| 13:13.40 | Hachiman | I wonder what it would be like to work in a prison |
| 13:14.45 | Monet | Dependso n the department. |
| 13:17.19 | Monet | Though most prisons aren't very colourful inside |
| 13:18.13 | Hachiman | Well, of course |
| 13:18.52 | Monet | So my only guarentee is it'd probably feel dreary |
| 13:19.21 | Hachiman | I wonder how much it pays though |

| 13:21.25 | Monet | I think prison doctors get paid reasonably well. |
| 13:23.09 | Tek0516 | Hello |
| 13:23.12 | Hachiman | Hi |
| 13:23.43 | Tek0516 | So I heard Farage stepped down. |
| 13:24.01 | Hachiman | Yeah |
| 13:24.06 | Wormy_ | Indeed |
| 13:24.16 | Hachiman | He achieved his goals, so there is no need for him to lead UKIP anymore |
| 13:24.21 | Wormy_ | Though he did it before and then came back to piss of everybody celebrating |
| 13:24.43 | Hachiman | I reckon he will come back AGAIN if he finds the UK is not getting a good deal with the EU |
| 13:24.56 | Wormy_ | bbl going to watch le Tour de France |
| 13:25.48 | Tek0516 | So yesterday here in Toronto that Black Lives Matter movement protested a Pride Parade of all things. O.o |

| 13:27.32 | Hachiman | Presumably because the Pride Parade was not about them |
| 13:27.34 | Hachiman | Hi Imp |
| 13:27.42 | Hachiman | We were just talking about BLM |
| 13:28.48 | Tek0516 | Context for Imp: 9:25 AM <Tek0516> So yesterday here in Toronto that Black Lives Matter movement protested a Pride Parade of all things. O.o |
| 13:29.45 | Tek0516 | Stalled it for half an hour until the organizers conceded to their demands. |
| 13:32.21 | Hachiman | What were their demands/ |
| 13:33.32 | Tek0516 | "The group released a list of demands, including a commitment to increase representation among Pride Toronto staff, and to prioritize the hiring of black transgender women and indigenous people. Some of the other demands Chantelois agreed to are that the parade will no longer have police floats, and the organization will hold a public town hall with |
| 13:33.32 | Tek0516 | groups such as Black Lives Matter Toronto within six months." |
| 13:34.01 | Hachiman | Fucking hell |
| 13:35.13 | Tek0516 | Basically promoting blacks more. Also kicking out the police for some reason. |
| 13:36.03 | Tek0516 | According to some representative on the news kicking out the police stuff is supposed to be more inclusive. >.> |
| 13:37.34 | Monet | Yeah more inclusive to peopel who might want to ruin the demosntration. |
| 13:38.19 | Tek0516 | The fact the Mayor, Premier (who is openly gay IIRC) and Prime Minister were all there probably only encouraged them. |
| 13:38.22 | Monet | Or BLM have reached a point where members do no trust the police and see them only as government muscle. |
| 13:38.51 | Tek0516 | Don't forget this is Canada, not the mess that is the US. |
| 13:40.08 | Hachiman | BUT COPS ARE BLACK-KILLERS |
| 13:40.40 | Hachiman | THEY'RE A SYMBOL OF WHITE PATRIARCHAL SOCIETY |
| 13:41.02 | Hachiman | THEY'RE SS IN A DIFFERENT UNIFORM; BLACKS ARE THE NEW JEWS |
| 13:41.54 | Monet | Yeah I was just thinking |
| 13:42.23 | Monet | How frequently does BLM use the LAPD to make their point? |
| 13:43.24 | Tek0516 | Actually I just noticed that in this BLM was making an issue about them being marginalized. >.> |
| 13:43.38 | Tek0516 | In a pride parade. *facepalm* |
| 13:44.52 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |
| 13:45.25 | Hachiman | That has nearly always been their goal |
| 13:46.38 | Monet | That and acting like the flailing necks of the Hydra. |

| 13:57.02 | Monet | ImpyDroid: Apparently UKIP have a terrible attendance rate in the EP |
| 13:57.39 | Monet | Farage's little speech was one of the few times a year actually shows up. |
| 13:59.30 | ImpyDroid | EP as in Europarliament |
| 13:59.35 | Monet | Yes |
| 13:59.43 | ImpyDroid | Well it makes sense |
