Holy sh*t! How stupid can a person be? These guys have already said they will implement Sharia law in Afghanistan, and they will not stop until it’s the law for the whole world.

I think this is what happens when a gin-soaked brain is obsessed with fake impeachments and chasing down phantom white supremacist movements, while ignoring the real world around them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole ripping paper behind Trump was nothing more than WWE level showmanship. Yeah it was about defeating Trump, but it was never about actually doing anything more than maintaining the status quo. These people are just as deranged, they're just better at hiding it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until you’re willing to die or kill for it, you don’t have any business telling a place half a planet away how to conduct their affairs. and accepting those refugees is more on our government than theirs.

I'm not advocating for more war or invasions of Afghanistan, but hell yes I'll tell the taliban they're backwards pieces of $&!# that abuse women and children and men who don't want to rape and praise Allah like them. What is "our" business. At this point "we" are a global civilization. Yes, Afghanistan is my business, just like Xinjiang or Yemen, because we are one people in this modern world despite the efforts of tribalism to separate us when we're connected in a way that makes us one tribe.

No! It was done in a very deliberate and orderly way. Tony Blinken says so. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9895577/Blinken-blames-inability-Afghan-forces-Taliban-takeover-GOP-says-buck-stops-Biden.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s only when the west got interested in them the last 20-25 years that a bunch of self-righteous privileged westerners felt that they had the right to tell middle eastern countries how they should live.
