    One of the dastardly arms of this dreaded cabal, how awful it would be to let others access the internet UNCENSORED :o

    How did the Spanish-American war start?

    A horribly timed accident, yellow journalism from private entities who would say anything to sell more papers, and Teddy Roosevelt itching for a war while President McKinley and the rest of his administration preferred not to?

    How did the Americans and the Soviets differ in their handling of Imperial Japan’s horrific Unit 731?

    The Americans offered Unit 731 immunity from prosecution in exchange for their work, while the Soviets offered a much smaller number of Unit 731 members sentencing leniency in exchange for their work?

    Who was the first state-sponsor of terror?

    You’re fucking kidding me.

        Ah, of course, I should have recognized how very simple and clear the world is.

          It’s much clearer when you don’t assume that there are any “good guys”

            … okay? I don’t? But you keep tilting at windmills. You’ll kill a giant one day.
