      It’s like the trolley problem, except instead of the other track having fewer people, it has more, and it just loops back around to run over the people on the first track anyway. We should have sent the trolley on a completely different route decades ago.

        Strawmen belong in fields, not comment sections.

        Also: does every ml user have an allergy to pragmatic problem solving?

          “pragmatic” problem solving is killing all undocumented migrants to solve the housing and work shortages in the US.

          Pragmatic problem solving was the excuse for the necessity of the Holocaust. Pragmatic problem solving is making black people count as two thirds a white person to appease fascists.

          Pragmatic problem solving is a liberal appointing Hitler chancellor so commies don’t get power and Nazis stop doing violence.

          Pragmatic problem solving is behind the worst human atrocities. Let’s not pretend it’s ever been good.

        I mean, it’s not like there’s any other viable candidate. I don’t like the two party system but it’s what we have and by voting any other way than Harris, it gives advantage to Trump.

          Her shitty policies and attitude toward the genocide of people in the Levant is what’s giving trump an advantage!

          Her shitty attitude towards people calling on her not to support the genocide is what’s giving trump an advantage.

          She had it in the bag when she called him weird but you can always rely on a democrat to steal defeat from the jaws of victory!

          And you know for sure that democrats are going to turn on minorities and leftists once she loses the election rather than face up to the fact that they did everything themselves to avoid winning it.
