It simply doesn't matter. What America does is automatically wrong. Can you imagine anyone praising Trump's America? The very concept is absurd. Let the rest of the world handle it, they are more qualified and less racist. If America DID do anything successful, imagine the pride and cheers of "USA! USA!" from the deplorables. It's a lose-lose situation.
Who said that America needs to be the one to do everything? Jesus Christ there are hundreds of countries in the world. America ranks near the bottom in just about any category you can imagine. Racist police, monstrous environmental policies, stupid citizens and an educational system that does nothing but turn out compliant corporate consumers. How about some other country spend their money instead? Put a stop to American bullying and American exceptionalism. Honestly, every time America tries to "improve" anything they do more harm than good.
Why aren't you mentioning the fact that the government confiscated (i.e. stole) all the land for these lines from the poor? And the poor got zero input into the process and frequently got shafted in payment? Seven wonders, yeah right.
One of mine was at Las Rambals on the day of the attack. When I heard the news my heart sank and a whole 30 seconds later when I checked on facebook and saw "marked herself safe" the moment was over.
Did you ever think that she was fine all along, and there was no crisis, and that you have been conditioned by the media to freak out? Why did your heart sink? You really, honestly, and truly thought that your friend had been killed? Yeah, no. That's what terror attacks are supposed to cause. You're helping the Islamic terrorists win with this kind of behavior.
Oh, the empathy is there. It's just that there's a fundamental disconnect between thinking people like most of Slashdot users, and feeling people, who think most of Slashdot users are emotionless robots. I have learned that there is no reasoning with feeling people. You can explain until you're blue in the face that the risk of death by terrorist attack is less than death by shark attack, and it won't make any difference. It's not a rational response, it's an emotional response.
Remember when we used to completely freak out about Islamic terror attacks in Europe? Remember the suicide bomber at the teenagers concert? Pray for Paris? The Belgium tourism video mocking the idea that terrorist attacks were a concern? The Barcelona attack sure was a yawner, nobody really got excited about it. It's just part of being a European these days.
This is why it's good America is dropping in influence throughout the world. Countries will be less intimidated and will refuse American bullying in the future.
What's worse, the growing tide of immigration moves people from places where they have low carbon footprints straight in to countries where they have extremely high carbon footprints. The West's insatiable greed for wealth is choking our atmosphere.
This is just more World Police bullshit. The world doesn't need America to bully its way across the planet. If you think American violence solves problems think again.
Well, that's easy. The content owners aren't trying to make money. Why would they? They're rich already. What they like most is CONTROL. They wish to control the content, and if someone isn't offering them huge bucks, then they're happy to decline. They don't make money, but who cares about that? What's important is maintaining the feeling of control.
With what military? Europe is weak and helpless. You can't even defend yourselves, much less help anyone else. And let's not pretend that Europe gives a SHIT about Americans. You've made your viewpoint quite clear, on every occasion you can. USA out of NATO. Leave you to yourselves, build your own goddamned military. Ami go home.
Trump's America. I thought that was obvious...the man just praised white supremacists. The smart people are fleeing now, don't wait until it's too late.
Mishandling classified information is a BIG crime which any government employee will tell you will put you in Leavenworth. Hillary sent tons of top secret info on her hidden server and her creature Comey cleared her. "No reasonable prosecutor would take such a case" bullSHIT. It's a slam-dunk case.
Occam's razor. The simplest explanation is the most likely. Which is more plausible, someone had a statistically unavailable internet connection, or the files were copied to a USB stick?
And in other news, it turns out Islamic State has used US currency to purchase goods and services. This clearly means we need to get rid of cash and move to a cashless society, where the government can track every single transaction you make, right down to the cherry 7-up you buy at 7-11. All due to Islamic terrorism. Frankly, I'm more afraid of the FBI than any Muslim.
Variations of "Make America Great Again" has been a staple of almost every politician running against an incumbent in the USA for quite some time. I've been hearing it for decades, and I can't imagine why anyone would be unaware of this slogan's long history.

It's Trump's slogan today and anyone who cites it is being overtly political. The whole topic has fuck-all to do with America and yet you're pulling it in to the conversation. Just stop. We have enough political bullshit already without you creating even more.
Remember, since we're not perfect, that puts us on exactly the same level as people who starved millions of their own countrymen to death and regularly nonconsensually harvest organs.
Using Trump's slogan makes it about Trump. So the Koreans are good at Starcraft? So what? Why bring Trump's slogan into it? Since when was America ever great at Starcraft? Since when did anyone but Koreans care about Starcraft? That game came out in the 90s for fuck's sake.

Shutting peoples opinions down is not fighting fascism. It *is* fascism!
The word "nazi" today more often indicates the presence of a radical leftist nut (or slimy left-wing propagandist) than it does actual nazis.

"I had to reboot the car." This is the first time I have ever seen this phrase written. We're in a new era.

Got a link to that?
It's not a barefoot and pregnant article. It's about aspies. You didn't read it. The summary lies, it's not about MRA. You've been deceived.

Thanks for that scolding comment that put Americans in their place. With attitudes like that, is there any wonder that we want out of Europe?
If you take that as evidence that women are inferior, then YOU are the misogynist.

You know way, way too much about the Nazis, friend. That kind of knowledge is suspiciously alt-right.
