Onan, which is why wanking is called onanism. To me it's an odd story because it seems more like a social construct than a divine command. So I wonder if it's been heavily abridged and he died for some other reason that's been left out and they just said God did it because they wanted to reinforce that construct. If God really had a habit of dropping bodies just for spilling their seed, well, let's just say there'd be several thousand reasons why I wouldn't be typing this right now.

Or Canada.

What? That hasn't happened yet? Oh, sorry. That's the problem with being from the, er, can't say. Temporal prime directive and all that.

How about FLATUS? Not because it stands for anything, it's just a capitalised synonym of his name.

You also avoided my other question: at what point exactly do you accept your care being reduced to "ok die already grandad"?

I'm not surprised though. People like you are all "oh lots of people need to die because this isn't sustainable" followed quickly by "what me? no I mean other people".

It amounts to the same thing.

OK, so (a) who is going to knock off your elderly relatives - you or someone else; and (b) at what age will you top yourself for the benefit of civilisation?

It gives a way to distinguish between "Sue, and Greg" (two independent people), and "Sue and Greg" (a couple).

We don't need fewer people, we need more political will and less political won't. There are more than enough resources to feed and clothe mankind and we now have an extremely effective global delivery system in place, so there is no excuse for not ending global poverty.

I get the strength of your feelings, but for now the MAGAts aren't actually killing people. Yet, maybe, but that remains to be seen. By calling for their deaths, and doubling down on it, you are making yourself worse than them. Killing political opponents is something we see in places like Russia and Iran, not in a (supposedly) advanced democracy like the USA, where a wide political spectrum is meant to be part of the design.

(BTW I'm British, and a big fan of what America SHOULD be. Somewhat less enthusiastic about what you've become.)

The reason we're seeing this sort of stuff coming to the forefront, IMHO, is because the mainstream political parties aren't listening to the people's legitimate concerns about immigration, poor public services, lack of work and so on. So when the Nazis strut in, apparently championing all that stuff, it's hardly surprising when people vote for them. The solution is not to murder those voters but for the mainstream parties to take that stuff into consideration and make sure the far right remains "fringe". There will always be far-righters, the trick is to minimise their influence.

The rise of Nazism really needs to be a wakeup call for the moderates: you aren't listening to some really important stuff, you need to start, and no it's not "racist".

Motherland, surely? -a is a feminine ending.

It's cheese Jim but not as we know it.
