seems to be a thing with you.
“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”

you saying the same thing over n over trying to spam the last word cause your argument is a total fail


Still failing basic math. Defining yourself as insane is a nice twist though. I approve.

You are asking me to do that. If fighting against genocide is so easy why are you not telling me how to overthrow the government and out there attempting to do it yourself? Give me your strategy and attack plans. If you have a non-0 chance of success I'll support you. You'll have to be a genius to be successful at that task, and the fact you're typing on a game centred website indicates you aren't. But I'm always open to changing my mind.


It's not about whether it's easy. It's about me pointing out to you that when deciding to fight for a cause, any cause, one should never calculate the odds of success before he takes it up. That is called calculating, which you don't deny.

People who fight battles they can't win are removed from the battlefield permanently. I prefer to fight battles I can win. I am not remotely ashamed for using my brain. I wish everyone would.

What do you think would have happened if the founding fathers said, there is no way we would win against the greatest empire in the world?

The crimes of the American empire wouldn't have happened, they'd be crimes of the British empire instead. Otherwise, not much.

:) your math

It is trivial. Even at its face. Already we've seen calls for 5th booster shots. That is 5 doses a person. 400m covers 10 doses a person. That isn't an absurd amount for a pandemic that most all governments have underestimated. You have to disbelieve there's a pandemic to think it is unreasonable. Most Canadians don't disbelieve there's a pandemic.

:) you correcting your own math

Since basic math is apparently outside your capabilities: 400M - 200M = 200M. 200M / 38M = ~5 doses per person. My apologies for assuming you had an education.

I don't think you got my point.

Anyway, the reason a battle cannot be won is because in your mind, you are already defeated before you even start. You call this "using the brain", I call it preemptive, self-inflicted demoralization.

And what makes you say that a battle cannot be won, anyway? How would you even know? You can predict the future? I realize that there are very hard battles that have poor odds of winning, however that is not a reason to put your hands up and surrender before even trying.

I'll also note that the US had the support of France, an empire of roughly equivalent power to the British. I don't see any equivalent powers standing against genocide. All super powers are engaging in genocide. One person is going to take on the EU, the US, China, and Russia? lol be serious.

Nice attempt at quote mining. Never mind the other half of my post. Still failing basic math. Adding failure of basic reading comprehension.