| 14:00.26 | Monet | That and it's a little undemocratic to ban a particular party simply because they're annyoing. |

| 14:00.50 | ImpyDroid | Well they promote racial hatred |
| 14:01.32 | Wormydroid | It wouldn't surprise me if there are minorities within the Pride movement itself who experience lack of rep and even racism |
| 14:01.53 | ImpyDroid | I mean there are many places where the Confederate flag is banned |
| 14:02.00 | ImpyDroid | So why not ban BLM too |
| 14:03.16 | Monet | Oh BLM |
| 14:03.33 | Monet | You'd jsut prove their point, for one. |
| 14:05.48 | Monet | That and the old adage that banning something doesn't get rid of it. |
| 14:06.30 | AdmiralPanda | Take the Australian example- banning things just makes them more and more public :P |
| 14:08.41 | Wormydroid | These are activists - banning won't stop them :P |
| 14:09.20 | Hachiman | Unfortunately Imp, there is a practice in the West known as freedom as speech |
| 14:09.27 | Hachiman | *freedom of speech |
| 14:09.49 | Hachiman | Which is why passive neo-Nazi groups are allowed to exist in the USA |
| 14:09.59 | Hachiman | Alongside the whole slew of other ridiculous movements |
| 14:10.13 | Hachiman | And nationalist groups in Europe |
| 14:10.56 | Wormydroid | freedom of speech is okay, what people don't understand is it opens them to critivism and humilation |
| 14:11.41 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: Free speech is one thing, open calls for violence and racial hatred is another |
| 14:11.43 | Wormydroid | So they can't complain about the shit they shovel into the public sphere being thrown back |
| 14:11.54 | ImpyDroid | Bah stupid Westerners with their *freedoms* |
| 14:12.07 | Wormydroid | Oh yeah, incitement is somethibg else |
| 14:12.27 | Hachiman | Don't you live in a society where being gay = publicly lynched |
| 14:12.39 | ImpyDroid | ...No? |
| 14:12.54 | Monet | It's like I say, there's the right t ofree speech and then there's the understanding of when it's appropritate to display it. |
| 14:13.10 | ImpyDroid | I have a gay bar next to my home |
| 14:13.15 | Hachiman | Huh |
| 14:13.23 | Hachiman | I thought Russia was vehemently anti-gay |
| 14:13.25 | ImpyDroid | I also lived next to a gay couple for a few years |
| 14:13.35 | Wormydroid | I think its Rusian mainstream medua thats homophobic |
| 14:13.42 | ImpyDroid | Depends on the person |
| 14:13.43 | Monet | What's plagued rationality is people tend to not consider the other side. |
| 14:13.45 | ImpyDroid | And the place |
| 14:14.08 | ImpyDroid | We are more homophobic than you but less so than say |
| 14:14.36 | ImpyDroid | Dunno your beloved Gulf monarchies |
| 14:14.45 | ImpyDroid | Which are your partners |
| 14:14.50 | Wormydroid | True |
| 14:15.00 | Monet | They're hardly beloved but I get your point. |
| 14:15.21 | Wormydroid | Our governments tolerate and appease them |
| 14:15.34 | Monet | For cheap oil. |
| 14:15.42 | ImpyDroid | Saint-Petersburg in particular is kind of the San-Francisco of Russia |
| 14:16.02 | Wormydroid | In return for weapons |
| 14:16.15 | ImpyDroid | If my LGBT friends are to be trusted we have pretty much the largest LGBT community in the country |
| 14:16.39 | Monet | We give them weapons, they give us oil. |

| 14:19.10 | ImpyDroid | I am just kidding right here hur |
| 14:19.21 | Wormydroid | <PROTECTED> |
| 14:19.22 | ImpyDroid | The Ukrainian affair was a mess though I understand the reasoning of our government |
| 14:19.25 | Groxkiller98 | Better be. *Readies rifle.* |
| 14:19.55 | Groxkiller98 | Fixing Ukraine's government isn't a bad thing - That's not an excuse to invade, though. |
| 14:20.01 | ImpyDroid | The whole Crimea affair as I understand was a panic reaction |
| 14:20.34 | Hachiman | How about you get Turkey so you can remove cockroaches |
