"I did not carry a weapon overseas in my country's service so I could come home see... "

He’s flashing his Imperialist badge there. Here’s one of the actual tweets, check some of the replies on how terrifying it looks to people outside the USA.


He could have made that look a lot less like a Freudian slip. (Another reason why diplomacy skills matter.)

I mean, I can see where you're coming from. But he was in the military deployed abroad. It's kinda what they do. He didn't make any attempt at sugarcoating that, particularly when what he had to do overseas wasn't his point.

I just see this as another reason to STOP ALL THE TWEETING.

A'ight, four drafts later because you guys are worth the effort.

A few years ago Obama gave a speech that inspired me to write my Member of Parliament about our commitment to NATO. Diplomatic skills matter. As the Arctic Ocean thaws there’s going to be a tough point of conflict, and Canada and Nordic countries are going to need America as a partner. Buttigieg’s comments (2017 to present) might not have been meant as they’re definitely being taken outside the US. Overall, I like his cut of the jib, certainly in the vector of that Obama* fellow, probably could use another 5-10 years of relevant political experience but that's just my impression. But in the wake of this last few years, and to a lesser extent the Dubya years, America is going to need its A game in the diplomatic field. Otherwise there’s going to be a lot of “ok boomerica” going around.

*Drones! Drones everywhere in an unholy conflagration he inherited from decades prior foreign policy decisions plus blind happenstance.

Oh wow, an Alberta energy company just distributed an image depicting some kinda rape fantasy image of Greta Thunberg. Google that shit yourself if you need to be traumatized.

Narang said she called the general manager of X-Site, Doug Sparrow, asking him if he knew about the sticker that appears to depict the rape of a minor. He said he was aware of it, according to Narang, and his response was, “She’s not a child, she’s 17.”

"We wouldn't have dreamed of issuing the sticker if she'd been a couple of years younger. We're not evil pedophiles. But jokes about raping 17-year-olds are just perfectly normal good clean fun. Where's your sense of humour?"

It's about to be stickered all over anything connected with your company.

You know.....yeah okay, I get it. But.....I dunno. I'd have to read those books before I knocked them. "Don't judge a book by its cover" was made for situations like this.

When I was in elementary school there were books that talked about serious topics like death, abuse, or catastrophe in kid-understandable ways and that usually meant some kind of childish story. I remember being given a comic where a kid is about to get molested by a babysitter and actual Spider-Man busts in to save him and of course give the reader advice about what you should do if someone tries to molest you. Describing it sounds so cringe I know, but also....it's like decades later and I still remember the story, and the message, and like Head & Shoulders making your scalp tingle I figure that means it's working.
