The problem lately has been that ISIS was not fighting Assad, but opportunistically rolling up territory in Iraq instead, where the Iraqi army presented quite a bit less resistance than Assad's army did. Consequently, the price for giving ISIS a free rein was to risk letting them conquer a shockingly weak Iraq and control its massive oil reserves. Which could stimulate Iran to come in and make a grab for Iraq, too.
Take the oil out of the equation and we could let them play grabass all they want, without a second thought. But the world economy still runs on oil, so we can't play "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" there.

What about people who say: "I don't own a television, because I always watch tv programs on my computer, or occasionally my phone, so there's no real point in my owing yet another screen, unless it's so I can say I own a television, so as to avoid annoying all you thin-skinned folks who find this mere fact of my television non-ownership irritating."

[...]sometimes i just think the thing that's so corrosive and terrible about ~thinkpieces~, & which makes tilding them mandatory, & which separates them from a history of writing responsive to culture, is just the fucking tone, man, like jesus christ does everybody have to sound so annoying, & like they were just about to surfboard in & do the same thing but better were it not for the inadequate example at hand usurping them so shittily. like if somebody could write from a slightly less oppositional angle than the arbiter of all amateur culture, dispatching their joaquin-phoenix-in-gladiator-thumbs-down verdict, positing every shortcoming as a stupid oversight & subject to simple correction - It's bullshit; It's shitty journalism - i feel like it would be easier to deal with them. there's such value to reading something & feeling it instantly broaden your parameters or awareness of what somebody was saying or wasn't, whether their priorities were shortsighted or subject to biases. but Let Me Tell You Why Serial Is Doing It Wrong is so hard to take i think.

something about the internet that really helps my self esteem is that criticism is always undercut by just the broader aesthetic decoration of the medium, that you're always able to lean on saying, "well, thank you for your valuable input, DongSword_1995, i will take it on board"get at me in the serial thread, Rip Van Wanko!, i can take it