| 14:20.40 | Cyrannian | Hello |
| 14:20.57 | Hachiman | kebabroaches |
| 14:20.58 | Wormydroid | Hi |
| 14:20.59 | Hachiman | Hai |
| 14:21.09 | ImpyDroid | We oppress Crimean Tatars |
| 14:21.16 | ImpyDroid | Crimean Tatars are basically Turkish |
| 14:21.27 | Hachiman | That's not Turkey though really |
| 14:21.34 | Groxkiller98 | Can we not have a political argument? |
| 14:21.36 | ImpyDroid | Kremlin saw Ukraine literally falling into chaos with big far-right undertone and the new government banning Russian as an official language |
| 14:21.37 | Wormydroid | You you press them into tatar sauce? |
| 14:22.20 | ImpyDroid | So they just kind of panicked and decided to get dirty |
| 14:22.23 | Hachiman | REMOVE KEBAB |
| 14:22.42 | Monet | ImpyDroid: So the invasion of Ukraine was kind of like Cuba? |
| 14:22.51 | ImpyDroid | Monet: Ooh yeah like that |
| 14:22.51 | Groxkiller98 | Remove Farage first, please. >_> |
| 14:23.09 | Monet | GroxKiller: He removed himself today. |
| 14:23.16 | Groxkiller98 | He did? Hurray! |
| 14:23.40 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: We are actually sort of fixing our relationships with Turkey |
| 14:23.57 | ImpyDroid | But Erdogan had to make a public apology and grovel at our feet so it is okay with me |
| 14:24.02 | Hachiman | Nice hur |
| 14:24.15 | Groxkiller98 | Who? |
| 14:24.25 | Hachiman | >not knowing who Erdogan is |
| 14:24.28 | Monet | Groxkiller: The president of Turkey |
| 14:24.34 | Hachiman | Why even get involved in political talk |
| 14:24.46 | Hachiman | I'm kidding btw |
| 14:24.51 | Groxkiller98 | I barely know my own politicians, never mind any other countries. >_> |
| 14:25.12 | Hachiman | Also |
| 14:25.15 | Hachiman | Farage is removed |
| 14:25.20 | Groxkiller98 | Yay! |
| 14:25.21 | Hachiman | Or rather, he removed himself |
| 14:25.28 | Groxkiller98 | I hated UKIP. Always. |
| 14:25.34 | Hachiman | He met all of his goals so he has no need to be around anymore |
| 14:25.36 | Hachiman | He won |
| 14:25.44 | Groxkiller98 | They are the British Nazi party - Minus the guns or public support. |
| 14:25.53 | Monet | He won an advisory vote. |
| 14:26.43 | Groxkiller98 | I just hope leaving the EU is the only thing that comes from his time in politics. |
| 14:26.49 | Monet | I like how he acts like Britain hass left already despite there so far being no confirmed date for exit talks. |
| 14:27.07 | Groxkiller98 | And I really hope they refuse to activate Article 50... |
| 14:27.11 | Hachiman | He didn't even head the Leave campaign, or have involvement in it |
| 14:27.36 | Groxkiller98 | Have you not noticed how the Leave campaign is suddenly like "Let's not push that button right now"? |
| 14:27.42 | Groxkiller98 | They're all scared of it. |
| 14:27.55 | Hachiman | Also, great democratic system if they decide to not go through with what the people's majority wanted |
| 14:28.04 | Groxkiller98 | By 4% |
| 14:28.09 | Hachiman | They still won |
| 14:28.25 | Groxkiller98 | If it was a 4% In win they would have done the whole vote again. >_> |
| 14:28.35 | Monet | One issue is that 4% margin might be a lot smaller now |
| 14:28.37 | Groxkiller98 | And have you not heard how the British public reacted? |
| 14:28.55 | Hachiman | Mixed? |
| 14:28.56 | Groxkiller98 | A lot of people have gone out and said "I wish I didn't vote Leave." |
| 14:29.24 | Hachiman | I'm honestly neutral on the issue at this point; both Remainers and Leavers have disgusted me |
| 14:29.38 | Monet | "Now I wish I had voted with a pencil, so MI5 could correct my mistake" |
| 14:29.45 | Groxkiller98 | XD |
| 14:29.47 | Hachiman | Fucking kek |
| 14:30.29 | Monet | Everything disgusts you though. |
| 14:30.40 | Hachiman | I mean, I won't dispute that, but |
| 14:30.49 | Groxkiller98 | I was strongly remain - So long as I didn't get people telling me my opinion was wrong, I had no issue though. |
