Etiquette



DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

Just a thought

 Came across this tidbit this morning:

Odds of China invading Taiwan up 'drastically,' government think tank says


Since everyone else is thinking of expanding their empire.............

 I started musing, and the more I mused, the more I wondered ......... WHY NOT THE U.S. ?

Just a thought, but what I was musing about was - why isn't the U.S. invading Cuba and Venezuela and Brazil? The first two are NOT Ukraine and easily conquered. Brazil might be a fight but I suspect Jair Bolsonaro could easily be overthrown, as he is not even popular in his own country.

SO WHY NOT?

Because the U.S. isn't Russia? Because we don't want to get into invading other countries? Because we are stretched too thin around the world as it is? Because we respect borders?

YEAH OK.

We don't need no hardline Righties like Bolsonaro or Commies like Cuba and Venezuela polluting up the Americas, do we?

Anyone with me on this one?


OK OK, on further reflection, forget Brazil, the US has to stop the migration of countries like 
Elsavador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Better to invade that threesome!
