    The best war to have with people like Fuentes & Kirk, is no war at all. Let them take each other down. Because in the end, the “purity test” they subject each other to will always fail and they will turn on each other like rabid dogs.

      I agree, but it sucks that half of the country is convinced that the other half of the country is at war with them, when the violence seems to be coming from inside the house.

      That’s probably inevitable, but I do wonder if highlighting these individuals to normies is valuable.

        They “think” the country is at war with them the way Nazi Germany “thought” Poland attacked their radio station.

        That’s how most war is tbh - a random small group of people insisting on it. Sometimes it’s two kings, or sometimes it’s just Putin, or a small group of world leaders. But most of the time people hate the most their direct neighbors and family, the people they interact with the most. That’s why most murders are personal and petty, cheating and breaking up, etc, not something big or ideological. War isn’t a very natural state of being for those in it, but it sure makes people at the top very wealthy and keeps young women single and lonely.
