Ah yeah, I thought he was drafted. Thanks!

Thanks for reading more carefully than me!

I can’t find anything on Walter Hallstein and Adolf Heusinger being nazis or committing war crimes. Looks like the former was an academic drafted in the army and the latter a high-ranking officer who began his career before the nazis.

I get that Heusinger can be seen as complicit (he must have known for whom he worked and didn’t quit), but what about Hallstein?

The population won’t grow infinitely. People have in average two surviving children when mortality rate is high. If mortality decreases thanks to higher living standards, there is a population boom because more than two children survive. Birth rate then decrease to about two children per woman and population stabilizes. You can argue on why this happens, but this is just observation from Europe to Africa, from the Americas to Asia.

Honestly impressive!

In english, “I know you are, but what am I” is a childlish rebuttal to name-calling. It’s like saying “no, it’s not me, it’s you” or “it’s the one who says it who is”.

It’s the degree zero of rebuttal becaude there’s no argument. In this joke, the rebuttal actually works in a court setting and seems to convince the judge.
