The problem is that certain people are more inclined to believe certain things and do certain things @warriorman8

2018-09-22 00:31:53 UTC  

Basing it on ethnicity is arbitrary

2018-09-22 00:32:11 UTC  

It's not

2018-09-22 00:32:23 UTC  

If I found them generally distasteful, and unseemly as a majority, I would definitely dislike the nationality as a whole.

2018-09-22 00:32:42 UTC  

Like Somalians.

2018-09-22 00:32:50 UTC  

You're also going in it with a different understanding of the topic than I have, that is to say, you're arguing with the assumption I also think race is skin deep.

I do not @warriorman8

2018-09-22 00:33:09 UTC  

I mean you can distrust a person but not punish them over it

2018-09-22 00:33:24 UTC  

Protecting your country isn't punishing anyone

2018-09-22 00:33:25 UTC  

Well, I'm going to distrust them until they become a problem.

2018-09-22 00:33:28 UTC  

It's a country's right

2018-09-22 00:33:34 UTC  

to exclude who it wants

2018-09-22 00:33:46 UTC  

A country need not allow people into it.

2018-09-22 00:34:25 UTC  

Sure, just like I need not save someone who's about to be run over by a train.

2018-09-22 00:34:32 UTC  

You can just enforce law

2018-09-22 00:34:33 UTC  

True.

2018-09-22 00:34:34 UTC  

It's kinda a shitty thing to do,but I don't *need* to do it.

2018-09-22 00:34:39 UTC  

Why would you?

2018-09-22 00:34:52 UTC  

You would be putting yourself at risk for potentially no reward.

2018-09-22 00:34:56 UTC  

If I could easily do it with minimal risk to myself, then because of basic human empathy

2018-09-22 00:35:05 UTC  

Saving someone else is a reward in and of itself.

2018-09-22 00:35:15 UTC  

For example supreme general duterte is under an ongoing war with criminals

2018-09-22 00:35:22 UTC  

Basic human empathy shouldn't need to be explained

2018-09-22 00:35:32 UTC  

Duterte is a criminal himself, ironically

2018-09-22 00:35:36 UTC  

You have to have an extremely high IQ to understand human empathy

2018-09-22 00:35:45 UTC  

Define criminal

2018-09-22 00:35:59 UTC  

So...

2018-09-22 00:36:04 UTC  

He straight up extra-judicially kills people, such as drug dealers

2018-09-22 00:36:09 UTC  

How do you enforce the law without punishments?

2018-09-22 00:36:12 UTC  

Not to mention the countless comments he's made encouraging war crimes

2018-09-22 00:36:16 UTC  

And rape...

2018-09-22 00:36:20 UTC  

I don't know enough about Duterte, I know he kills drug dealers and that he's an atheist (it was in the news recently)

2018-09-22 00:36:22 UTC  

but that's it

2018-09-22 00:36:37 UTC  

Drug dealing shouldn't be a capital offense...

2018-09-22 00:36:44 UTC  

No?

2018-09-22 00:36:49 UTC  

You don’t have to be racist

2018-09-22 00:36:49 UTC  

You can certainly make the case it should be

2018-09-22 00:36:54 UTC  

Just be duterte

2018-09-22 00:37:04 UTC  

If you cripple an entire section of a city with drugs, that would be forgivable?

2018-09-22 00:37:13 UTC  

But yeah, Duterte encouraged some soldiers under his command to commit war crimes

2018-09-22 00:37:18 UTC  

To be brutal, rather than to show empathy

2018-09-22 00:37:46 UTC  

Empathy towards your enemies will get you killed.
