  1. There are only six books in the Dune series. Only Frank Herbert wrote Dune. All else is crappy fanfiction. (Paul runs away from home to join the “Space Circus”… I wish I was kidding…)
  2. Well… according to Putin… if you speak Russian you are Russian… so…
  3. And while Ukrainian, Zelenskyy is ethnically Russian and grew up speaking Russian. [edit for spelling thank you KBF]
  4. A varient on “the Great Convention” about the use of “Atomics” im Frank Herbert’s “Dune” Universe?
  5. Interesting. I’m hearing “blown away it was so good” and “oh my God that sucked” more of the former than the latter? Can you please elaborate on the mid level of enjoyment?
  6. The Guardian seems pretty balanced and fact based in my experience.
  7. @Spockydog Are you really equating the BBC with RT News?
  8. Lending credibility to the Russian Propaganda channel is a pretty awful thing to do. [eta] @mormont he took money from RT? Yeah… fuck that asshat.
  9. I didn’t say “decisiveness is horrible all the time.” And I can disagree with Garland’s methodical approach to prosecution of politically difficult cases without thinking Garland was entirely wrong to take a go it slow approach.
  10. Can we agree that there needs to be a balance between thoughtfulness and decisiveness? Either in isolation can lead to poor outcomes. Each should ideally be tempered by the other.
  11. “The best lack all conviction while the worst are full of passionate intensity”. I’ve been wrong many times in my life. I constantly second guess myself. Passion untempered by compassion is dangerous. Always has been. We are all, every one of us, flawed and fallible.
  12. I’ll ask my question again then… are all Israelis legitimate targets for violence in your opinion?
  13. Absolutely not. I’ve said from the Start Likud and Hamas both suck and each feeds off the violence offered by the other.
  14. Are all Israeli civilians legitimate targets for violence in your opinion?
  15. I have never said that. While a public suicide is violent it isn’t violence against others.
  16. He should have acknowledged murder is wrong or he should have murdered people? The latter sounds horrific.
