I rest my case. Once again, a debate stops cold when one says something as
simple as that the state should sponsor fitness or something else on my
list, they will be promptly accused of supporting the Holocaust or being a
fascist. Our bad karma is the complete halting of fair debate on numerous
topix because you'll be x'ed out with a big fat Hitler label. loser can't
debate.

3) To consider "pysical fittness a mission of the state" is indeed fascist.
4) The 14-baby-lady got them from irresponsible bio-technologists.
5) You're allowed to enjoy any art you prefer, but please don't tell me what
my preferences should look like. You know, many people think GR to be crap.
6) I would like to know more about Cryptoville and also where the thousands
of EU-citizens the CIA did abduct after 9/11 are now, if still alive.
7) I've never heard a word here on Guantanamo or Abu Ghuraib.
8) In this country's history we had enough people "pumping their fists in
the
air with joy" in political contexts. But if you feel that need, just go
ahead
and visit a concert or a soccer game.
9) I have a thing for whips.
10) I believe there is a canon.
Yours in discourse,
Kai
