    Default Re: Speaking of Israel...

    I was lining up a joke that went along the lines of: capitalism is supposed to be used to provide someone to blame the atrocities on, to be able to say "That wasn't us, that was the evil buisnessmen! We had nothing to do with it, Honest!" with a straight face, thus deflecting blame and responsibility while reaping the profits.

    I was going to say your failings was actually reforming instead of throwing the colonists under a bus and making a token effort to make things right until everyone forgot about it and you and your capitalist buddies can go on as normal.

    Then I found out I am incapable of making something that cynical funny, even in the form of a sardonic faux-endorsment of kicking the can.

    Then I started to realize how much of a paralel that supposed joke has with reality.

    I am tired of this round.

    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.
