The country that heavily invested in science and technology, much more so than any other nation in history, is going to lead the world in those fields?!

Generally this can be solved with hurricane ties (to prevent the structure from completely flying) and a community tornado shelter in affected regions. It won't eliminate damage but will reduce it as much as can be.

Yes... They share the land. And it worked out great. Jews were safely living in Palestine along side Christians and Muslims for longer than any form of Israel ever existed.

It worked out fantastically, until a British Nazi and a group of white quasi Jewish people came up with Zionism and convinced the German Nazis and US totally not Nazis that it would be better if Jews all were forced back to Israel once and for all.

Until Zionism was invented in the late 1800s, it was unthinkable to have a Jewish state (since that's against the religion), and unthinkable to oppress the natives of the land of Palestine to make a Jewish state.

If you believe this then you have no idea what the conflict is or what has been happening in the region, pretty much ever.

We're the Germans genocided to end their genocide?

If you ever find yourself on a side that's pro genocide, you're the bad guy. There might be worse guys, but probably not. Being the team of 'well they're promising to not genocide me so let them have some genocide as a treat' does worse than nothing, and historically hasn't worked out so well.

If two parties are the pro genocide parties, then you logically cannot support either. It's worth voting third party to register your displeasure, while working towards other goals that will hopefully bring real change when the opportunity arises.

In any case nothing is ever solved or improved by genocide. So any option with genocide is the worst option among the infinite things you can attempt to do.

It's just the natural progression of forbidden language.

I'm not sure of the filters but a really easy one is:

Dim is considered too rude, so use the medical term closest to it, 'retard', retard becomes to rude so you use disabled. Disabled becomes too rude so you use differently abled, and so on. Forever.

Or; commit suicide -> go kill yourself -> go jump off a bridge -> go commit die -> be self unalived

All censored words and ideas go through this, which is why you should improve the material conditions of people so they can have enough time to empathize with others and avoid saying particularly bad words and ideas.

When you apply it to really common words and ideas, it evolves even faster and dumber.