| 14:30.54 | Hachiman | Remainers and Leavers have both shown signs of being very fucking bigoted |
| 14:31.01 | Wormydroid | We still to stop worrying about the past and prepare for the ultra Tories comibg over the hill! |
| 14:31.16 | Groxkiller98 | Wormy... You are right there. |
| 14:31.26 | Monet | Maybe the lib-dems will save us? |
| 14:31.40 | Groxkiller98 | The lib-dems? You mean the Liars Party? |
| 14:31.45 | Hachiman | Lib-Dems are extinct Monet; left in the dust like the dinosaurs |
| 14:31.46 | Wormydroid | Lib Dems ate ded |
| 14:31.54 | Wormydroid | Are |
| 14:32.03 | Monet | Hachiman: Tell that to the 7,500 new members they got these past few days. |
| 14:32.11 | Hachiman | Jesus |
| 14:32.19 | Groxkiller98 | They're not doing much, but they're alive. |
| 14:32.37 | Hachiman | Lib Dems are like a zombie about to shamble out of its grave at this point |
| 14:32.40 | Cyrannian | People should blame the majority party in the government rather than the minority party. Strange how the opposite seems to always be the case |
| 14:33.17 | Groxkiller98 | The majority party didn't even want to leave. |
| 14:33.17 | Wormydroid | True but a lot of pur politians are the same anyway |
| 14:33.26 | Monet | I like how everyone's fearing the Tories despite the fact the party is currently in danger of tearing itself in half. |
| 14:33.28 | Hachiman | >the majority party didn't even want to leave |
| 14:33.53 | Hachiman | I am quite sad that Boris Johnson is not going to run for PM |
| 14:33.54 | Groxkiller98 | The UK government is about to implode. |
| 14:34.05 | Groxkiller98 | I'm glad Boris isn't. |
| 14:34.05 | Cyrannian | It was the same situation in Ireland in the last election. The government was unpopular, but the majority party managed to remain as the governing party after the last election, while the minority party was decimated |
| 14:34.05 | Hachiman | It means we will probably be stuck with Gove |
| 14:34.17 | Hachiman | At least BoJo is entertaining |
| 14:34.38 | Hachiman | Gove's just some boring asshole |
| 14:34.53 | Groxkiller98 | I'd say right now we have one option; Somebody that is bad. |
| 14:35.02 | Hachiman | That's the case with every PM |
| 14:35.06 | Wormydroid | Jonathan Pie has a hilarious new rant about the Tories https://youtu.be/NffWa8ZlJkY |
| 14:35.11 | Monet | That thinking is why Donald Trump is likely to become US PResident |
| 14:35.59 | Hachiman | Other than people thinking Sanders is a liberal radicalist communist and Hillary not paying enough minorities to vote for her |
| 14:36.51 | Monet | The Tories are close to breaking in half, Labour's half-decapitated itself, everyone's having UKIP regrets, whose left? |
| 14:37.12 | Cyrannian | a return to an absolute monarchy pls |
| 14:37.15 | Hachiman | non |
| 14:37.31 | Hachiman | FUCK THE QUEEN, COMING STRAIGHT FROM THE PROLETARIAT |
| 14:37.49 | Monet | I sort-of agree with Hachi. |
| 14:37.55 | Cyrannian | She'll devour your kin for that |
| 14:38.05 | Hachiman | I'd like to see the old raptor try |
| 14:38.55 | Hachiman | The Royal Family is like some expensive novelty item that the UK keeps on its shelf |
| 14:39.21 | Monet | England has been a constitutional monarchy for nearly 400 years. |
| 14:39.24 | Hachiman | It's otherwise useless but it's somewhat pretty to look which distracts you from how fucking pointless it is |
| 14:39.43 | Groxkiller98 | I would rather the Queen takes over. |
| 14:40.07 | Groxkiller98 | It's useless right now, sure. |
| 14:40.10 | Hachiman | And you never end up realising that it was the cause of why your livelihood and marriage has been failing and gone into an irreparable state |
| 14:40.17 | Groxkiller98 | But if the government can't do their job, she can. |
