Here’s hoping.

Good thing it’s not a place you want to be then.

My thoughts are with you Turkey, I hope you get the justice you deserve.

You’re going to be surprised how long this goes on for. Mark my words. In twenty years, you’ll be saying “I still can’t figure out how that lasted so long”.

Just make sure you’re out in front pal, I want to make sure I get a clear picture.

It’s funny how not knowing the details of an issue can cause problems, eh? It’s almost like we need to have some people around, who spend a lot of time learning about how the body works, and then can tell us the best ways to go about keeping ourselves healthy. We could give them a name even. How about doctors?

Nah, that’s just crazy.

The beautiful thing about stupid people is that they will never stop giving you stupid things to marvel at. There’s more ridiculousness coming, that much I can guarantee.

Only those who don’t understand the topic. Those of us who study them do not support proliferation.

They just had an election where the second most popular party was an extreme-right-wing pack of lunatics. What happens when they win the next election?

You cannot afford to have nuclear weapons when you can’t be sure who’s going to have control of them.

If hating the guy who’s threatening to take over my country is an illness, then bring it on, I’ve got it bad.

I hope for nothing but horrible things for this moron. He should be charged with murder.

If he is, he’s in for an unpleasant surprise.

I like it. Musky: a state of being petty or childish.

So, the land of freedom is now trying to tell people what emotions they can feel? Against the guy who’s supposed to be a free speech absolutist?

“You can say whatever you want, as long as it doesn’t upset me.”

The hypocrisy is unbelievable. You’d think they’d at least avoid making themselves look like complete fools, try to hide it a little?

Thanks to this moron, that’s exactly what’s going to happen.

I think a psychologist would say that if you really can’t find common ground, it’s best to agree not to talk about it.

Indoctrination is highly effective. Your parents were raised in a place where toeing the line is the norm and questioning those in power is traditionally a great way to ensure you disappear. Russians are deeply indoctrinated when compared to western nations because that’s how their society has been set up since 1922. The Soviet leadership ruled by suppressing any dissent, violently and without remorse. Just because the Soviet Union no longer exists, doesn’t mean their ways of doing things disappeared too.

The only way to change them would be to engage in an equally sophisticated program of indoctrination: deprogramming as it’s called. Since you lack the resources of the Soviet Union, it would be a much more difficult task, especially since your parents are now older and their brains are less changeable. They were indoctrinated as children and by a very prolific system. Reversing that now, by yourself, is a tall order.

I’m sorry your parents were failed by their leadership, it’s truly a shame.
