This is bloody shocking. Not only dismantling and manipulating law institutions in the US, and Netanyahu trying the same in Israel, now this.
“It is not the ICC that Rubio is dismantling brick by brick – but the rules-based international order that grew out of the ashes of world war two.”
Err, I’m the other side of fifty. It was a flippant comment made in a vernacular that was appropriate for the response.
Please stop trying to language police the situation.
“My generation”… What a pompous way of talking.
Your generation? All of you? Really? Or is that some generalist bullshit dressed up as fact?
What are you really angry about?
You reckon I’m policing the language? That is your judgement. Are you persecuting me for using language in a particular way? Isn’t that what you were saying I do? Crikey, you were talking about a ‘literary device’. Wasn’t that a bit, I don’t know, patronising?
I was making a bit of fun at the way we were taught.
Here’s the thing. You keep making assumptions about things and those assumptions are wrong.
I’m not angry, not even a little.
I just think you are someone who has mistaken contrarianism for conversation.
You made an incorrect assumption thinking I was from the US and rather than reflecting on your own comprehension skills, you decided it was my punctuation that led you astray.
You are now following it up with some classic whataboutism.
Please stop. No one is getting anything from this.
…and I know your first instinct is to write a reply correcting me in some form, because that’s what you do, but really, it would be great if you didn’t.
What a lecture! 🤣
Don’t tell me what I can and cannot do.
Stop putting labels on me.
Stop bullying.
