I'm not saying you've said anything about that, I just said it's the type of bull**** you post.

That's all we're asking for. Nobody likes a messiah complex.

Nobody likes a liar or a docuchebag either. And I posted about that 2 weeks ago. Way to strike when the iron is hot!

I already told you that I don't read the stories that you post. I've already posted about it as well btw.

Again,

Again,
When was the last time that a messiah went on an internet message board and posted about civil rights in communist China?

I have an idea. Un-mod yourself, then you will be able to put me on "ignore." It's really a win-win-win for EVERYONE.

Having a messiah complex isn't indicative of being a messiah.

Thanks for the input.

Anyways, back to the probable genocide that's underway in China. Combined with their recent aggression and military expansion, is a war with China as "ethical" as a war with the Nazis?

WW2
was a crapshoot. Too many different angles and interests to really insert any sort of ethical metric.

On a different front, China is readying for a war with Taiwan over rights to the South China Sea as we speak.

Agreed. I was talking with a friend about the ethics of war and he fell back on a sort of "sometimes you just gotta fight Nazis" attitude which prompted a realization of an increasing similarity between the two countries. I don't think it's an unpopular opinion that global tensions are brimming in a pre-world war manner either. There are a lot of the same quiet alliances that were going on back in the day as well.

Yep, this is the aggression and expansion I was referring to. I think it's like a trial balloon.
