Vox going the break a few eggs to make an omelette route. Could I publish a piece in Vox using the same argument to justify what the Mongols did to cities throughout Eurasia?

Yglesias is incredible.

Just when you think he's reached a level of stupidity never before seen in the world of commentary, he goes and tops himself. I think it's because he enjoys being topped, and who better to top him than himself.

It was a TV show that went into decline and suffered from bad writing. Nothing more needs to be said of GOT.

But in the real world, the Left is always slaughtering people as a part of a "sales campaign" to convince the world that the mass murderers are the good guys.

A strong government? It was already a strong government. The realm did become more like a representative republic like the US because of her actions, but that was not her intent. Then sansa split off and turned the north into North Korea

I’m sure you could for Stalin in the Ukraine.

Scratch a modern so-called “progressive” and you’ll often find a maniac lusting to use the government to regulate virtually everything in life that isn’t sex.

Don't know who this Yglesias gut is but the arguments against his are stupid.

Anyone remember WW2?

Dresden? Tokyo? Nagasaki?

All had plenty of civilians and women and children but we sent our bombers over them and burned them to ashes.

Are we mad tyrants?

Stupid arguments by people who have forgotten their own history.

I watched the last two episodes, not having seen any others. So, I started watching from the beginning. I'm in season 3. It's obvious that Daenerys was nuts from the start. She's clearly in the crazy zone on the hot-crazy matrix.

It's also clear the Daenerys and Cersei could not co-exist. Mutual assured destruction awaits them. With tough men out of the way, the women are leading the world to armageddon.

And John Snow was right to kill her to make sure that did not happen.

Uhmmm…

It’s a TV show, for Gosh sakes!

Do not confuse with real life.

There’s plenty of actual Left-winger supported horrors in the world that actually exist and are ongoing.

—Killing babies and calling it “Women’s Rights”
—Supporting Islam and Sharia law that actually suppresses women and calling it Religious Rights”
—Supporting sex traffickers bringing minors into the USA and calling it “Immigration Rights”
—Letting pedophiles and sex perverts in toilets and showers with little girls and calling it “LGBQT Rights”

To name but a few...
