That's a result of pacific methods losing efficacy.

Of course it's can.
given the rise of fascism around the world, I agree. Let's go back to treating nazis the way we did in 1942.
Ignoring them until they become a problem that actually affects us?
Well Australia was already fighting against the nazis since 1939, and still going in 1942, that's not ignoring them
We're ignoring them now. Penny Wong hasn't even written a letter telling everyone how 'deeply concerned' she is by the rise (in popularity) of white nationalist parties, like Pauline Hanson's One Nation.
The nazis were a problem well before '39
And yet their comment said "The way we did in 1942". Not "the way we did prior to 1939". So wtf is your point here?
Trust in Govt down. Mostly in young men cause the promises of the social contract are broken.
For women, we never had any doubt, it's never been good.
"Young men learn grim truths taught to women during puberty."
People who think violence is never justified simply haven't experienced (or been creative enough to think of) a situation in which it clearly is. I think people like this generally have poorly thought out or impractical beliefs.
I'll be honest if your idea of creativity is "let's do violence" you're pretty fuckin' bad at creativity. That's the first thing a monkey thinks when it finds a stick.
Ok, but I didn't say violence was creative. I said being unable to concieve of a situation in which violence is justified shows a lack of creativity.
Oh, okay. Like those gun nuts that sit around praying that someone would break into their house just so they can kill them and have it be justified?
Yeah, I see where you're coming from.
Pretty sure the monkey's first thought is "now I can reach that itch".
Depends on the cause doesn't it? I mean, Australia fought in WW2.
I'm down with that. Down under even. Dingo Deez Nuts
Yep
Sounds about right
