While you may not agree that what she did makes her a traitor, according to US law, she is.

Sure, one could argue that there are better ways to have done it.
I’m not sure what those would be, given the current propensity of the US government to punish whistleblowers rather than react to what the whistle is being blown on. but I’m not arguing that there was no better way whatsoever. Who knows?

You think she had any idea what she sending out?

War sucks. People die. Mistakes are made. There is no perfect military. It doesn’t exist.

Ah yes, the ‘crime’ of exposing war crimes. How dare she.

I’d argue she kept her oath to America. The people perpetrating and covering up murderous war crimes are those betraying their country.

Her ‘criminal actions’ were to uncover war crimes being committed in the name of the United States. How is that reprehensible, but the murder being covered up by the military not so?
I would consider her actions to be morally justified, and patriotic (rather than nationalistic) to boot.
Holding ones’ country to a high…

Uncovering war crimes does not a traitor make. There should be more ‘traitors’ around, human rights are more important than hollow patriotism.

“Instead of getting your back up, why not engage in conversation?”

Yum! I have mine with crumbled feta and drizzled with chilli olive oil, also on sourdough.

You have a degree in psychology? Me too, and I think you might need to revisit yours if you think that being transgender is in any way a ‘bandwagon’.

1. Young children who experience gender dysphoria often end up gay rather than trans. So no, they aren’t automatically in tune with their gender identity. It’s more complex than boy or girl - or at least a young child’s understanding of boy or girl.

It doesn’t help that, for a long time, “gender” and “sex” were synonyms.

That and other dictionary definitions reflect the common use of the word, as many tend to conflate sex and gender, but also show the primary definition as being a different phenomenon to sex.

They were actually never synonyms. Gender used to be a grammatical term, and was broadened in the 1950s to be a separate term from sex, usually referring to a person’s own internal sense of being male, female, both, none etc.

I judge by how people treat each other and not what the person they decide to fuck or marry looks like.

Actually, ‘sexual racism’ appears to pretty closely associated with holding more general racist attitudes. So it does make a difference.

You’re obviously just biased because you’re mad about caramel and work for Cadbury, KaramelloKoala.

It is a distinct possibility that he may be punking you in order to get you to try it.

Yeah, I also want to try it but at the same time I don’t want to be stuck with a whole block of that stuff.
