I'll likely always point it out, but I'm surprised at how few people are willing to understand how to consider a conflict resolved.
Imagine for a moment, you're sitting in a courtroom. You appear before the judge. You sit down. An officer whispers maybe three highly accusatory sentences in the judge's ear about things that have long been dealt with. Without you saying a word, and without a few minutes having gone by, the judge sentences you to practice forced disappearance or face annihilation in some form. So many times I've faced people who you'd think believe this to be how the journey from point A to point Z is expected to play out in addressing issues, in all spheres of life, complete with a direct rejection of nuance/elaboration, and it has made me wonder if humanity really is inherently evil, for a lack of a better word.
I'm having an aneurysm trying to understand what's being said here, can anyone explain?
Glad I'm not the only one. I read it 3 times and still don't know what's being said.
Maybe don't take it in all at once. Separate everything into parts based on where a comma would be. And also realize that "due process" is one word. I am genuinely confused at how it's hard to understand.
I'm trying to understand your conclusion, it feels like you have contempt for humanity because of their inability to tell when a conflict is resolved?
Correct.
it's partly deliberate. a war is being waged on our ability to communicate, organize, and solve problems. the elites don't want us thinking critically, they want us obedient, working, paying.
i think contempt is justified, because anyone can learn how to debate. but please understand most people have been shoved violently into their complacency.