| 14:40.18 | Monet | The QUeen is a nice lady. She's also more politically savvy than she seems. |
| 14:40.58 | Wormydroid | Royals have to pay rent and that reduces our taxes tho |
| 14:41.01 | Groxkiller98 | She called a Chinese ambassador rude, despite him being a lot worse than that. |
| 14:41.10 | Wormydroid | Itwouldcost more to get rid of them |
| 14:41.19 | Hachiman | We still get taxed BY them Wormy, and they still take our money for doing fuck all |
| 14:41.21 | Groxkiller98 | It would likely cost a war. >_> |
| 14:41.59 | Monet | The Royal Family are a very strong example of "you have to spend money to make money" |
| 14:42.00 | Wormydroid | Hachi. Yeah but the way it adds up in retyrn reduces our taxes ovwrall, more comes out than comes in |
| 14:42.06 | Groxkiller98 | Right, can we stop this conversation now, because it's making me uncomfortable, and agitated. |
| 14:42.15 | Wormydroid | Watch CGP Grey |

| 14:43.18 | Hachiman | Holy shit my sides |
| 14:43.24 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |
| 14:45.16 | Wormydroid | I don't know how you can argue for a reinstatement of power to the monarchy as a better alternative |
| 14:45.55 | Monet | Actualyl wait |
| 14:46.42 | Wormydroid | Democracy is the worst form of government, but all others hace failed |
| 14:46.50 | Wormydroid | Have |
| 14:46.56 | Monet | "Royals do nothing" -> Ttradition of men serving in the armed forces |
| 14:46.56 | Hachiman | It essentially gives the Queen and whoever her successors are free reign over the state of the country - the only thing holding her back would be possible advisers and even then she is such an old hag that she probably doesn't give a fuck |
| 14:47.04 | Hachiman | Monet: Conscription |
| 14:47.36 | Monet | HAchiman: So only the Royals can be conscripted these days? |
| 14:48.10 | Hachiman | No, it's a practice from when conscription was an enforced thing |
| 14:48.44 | Hachiman | I cannot agree with a practice that essentially surmounts to "I expect you to fucking die or I'll brand you a criminal and a coward" |
| 14:48.50 | Hachiman | Because that's barbaric |
| 14:49.18 | Hachiman | If the Royal Family was reinstated, enforced conscription would make a comeback |
| 14:49.21 | Wormydroid | I wpuld take the coward option |
| 14:49.21 | Monet | And what about the fact that both WIllima and Harry have performed more than one tour of duty? |
| 14:49.28 | Wormydroid | Better prison rhan dead |
| 14:49.54 | Hachiman | Monet: It's laughable to think that they did those tours on their own and not without a whole slew of bodyguards |
| 14:50.17 | Monet | Hachiman: You mean squadmates. |
| 14:50.24 | Hachiman | No, I mean bodyguards |
| 14:50.42 | Hachiman | You don't expect the Royal Family to let Harry and William out there without protection do you |
| 14:51.00 | AdmiralPanda | they actually can't run combat missions anyway |
| 14:51.17 | AdmiralPanda | the one that was in the air force strictly flew civilian rescue missions |
| 14:51.30 | Hachiman | Exactly |
| 14:52.40 | Monet | And that makes him less of a soldier when most of the armed forces are made up of support staff. |
| 14:52.47 | Wormydroid | Jesus, nearly drowned from an overly juicy clementine |
| 14:54.05 | Monet | It might be I was raised by a mother who was strongly supportive of people who serve in the armed forces. |
| 14:54.23 | Hachiman | I have nothing against the armed forces, but I am against the Royal Family |
| 14:54.55 | Wormydroid | I'm against the war crimes of Tony Blair |
| 14:55.05 | Monet | Whether they were soldiers on the frontline or the support staff keeping them safe and well-equipped, I consider them brave men and women. |
| 14:55.18 | Hachiman | Harry and William are admirable for serving their part in the military, but I refuse to bend over and let the idea that they went out there all by themselves and stood equal to everyone else fuck me in the ass like it does everyone else |
