    Aaaaand…how did that protest go for ya? Did it work? Did anything change?

    No?

    Imagine that.

    Great example. It really shows how little the far left understands nuance and common sense.

      I guess you are right. Maybe I should be in favor of war and genocide then because it’s always working. Thank you kind stranger, I will stop protesting now.

        So… knowing that some protests in the past have been pointless is the key to supporting genocide now?

        You seem to like going WAY out of your way to maintain ignorance, don’t you? Instead of accepting that your point was dismissed, you opted to throw a hissy fit and cut off your own nose in a bad faith attempt to make another point.

        Incredibly childish.

      History is filled with examples of the righteous being defeated by the wicked.

      Christ, being such an example

        As I recall…. Things didn’t work out well for Christ. Pretty sure the end score was:

        Wicked: 1

        Christ: 0

          That was literally my point. And is the entire point of Christianity

              Christianity actually changed some things in world history. Like more than a few.

              So a temporary loss by the righteous can eventually lead to a permanent victory. Which was very clearly my point. And is the point of the Bible - and is also the point of the religious history of the West

                So… your argument is to compare your incessant whining and selfish refusal to do what is necessarily to protect the lives and rights of others to…… checks notes

                ……Christians?

                Yeah. That tracks. You can have that argument. That definitely sums up both camps pretty well.

                    Riiiight. Well that’s new. I’ve never seen anyone “pretend to not understand written language” to get out a conversation before, but here we are moving new ground.

                    I suppose you’re not going to point out which part you’re having trouble understanding, are you?
