    The only way to teach any generation in power is spanking; the only difference between this generation and previous ones is that previous ones still remembered the last round of spanking.

          9/11 was a bloody nose that hurt the US’s pride more than anything else. Any actual damage came from America trying to stop the bleeding by spending two decades stabbing itself in the heart.

          Pearl harbour resulted in Hiroshima Nagasaki, which obliterated Japan as a political opponent. The US has no reason to look back at that and fear, because they won.

          9/11 was an inside job.

      Dad here, this is the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard in my life. If I ever need to physically abuse a 6 year old to get my point across I’ll just kill myself.

        Who said anything about 6 years olds? We’re talking about physically abusing 60-year old warmongering gerontocrats.

          The person who suggested the reason for all the world’s ills was not enough corporal punishment for children

            Uh that’s clearly a metaphor, the intended meaning being that the current generation of global elites has no reason to fear the masses because the masses haven’t done enough to make fearing them necessary. “All the world’s ills stem from lack of corporal punishment” is outrageous enough that you should consider the possibility that you misunderstood.