| 14:56.20 | Wormydroid | To be honest it would have ebdangered the regiments they serced in |
| 14:56.25 | Wormydroid | Served |
| 14:57.09 | Hachiman | If the Queen was in charge of the UK, there would not even *be* a referendum to begin with for us to argue over and we would most likely either left the EU by now or be in the process of doing so |
| 14:58.38 | ImpyDroid | Actually |
| 14:58.45 | ImpyDroid | Could the Queen veto the Brexit? |
| 14:58.53 | Hachiman | No; she supports it as far as I know |
| 14:58.59 | ImpyDroid | rite |
| 14:59.00 | Wormydroid | No, but Scotland could |
| 14:59.01 | Hachiman | And even then, if she didn't, she still couldn't |
| 15:03.06 | drom | My ten usb keys did not arrive today |
| 15:03.10 | drom | *sadface' |
| 15:07.48 | Hachiman | Also, I don't like this correlation of military service = respect as a political figure |
| 15:08.16 | Hachiman | Like, you can have participated in military service and be a distinguished soldier but a shit politician with fucking awful poliicies |
| 15:08.19 | Hachiman | policies* |
| 15:09.24 | Wormydroid | Well I got a First for my degree today. That means I can go on my Masters |
| 15:09.38 | Hachiman | Nice |
| 15:09.38 | Monet | Officially the Queen's opinion is 'no comment' |
| 15:09.38 | Monet | I think she's wise to not give an official opinion on the matter. |
| 15:09.39 | Monet | Yeah. Officially the Queen isn't allowed to state her political views. |
| 15:09.47 | Monet | The royal family is supposed to be above politic al opinions - imagine the sway their opninions could have on, well pretty-much anything if they weren't. |
| 15:10.03 | Hachiman | I get my third diploma in the Simmer |

| 15:11.55 | DrodoEmpire | Hi everyone |
| 15:11.59 | Monet | I respect peopel with military service because they're actually doing shit. |
| 15:12.03 | Monet | Hi |
| 15:12.26 | Monet | Even if Prince WIlliam was confined ot flying only rescue helicopters for the RAF, he saved lives. |
| 15:12.40 | ImpyDroid | I think I'd serve if not for my poor health and the horrible condition of our armed forces |
| 15:13.20 | AdmiralPanda | I'm mentally unfit for service :P |
| 15:13.35 | Hachiman | I am both physically and mentally unfit |
| 15:14.16 | Wormydroid | I think I'm too impractical, too easily stressed, and hate authority too much for it |
| 15:14.59 | Hachiman | Monet: Also, Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, and Muammar Gaddafi all served in the military |
| 15:15.08 | Hachiman | Does that mean you respect those people because they were soldiers |
| 15:15.17 | Monet | I didnt' say it was blind respect. |
| 15:15.28 | AdmiralPanda | that was a bit of a dick move there Hachi |
| 15:15.34 | AdmiralPanda | in fact, a lot of a dick move |
| 15:15.40 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 15:15.43 | Hachiman | Like I said; you can be a good, distinguished soldier and be a fucking terrible politician |
| 15:15.53 | DrodoEmpire | Hachiman: If that was their only real thing, then yes I'd respect them for it because they served their country |
| 15:16.05 | Hachiman | And your politicial respect should NOT be derived from something otherwise unrelated to that occupation |
| 15:16.19 | DrodoEmpire | But seeing as they were also horrible dictators and terrorists. no, of course not |
| 15:17.03 | Monet | William is the case that Drodo pointed out - Unlike Hussein or Bin Laden, Willim has not been controversial. |
| 15:17.24 | Hachiman | No, because William is actually alright |
| 15:17.33 | Monet | And while Harry has been controversial, he's gotten better |
| 15:18.15 | DrodoEmpire | Right, Hachi, I don't think that rebuttal was the "gotcha!" you hoped it'd be. |
| 15:18.17 | DrodoEmpire | :p |
