Yeah, until I get some kind of moderation intervention explaining to me why it isn't, I'm going to have to continue to assert that in a thread that literally says that blood is on the hands of voters because of the current president's military decisions it is absolutely on topic to compare that to the atrocities that have been committed by this country's leadership in that region for a long time. I get an explanation of how I'm breaking a rule though? Then I will totally accept that. Originally Posted by anmar85You have been asked nicely to stay on topic several times and refuse to do so.

You have been asked nicely to stay on topic several times and refuse to do so. This thread is about lives lost because of a botched withdrawal plan by Senile Biden. He can’t explain removing the military before the civilians or giving the Taliban a kill list of Americans and Afghanis. He can’t explain abandoning Bagram, etc.Keep to your own topic. This was your opening premise and your opening remarks
No one in this thread is rehashing the past 20 years - this thread is about the botched withdrawal plan. So please stay on topic Originally Posted by berryberry
Over 10,000 Americans remain in Afghanistan and won't be able to get out.How many ended up being evacuated by the 31st or left in other ways than the airport? How many remain? How many were killed? How many were legitimately escorted by the Taliban to the airport? Turned away?
The Taliban will hunt them down and execute them with no one to stop them and no press to show this. Senile Biden knows this but doesn't give a fuck about American citizens. He just wants this out of the news because it makes him look bad

The title of the topic is "This blood is on senile Biden's hands as well as the hands of every idiot who voted for him"That’s a topic for another thread. You can answer the OPs question in one sentence. We were evacuating. Not in an aggressive war stance. A defensive one. The war was over. Was Biden’s plan to withdrawal successfull. That’s the question. Not what aboutism. You’re trying to make it that.
I'm retorting that assertion with the fact that thousands of innocent people have been injured or killed due to questionable military decisions by US leadership in that region during the course of the war. Then I am using that assertion to question how far the logic of the topic's title goes. Does that logic extend to previous leadership and the people that voted them into office or not? If that is somehow off topic then please explain how or report me and have moderation explain how. Originally Posted by anmar85

The US leaving innocent people out to dry in Afghanistan has kind of been the status quo for a long time now. Originally Posted by anmar85

typical liberal deflection, and so predictable, find something thats so very distantly related or the substance is similar and push the original thought into a grey area or off on another totally separate tangent.
and this guy is so unconscious to his response because he is trained to auto deflect and protect the democrat pov without even looking at the truth of the matter, hes on auto spin and probably doesnt even realize it , libs are so automatic and predictable
and to compare this so called echo chamber to the echo chambers of the entire liberal media ,print ,culture and entertainment echo chambers is so inane and asinine i can only hope it is a reflection of the intelligence and comprehension of the typical democrat voter. Originally Posted by mrmxmr

I'm not trying to make this into whataboutism, but if the title of the thread is that the blood of this action is on the voters' hands, then I'm going to have to contest that the aggressive and questionable actions during the course of the war would have to be on voters' hands as well according to that line of logic. If someone disagrees with that, then I'm more than happy to hear them out on why.
To simplify it as to how it relates to the topic again. The topic at hand is that Joe Biden's voter base shares a degree of the responsibility for his actions in Afghanistan. If that's the case, then who shares the brunt of responsibility for questionable military decisions in the past, present, and future? I mean after all, this isn't an echo chamber, so I assume this line of thinking would welcome a broader discussion beyond "Old man bad"
Yeah, you got the wrong dude here. I'm proudly an independent. In my life I've voted everywhere from the Green Party to the Libertarians. I'm just trying to place the logic of this thread into some kind of historical context. Originally Posted by anmar85

If someone disagrees with that, then I'm more than happy to hear them out on why.I won’t go “there” because the voters didn’t devise this atrocious plan. They didn’t order it. Biden did. So I can’t go there. You’re spinning again. It’s a two part question. It’s still your right to be ignorant in this country. Apparently, 81 million people chose ignorance over reality.
