Americans have been convinced that is socialism and therefore the greatest evil.

If I'm watching YouTube on my TV, I mute it when anything longer than a 5 second ad comes on. If what I'm watching is less than 10 minutes, I'll just back out and start in again, usually it will come up without the ad, then seek to where I left off. Although oftentimes lately, I'll be watching a 5 minute video, and I'll get 1 minute in and get hit with an unskippable 2 minute ad, I just quit YouTube for the day.

The sun isn't space, it has plenty of oxygen.

Also, we had a deaf girl working with us. If someone exploded a tire (it didn't happen often, but it was more than never) it would startle her too, she didn't hear anything, but she said she could feel it.

Oblige pickiness in boys? They'll be picky as men.

I feel like this isn't necessarily a bad thing... My son is super picky, and it's annoying for sure, but it doesn't deserve to be in the same list as dishonesty or aggression... It means he knows what he likes and won't let anyone push him into something he's not comfortable with. He'll try new things on occasion, but he has to be ready for it, if we push him he just digs in and refuses to budge. I've had the best results with "hey bud, want to try this? It's really good" and when he says no, "suit yourself, more for me." It doesn't work often, but when it does, it sticks. New food option unlocked. My wife will bargain with him, and she gets him to try stuff, but only to get what she's offering, even if he ends up liking it, he needs to keep up the appearance that he doesn't because it's been made into such a big deal...

when did Israel specifucally taregt civilians?

They do it often. Here's a particularly nasty one from 2009, there are plenty more if you care to look.

Becoming more conservative is a result of having amassed a fortune to protect. No fortune, nothing to conserve.

The problem is you can't judge people's actions on what we know after the fact, you have to look at what the person knew in the moment, and for the residents, it sure seemed like someone was breaking into their house, and it's not reasonable to expect to have a dialogue with a burglar.
