    No matter how you swing this, letting two million people starve is a barbaric act and there is no justification. What an absolute piece of shit. This is why we will never get off this rock.

        If you were a leftist you would have had better historical and material analysis to what’s going on rather than just “religion bad”.

        You know that it’s not rare, right? 84% of people worldwide are affiliated with a religion. Do you want 84% of people to drown?

            So yes? You want anyone who believes in Noah’s ark to die? I wouldn’t call you a leftist.

                Those same people would admit a flood should coat the earth to kill all sinners… shouldn’t die to a flood?

                people who believe that the flood was god’s greatest betrayal of mankind and who literally worship god as part of a compact to ensure god never does anything like it again?

                Yeah, they shouldn’t die for that.

                But thank you, I’ve never had someone try to insult me by calling me a pleb while insisting they’re a leftist. It’s… ear-ringing.

                    Plebeians were specifically the free roman citizens, explicitly not owned. Please heed your own advice, internet person that seems to be economically left but socially further right than the average nazi.
