By tolerating the disease right up until it causes its host to dehumanize other people… and then we act shocked like it’s some new, separate disease.

You’re failing to grasp the nuance between reluctantly supporting genocide and fully supporting genocide.

Let’s not experiment on clever new prison ideas. Let’s just copy Finland.

That is basically how ITAR export controls work, but only for much more complicated weapon parts like nukes and fighter jets.
