Should we be able to vote to euthanase simpletons, for example?
https://www.bangkokpost.com/news/specia ... -news-bookMyanmar army fakes Rohingya photos in 'True News' book
YANGON: The grainy black-and-white photo, printed in a new book on the Rohingya crisis authored by Myanmar's army, shows a man standing over two bodies, wielding a farming tool. "Bengalis killed local ethnics brutally", reads the caption.
The photo appears in a section of the book covering ethnic riots in Myanmar in the 1940s. The text says the image shows Buddhists murdered by Rohingya - members of a Muslim minority the book refers to as "Bengalis" to imply they are illegal immigrants.
But a Reuters examination of the photograph shows it was actually taken during Bangladesh's 1971 independence war, when hundreds of thousands of Bangladeshis were killed by Pakistani troops.
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Its easier to blame one man, or in this case, one woman.

Democracy is a morally flawed system. Two guys can vote to steal a third guy's house. Or a majority can choose to exterminate a minority. I'm just playing devil's advocate.finbar wrote: ↑Thu Aug 30, 2018 8:45 pmYou have to question what information the 'majority of the people' were being fed, though it's quite possible they're all just a nasty bunch of murderous racists anyway.

'Democracy is a morally flawed system..."
It is much more than just a system, above all it is a state of mind.
