Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it. Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!

What a mystery, hmm.
No it wasn't. Learn some actual history.
I think China may also be relevant but whatever.

History books are full of propaganda, listen to Mello.

How so? By the way this is called a logical fallacy. It goes like this, if someone disagrees with you they are a Putin apologist, however it simply does not logically follow. For example it could be that you think giving weapons to Ukraine will prolong a war that they will lose anyway and that negotiating a peace deal with Russia will save more lives and possibly put Ukraine in a better situation. This does not imply one is a Putin apologists, just that you gave a different approach. Sure you can debate which approach could work or have the best outcome.
You are also wrong in that there are a considerable number of people on the right that are very pro war with Russia or anybody else, all you have to do is look at how the GOP votes. This sweeping claim that people on the right are Putin apologists simply does not hold water. I get that it is a nice talking point but it makes no sense once your think about it.
As for the original posts, yes we are kind in a cold war with both Russia and China. Perhaps nuclear weapons is what keeping a hot shooting war from happening.
Meaningless word salad. If you can't state what you believe clearly, just refrain from posting.

The 8.53 AM post is very clear and kind of obvious to any who thinks about it for a second. Not to mention that all one has to do is check the voting records of Senate to see that 8.53 AM post is correct.
I almost get the sense you are a bot since the 6.54PM post sounds like AI generated repose to any kind argument or statement longer than three words.
Not only did you use a logical fallacy in your original post but you also used one in your 6.54 post. Now I suppose if you are just a bot this could be understandable but I would guess even a AI web crawler would be smarter than this. I leave it as as an exercise for you to see which fallacies you have used.
