Good thing we (the US) lost the war, or this lady would probably have her own team of lobbyists running their country.

    And what exactly is “smug” about pointing out that you should source your information?

      The word SHOULD is absolutely always the imposition of an external morality. that YOU subjectively believe I should do something doesn’t make your moral opinion objective or applicable to me. So go should someone else to death.

      But you also did the whole “I’m just a fun google guy reminding you! And I had enough time to get this picture of soup! But not enough to go do my own research!”

      If you want a source ASK for one like we’re equal adults in a shared space, don’t come along and act like you’re everyone’s parent or the local cop and demand people work for you with your “should” morality. You lost case.

      If you WANT to find the information yourself, you SHOULD go find it for your fucking self. Not do some friendly fire cop thing posing as some kind of thought leader/monitor or groupen fuhrer/commander then shooting into its a debate or like this is a space where there’s a spread of misinformation or like that’s what was happening.

      So yeah, take your “should” morality and shove it up your over inflated sense of moral importance. Some of us are currently just trying to relax here, and aren’t on duty.

      You want to play that game go do it where it’s important and needed: in mainstream right wing spaces that have Trumpist Libertarian Nazis in them, as I linked earlier. Don’t try to start petty shit at random. Direct your intentions where they become: among the uncritical rightwing who are the actual threat.

      That’s where I do it, that’s where you should do it, but P.S they don’t like the shoulding parental approache either. It’s a bad mode to approach most adults with.
