What you're basically saying.....
By the very nature of someone taking an action they've justified that action to themselves, just because someone takes an action doesn't mean they've justified it to themselves. And if you say that's a contradiction you're not nuanced enough. You should listen and learn from me more and admit you're too dull to understand.
I've been talking about nuance all along. It's startling that you still don't understand what is being written in plain English.
What I've said is that not every action is necessarily justified, but when you see someone sacrificing their life for a cause, you can bet that they've justified it to themselves.
Why is that so hard for you to understand?
Anyway, I'm done with you, and this exercise in casting pearls in front of swine. You go back to playing with your Legos, now.
Translation..... I contradicted myself now I'm going to go away shouting about how clever I am and how stupid you are.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
