The Afghan War is over

[Madner Kami]

I'd hazard a guess and assume, that you got lots of experience with getting beaten.

[Yukaphile]

Perhaps more than you know.

And the Reuters article? I notice that you conveniently avoided that. A lot easier to poo poo me than it is to poo poo one of the most respected journals in the world isn't it.
Are you aware that the US has been at war for 93% of its existence? Impressive for such a young country. Being a peacetime president is actually the rarity not the norm and such men should be commended when they come along no matter their other faults.

You're correct in that I didn't respond to the applied notion of Trump being an international arbiter of peace.

Yeah I apologize for averting that. I suppose it's interesting enough for speculation honestly, but argumentatively I don't see it as a very weighted initiative by itself. And from there, I'm personally more skeptical about its validity.

He never cared about his fans. Ever. What he did finally just proved it. We're "entitled," don't'cha know?

What exactly does Poparena have to do with the Afghan war?

The only shitty person I see is Makeshift Python, and I'd like to add, I may not hate Fuzzy Necomancer, but I sure do hate Makeshift Python. And wow, the giant, flaming, asshole douchebag of a man was banned once, wow, what are the ODDS? Who would have seen that coming?

Why do you hate the guy?

Because one time I referred to Clearspira as "White Hetero Male Fragility". This was from when I pointed out that the third season of DISCO was the very first season of any Trek to NOT feature a white heterosexual male in the main cast. He got really upset over that factoid, accusing the Trek producers of committing hate crime or something. That's how I got a two-month ban. I didn't object to it.

But that's not really part of this topic, so let's leave it at that.

Lol, whatever.

You got banned because of me? No. I doubt that. What I suspect happened was that I was the last point in a chain of your own making.

TLGS actually notified me in PM
that I was banned specifically for the White Male Fragility remark.

Earth will be fine. Humans are a very minor blip during the life of Earth. Everything we are doing to this planet will heal eventually even if takes hundreds of thousands if not millions of years. Earth is not dying.

The lump of rock will continue to orbit for billions of years. The biosphere is going to require much longer than a few million years to recover from what we've already done to it, particularly if (as some researchers believe) we've managed to disrupt the oncoming ice age.

Not really. A million years is a long time. Five ice ages happened in the past one million years. That doesn't include the short ones like that just ended in the past hundred years or so.

Biodiversity is different. That will take much longer. 5 millions give or take.

But the damage to the Earth itself? Not too long at all. Assuming humans either stop what we are doing now.

I never in my wildest dreams would have expected people from the far right to end up simping for the FREAKING Taliban.

Can we just start calling them the American Taliban, now? That's clearly what they want to be.

Sorkin already tried that. Didn't catch on.
