Well people with connections to the goverment need a way to launder money.

That is true we need to fix the problem. So in your analogy you would’ve stopped giving the person pain medication?

And how is the person crippled by pain supposed to stand, walk or excercise without pain medication?

I get it addition to pain medication is bad. I would assume most people know that, even those addicted. But the alternative is those people succumbing to pain, which would prevent any improvments.

Hence, yes I agree. Just throwing around money is not going to be the solution, but so is also not giving any.

I agree that incorrect administration of welfare can lead to that. But thats also the politicians job to manage.

Thats also comparable to saying I don’t visit doctors I fear a mistreatment.

Wendigoon’s serial killer tierlist. Makes me also sleepy.

You do. But not the politicians who actually get it into law. Also who has decided you are the spokesperson of the pro life movement?

Per the biblical description, for the souls that are damned to suffer there. How you define it is up to you.

If you acknowledge Hell. Then you also have to acknowledge thats a place of pure torment. Otherwise if you see it as a place of pure fun and party its your definition of heaven.

No, the therapist came to this conclusion on his own by seeing his mother.

Cope?

True that. But now we are already in the mess, ain’t we?

True that. But also supporting one side with Intel, equipment and volunteers. Is nothing new. Its a pritty common geopolitical move. If any other country had a civil war on they’re border I’d think they would also go around doing the same. Any historian may check but I think thats pre Napoleonic.

Thats why Russia did a USA and did not start the war, but “intervened“ in the Ukrainian civil war.

Drafting from occupied territories, who did NOT do that? Ukrainian culture, sure.

But people?

Genocide is the intentional destruction of a people in whole or in part.

Then why does Russia hold most of Ukrainan refugees ( even from ouside the occupied territories ) and civilian deaths are really low compared to other modern wars?

( For example the third Iraq War 13-17 had double amount of casualties while using significantly less weapons and shells https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/02/1146297 https://www.iraqbodycount.org/database/)

Every dead person is someone important, not coming back. But escalating is not going to help reduce the casualties.
