"If we can't think for ourselves, if we're unwilling to question authority, then we're just putty in the hands of those in power. But if the citizens are educated and form their own opinions, then those in power work for us."
-Carl Sagan

@maziehirono@SecWar Another abysmal decision by @SecWar.
If he only knew a shred of military history (e.g., during the American Revolution, smallpox ravaged the Continental Army), he’d know that a healthy soldiery meant the difference between winning and losing. (Washington knew…)

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced the Department of Defense will no longer require U.S. service members to get the flu shot each year, calling the requirement “overly broad and not rational.”

@GneissName@MiaDelcato@FoxNews What I’ve said isn’t penetrating. It’s obtuse that you won’t accept or acknowledge that I approach things differently. (I don’t have a social media persona.) My time is valuable and too much has already been wasted. Have a good rest of your day.
@GneissName@MiaDelcato@FoxNews Here’s the difference between you and me: I accept that “it depends” is a valid answer, and if I don’t know an answer, I’ll say that I don’t know.
To me, your question is not one of opinion. I — me, myself — would refer to the law.
I’m sorry this is unacceptable to you.
@GneissName@MiaDelcato@FoxNews So, you have no response to my last post?
I gave you my answers, and they still hold for this question.
What is your broader point, claim, accusation, etc.?
@GneissName@MiaDelcato@FoxNews Also, I’m sorry that you don’t find asking for clarification satisfactory or necessary, but for me, nuance matters to form an educated response.
@GneissName@MiaDelcato@FoxNews Without context for the reason for a riot, I cannot give a yes or no answer to your question.
In cases of oppression, inciting a riot serves a purpose, e.g., the ghetto uprisings during WWII. However, inciting a riot after a soccer game is pure violence and without purpose.
@GneissName@MiaDelcato@FoxNews Are you asking in the context of protests, or are you separating the two? And what’s your definition of a riot? For example, is a riot simply an act of violence or can a riot also be an act of defense? Similar question with respect to the definition of incitement…
Example?
@GneissName@MiaDelcato@FoxNews Call me insane — after all, I know you have a penchant for making such capricious diagnoses at a distance — but I don’t condone any violent protests, left or right. See how easy that is?
