The vast majority of it comes across like it was made by a barren old maid who never got over the fact that she couldn't have children so she both humanizes and infantilizes a predator that barely tolerates her presence. It's a real bummer to watch.
You say that like Reagan had some grand economic plan. He was an idiotic actor very similar to Trump. It's true that tons of terrible policies can be traced back to his presidency but he wasn't the mastermind of much of it in the same way that Trump doesn't have a coherent plan now. They are both good examples of dumb, self serving outsiders being given too much power and listening to the wrong people.
It's supposed to be (O)ne (R)ich (A)sshole (C)alled (L)arry (E)llison. Saying named throws the whole oracle thing out and then you might as well use more fun names like decrepit ass-goblin, or world champion cum wrangler to describe him
I remember what it was like to believe that people made rational decisions when it comes to voting. I don't get how you still think that when we're coming up on 2026 though.
Have we forgotten Obama's 2008 campaign? He disproved the theory that racism was more powerful than platform but here we are saying the same things 20 years later. Put a progressive on the ballot, no matter their race or gender, and see what happens.
It's not like this conventional "wisdom" has been winning elections since then anyway. Why cling to it?