| 15:19.30 | Monet | Harry's gone from a royal brat who thought it would be funny to go to a Halloween as a Nazi to a veteren copter pilot who launched the Invictus Games - a multinational paralympic event for soldiers injured or maimed in war. |
| 15:19.38 | Hachiman | It's not a "gotcha"; I am saying that there shouldn't be an automatic respect for a political figure just because they happened to serve in the armed forces |
| 15:20.10 | Hachiman | Because, as per the examples I showed, they can be absolutely ludicrous and outright awful politicians |
| 15:20.32 | AdmiralPanda | you did phrase it in probably the most dickish way possible though |
| 15:20.46 | DrodoEmpire | They *can* be, or they can be great politicians |
| 15:20.52 | DrodoEmpire | At worst, it makes no difference |
| 15:21.26 | Monet | But armed and diplomatic service is most of WIlliams' career |
| 15:21.27 | DrodoEmpire | But to me it makes me at least like them a bit better on the outset, as at least they risked their life for the country at some point :p |
| 15:21.55 | AdmiralPanda | Monet: It's not like a royal would take up professional teacup painting :P |
| 15:22.55 | Monet | Prince Philip served in the Royal Navy during WWII, that doesn't blind me to the fact the guy can be dangerously insensetive towards foreigners. |
| 15:23.38 | Hachiman | Of course not, but I dislike how people tend to think "oh he served our country, he gets a free pass for fucking awful behaviour" |
| 15:23.54 | Monet | I don't do that either. |
| 15:24.45 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 15:25.01 | Hachiman | I'm not saying soldiers should not be respected, by the way |
| 15:26.08 | Monet | We have differing opinions on the royal family. |
| 15:28.51 | Monet | While a respect soldiers for being out in places like Afghanistan, I don't respect the human rights abuses some of the mhave committed. |
| 15:29.21 | Wormydroid | Or the war crimes comitted by Bush and Blair |
| 15:29.30 | DrodoEmpire | Naturally, but at that point those are the individuals who commit it |
| 15:29.57 | Monet | Bush and Blair are slightly different - they're button-pushers. |
| 15:30.08 | DrodoEmpire | And I really put the blame for warcrimes on the politicians and officers who commission it, as opposed to the people doing their job |
| 15:30.29 | Wormydroid | Of course |
| 15:30.37 | DrodoEmpire | That being said, if an individual very consciously takes part, or commits atrocities of his own accord, *then* its that guy's own fault as well |
| 15:31.29 | Monet | That's when things kget complicated. |
| 15:31.41 | Monet | "Just following orders" can't be a get-out-f-gail-free card |
| 15:32.08 | DrodoEmpire | Its one thing to drop mustard gas on a city- its a whole other to do so in full knowledge of what went on, and to do so again and again |
| 15:32.54 | Monet | But boot camp's purpose is not just to give you the skills to survive in a hot-zone, but also convert you into an automaton designed to follow orders. |
| 15:33.54 | AdmiralPanda | if you have a shitty military, yes; modern western militaries (at least the Australian one) encourage comprehension and understanding, not just blind obedience |
| 15:35.07 | Monet | I respect soldiers because they put the lives of millions above their own, endure situations most of us would probably break and shit ourselves from, and hold the tenacity to do it all again. |
| 15:36.43 | Monet | They're doing something that most of us would never think we could survive; which is essentially what heroism is. |
| 15:37.13 | Monet | Survive, endure, or do. |
| 15:39.46 | Wormydroid | The Chernobyl cleanup workers are another group that should get huge respect |
| 15:39.58 | Monet | Yeah. |
| 15:40.50 | Wormydroid | Going in to certain death like giving into radioactive pools of water to clear it from the path of the meltdown |
