I'll start with this quote since I agree with it and it might help alleviate some of the extremist paranoia and ignorance boiling up in Xel's amygdala.
"It is all up to the populace to decide what the state should do and considering the western states either don't have the jurisdiction, character, interest or desire to stop companies that do immoral business abroad, it is up to us consumers to put our feet down while they are still not shackled."
If you can prove that someone is committing a crime, go right ahead and tell the police or send the facts to various newspapers and across the internet. You won't face execution since we live in a democracy.
"Actually, I don't want to participate in this discussion any more."
You want to discontinue the discussion because you know your argument is defunct and you have some pathological desire to claim backward tyrants on the other side of the planet are responsible for all our wealth and that democracies should be penalised.

I can tell you people are paniccing as these quotes of idiocy testify.
"Well, these gunmen wouldn't have a shot at power or dominion if it was't for the fact that our ancestors beat Africa and parts of Asia into a swagger"
What decisions exactly would have prevented this as democratic european powers de-colonialised after world war 2? If you are suggesting democratic countries must pay for the actions of tyrants in their history you have completely by-passed my argument. Which is not suprising since you obviously have no intention of discussing the matter.
"It really doesn't matter if you gained immortality in exchange for the exploitation of other countries and cultures (Slavery, Colonization)."
What? I'm not immortal and I have never enslaved or aided in colonising other countries or cultures.
"This "end before means" apathetic attitude and acceptibility of unethical behavior is what breeds this human lust for war, strife and unending conflict."
What the fuck do you expect me to do? Go back in time and single-handedly bring all the slavers and tyrants to justice? All I can do is support democracy and oppose tyranny, which is incidentally what I am doing when I stand up for people's right not to be judged for crimes they have not committed.
"There are people who aren't enjoying democracy and all it has to offer...and it's not tyranny's fault. It's Democracy's."
Naive dumbass, I fail to see why you think democracy is evil because it does not eliminate all sufferring and crime in humanity. No one said it was perfect, but compared to tyranny it's a hell of a lot better.
