By illustrating the fact that Vladimir Putin runs an oppressive faux-democracy that tramples its people and lies to the world, I was arguing against her, because she should presumably find such things to be abhorrent. There are, however, people like you and the Mackonians, who admire dictatorial asshats, and would thus consider Putin's belligerent and autocratic policies a good thing, and not a bad thing. So the argument I've used isn't directed at you, because you would view that argument- that Putin is a massive cunt who needs to be stopped- as a commendation, not a condemnation."

Socialism is the tragedy that unfolds as a result of reckless capitalism. It's a reasonable response I find, as capitalism allows a sense of undeserved entitlement that is not compatible with a meritocratic societal system. As they say 'Wealth does not pass three generations' and as such, subtly jabs the very idea of entitlement and capitalism.

Misunderstanding leads to misconceptions. Misconceptions lead to asinine comments. Asinine comments will make you look like a fool. Looking like a fool is a disgrace. Being a disgrace is unthinkable, and therefore one should disappear.

So in all honesty, do try to be as understanding of the facts as possible, and the fact of the matter is, logic reigns above all.

Begone.


-Trollkaiger!Hyatōri Misamunē-


In any case, political correctness in any reality is a critique of anything that can be deemed political. In a way, it can only survive in a politically free environment.

However, political correctness is not the best way to handle certain social issues. First off certain people have heavy misconceptions of the very concept of political correctness, and those that do utilize such a concept may or may not be fully in the know to use it properly. In such a case, mutual dialogue or even a simple question of permission would suffice, and would clear up any misconception between the participating parties.

Such is the case with subjective concepts. Besides, understanding all sides from all angles is beneficial, even if one believes it is not.

Russia is still a joke compared to what China may or may not pull off in the South China Sea or Sea of Japan. Well, the CPC was quite dauntless--reckless in my eyes--in Hong Kong.

However, so long as Senyosu exists, the Chinese threat will remain a small yet ominous shadow. And I am quite sure that we shall all come to terms.
