Occam’s Razor.

Stalinist. Makes sense - twist away. Blocked.

It was a cease fire proposal - you have to start somewhere. But Russia and China think it’s better to use Gazans a political pawns in the upcoming US elections, so surprise, surprise - some would disagree.

“…restricting blood flow to the brain” doesn’t sound too smart. I can get my jollies without giving someone brain damage, thankyouverymuch.

And this is an actual thing - spokespeople are generally female now as we as humans have a greater capacity for empathy and more inherent respect for women. At one point spokes people were all men… And nowadays, even the most evil companies push the women out front so that they can be a bit more evil for a just a little bit longer before the shit hits the fan.

Basically evil people, male and female, will still do the same shit, lying dishonest job, so long as they are paid for it. We just cut the women a lot more slack.

Yeah. Lying does that.
