    No, I think it’s a take on the word ‘deserving’ since it’s pretty open to interpretation.

    Does someone in constant pain deserve to live?

    The fall of the country is probably a good thing. We need more rational people in charge.

      Does someone in constant pain deserve to live?

      That doesn’t really work as a comparison, because it devolves into the question “does anyone deserve to live?”

      The fact is, someone fooled by someone else doesn’t deserve the consequences. The person who deceived them is the only one that “deserves” negative consequences.

      Yes… because violent civil wars always lead to intelligent and rational leaders.

      Get out of here with that bullshit.

          And how does a violent civil war in the country with the largest military and most nukes help that? I am genuinely curious to hear your answer

            You came in here with that violent civil war shit. Argue against my stance, not one you made up.

              So… how does that happen peacefully without mass suffering?

                Hypothetically it already happened once and nobody really cared. Remember that government shutdown?

                    Yeah. I guess if “fall of the country” mostly means “Dick over park workers and other government employees without changing anything” then… that is just really dicky? But I can see how they would think the current government is “rational”

        I have several times. I end up having everything I’ve worked for taken away over and over.
