I think the old should replace the young on the front lines, and help resolve the problems the we old created, and now wish to have our young die to resolve.
Yahweh did not step up.
That p**** shows us what not to do.

Ours is unnatural.
That is why we should stop doing the stupid and immoral thing, and try to mimic our own natural ways.

Old people.
So: how are we supposed to get folks who look down on us, who don't listen to us, to put themselves, or folks like themselves, on the front line?
And how do you make them -- these unfearing oligarchs and non-listening oldsters -- go, to be in proximity to the fighting?Greatest I am wrote: ↑Tue Mar 29, 2022 4:49 pmDo they not have legs and a gun?henry quirk wrote: ↑Tue Mar 29, 2022 12:02 amhow are we supposed to get folks who look down on us, who don't listen to us, to put themselves, or folks like themselves, on the front line?Greatest I am wrote: ↑Mon Mar 28, 2022 7:46 pm I think the old should replace the young on the front lines, and help resolve the problems the we old created, and now wish to have our young die to resolve.
