You didn't just compare self isolating people for covid with tortured Vietnam veterans? wtf?

the comparison was apt

umm

no

IF you can't deal with alittle isolation, GOD HELP YOU when there is a REAL crisis

you seem like the type of person that needs to read the article

Locked in cages, tortured, vs sat in a house

projection

lmfao

LOL

@OneTrueGod you misunderstand

he is providing a CONTRAST

not a comparison

Vietnam was SHIT

they came back and had to deal with their OWN shit for decades

from whiney ass classmates whose parents pulled strings

Ptsd is no joke

ptsd is a catch phrase

Nam ptsd was probably the worst

They went through a lot of shit

damn it. stop using the lingo

Given lsd, forced to kill, it was a bloody war

the condition they refer to as 'ptsd' has as much to do with the INABILITY of those around a person to HANDLE stress, forcing them to walk on EGG shells as it does their own experience

Also makes people irrationally violent under normal circumstances

it's literally like being afraid to breathe because you might BREAK or OFFEND or HURT someone

the 'irrational violence' comes from the beneifts the ENTITLED enjoy as members of the civilized worlld

no violence is 'rational'

it's 'instinct'

I remember reading that the soldiers were given drugs because they were having trouble coping with the level of violence and the conditions

I think among the rhetoric, there within lies the threshold, and Americas, from the perspective of lazy asshole shits around the world, know what it means to sacrifice themselves upon the alter of good things, so ya'll can get fucked if we show priority for them, those that dream, although of course- how america sacrifices their virtues, extends well beyond the actions, it is a call of inspiration, a call of duty, a call for all of humanity to wake up beyond their tethers and explore the possibilities of their harness and fight- fight and just fight, fight all the way until you breath your last breath, not for country, not for god, not for your parents, but for yourself- just so you can say one last time- at least I do not disappoint the good that I know as truth within myself.

all true.. however, i disagree with one part: " but for yourself"

they don't have any fucking CLUE what it is THEY want

they DO NOT OWN themselves

it's out of cowardice

Well, uh I do, but I'm a fucking naive x-gen

to never care about ANYTHING enough to fear losing it

then why fight?

they do it out of ego... or fear

THAT is what makes it detestable

@ManAnimal why don't you respond to the fucking argument instead of characterizing what I have to say?

If one owns himself and consciously decides a sacrifice is not worth the cost because he values somethingELSE he doesn't wish to lose?
