@SevaUT @DouthatNYT "Should high schoolers be able to buy guns? Okay but what about 18-year-old high schoolers? Okay but what about just long guns, should 18-year-olds, in school or not, be able to buy long guns at will? Ok: What if an 18 year old had to hunt to raise his family in the arctic..." — PolitiTweet.org

@SevaUT @DouthatNYT the reason i blew it off is that when you're saying no to a couple of real and potentially imminent propositions (US instigating some kind of conflict with China or Russia) it's unwise and obnoxious to get drawn into saying yes to some putatively parallel hypothetical proposition — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@SevaUT to clarify, i think you have in mind a remark i made in response to a prodding question @DouthatNYT asked me on the radio because i wasn't biting on various prompts to agree we ought to go to war with China or Russia. so Ross asked about this hypothetical. i blew it off. — PolitiTweet.org

@shifrinson @SevaUT We seem to have somewhat limited control over who gets nukes and who doesn't as it stands, right? — PolitiTweet.org

"Giving the rip-roaring success of American military intervention in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, it appears to me that if China were to invade Taiwan, American military intervention against that nuclear-armed superpower would definitely clear things right up bloodlessly" — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@cratefacts @timeswang is your implication that if the US fails to respond to aggression anywhere in the world that is tantamount to surrender — PolitiTweet.org

@timeswang @LRAYoungBoy Just to be clear, is the implication here that it's racist *not* to want to enter into a nuclear war with China? This discourse kicks ass — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@cratefacts @timeswang if China decides to invade Taiwan, bloodshed involving Taiwanese children seems inevitable. It's bad, and it's inevitable. If the USA gets involved, now we're talking more bloodshed which was not inevitable, and also nuclear war. I realize this is hard to discuss with one hand — PolitiTweet.org

@isaiah_bb @timeswang bzzzt that'll never happen because captain america will swoop in and drop kick the nukes right out of the air and into outer space stealing the USA a last minute victory, and all the other nations will clap. the USA has won every war it's been in for the last 60 years — PolitiTweet.org

There it is. Moms against Drunk Driving don't care about general public safety or the damage cars do to the climate. They just don't want their children killed in car accidents. Disgusting. — PolitiTweet.org

@JonSchw73589513 there are wars that are more just than others, but this is pretty much the opposite of a question of absolute principle. you're asking about specific countries and the next several years! — PolitiTweet.org
