The former Hawaii congresswoman delivered a full-throated call to vote for Trump—a man she had once tried to run against as a Democrat.

    The funny thing about you fucking morons is you pretend to know shit. We live in the most peaceful era since at least the 1400s.

      Because of a decline in wars in Europe.

      I already said that liberals care about conflict in Europe. They don’t mind sponsoring conflict elsewhere.

        Look at the chart, you idiot.

        • Taiping rebellion
        • Lopez war
        • Armenian genocide
        • Vietnam
        • Cambodia
        • Afghanistan
        • Rwanda

        Not to mention many more conflicts not explicitly called out in the chart, like the Russo-Japanese war, the umpteen conflicts in Myanmar, India-Pakistan, Korean War, Iran-Iraq, gulf war, Syrian revolution, East Timor… I could go on, but there’s no point. It’s like trying to teach a dog turd to go fetch.

          Are you agreeing with me that liberals like to foster foreign wars?

          (The Armenian genocide wasn’t even foreign. It was carried out by European liberals within the borders of their trans-continental empire.)

              Yes, the GOP and the Democrats are both liberals.

              But only the Democrats think liberalism means peace.

              Edit: Imagine thinking that there’s an ideological difference between Democrats and the GOP (beyond the Democrats feeling a little more guilty about slavery).

                (But not feeling guilty enough to provide reparations or anything.)

              What are you talking about? What did China or regional warlords have to do with the Vietnam war?

                China and Vietnam fought a war of their own, ffs.

                  That was after the Vietnam war.

                  And in what sense can you say that China “completely fucked” Vietnam? Vietnam won that war, and Vietnam was a unified country before, during, and after that war.

                    1979 was just a later example of 2100 years of Vietnamese subjugation by warring Chinese.

                    Also, I’m fucking done arguing with a goddamn brick.
