    Why do you even bother to engage in World News if your primary interest is maintaining cognitive dissonance through willful ignorance and the moronic good/evil framing of the world?

      It’s not. My primary interest is to learn, analyze, and understand the world around me. I don’t believe good and evil exist, period. My secondary interest is engaging others to learn from them. My tertiary objective is to engage with others to disabuse them of false beliefs based on my current understanding of the world around me.

        in point of historical fact the North Atlantic is the evil empire you keep fantasizing about

        we all get our most fundamental beliefs shaken from time to time, hope youre taking it well
