  1. Freedom of speech is a Western cultural concept that goes much farther than the government. That it is being interpreted so narrowly is a big problem. People get into echo chambers and do not hear opposing points of view. This is destructive to a society and will end poorly.

    You just set the flag to overwrite without prompting.

    Send aid to wealthy petro-states? Why? They have plenty of money. What would that accomplish?

    Why is this racist comment modded up to +4? "Don't trust those thieving Turks"? WTF people?

    The problem isn't a shortage of workers. The problem is a shortage of workers willing to work for starvation wages. You don't realize the number of companies that would go out of business tomorrow without an endless influx of cheap foreign labor.

  6. No wonder they dropped their "Don't Be Evil" slogan. Just in time to transition into an arm of the military industrial complex.

    This just in, woman hating has a 100x more chance of being directed at women. Who knew?

    As hilariously over the top as your post is, ads are neither barbaric nor medieval. In fact they are quite modern and barbarian and medieval societies don't have them. Ads are signs of progressivism.

  9. Why the comparison? on In China's Booming Tech Scene, Women Battle Sexism and Conservative Values (reuters.com) · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Comparing to America? Why? It is supremely idiotic to believe America is some shining beacon of women's rights. Online mobs regularly go after any woman who dares stand up for herself. Hate speech and death threats are common. Remember #gamergate?

    Congress controls spending, not the president. Can't blame Reagan. And we really need to blame globalism instead. It's what ruined our working class and is crushing our middle class. All so some Chinese can drive Audis.

    Bitchute, www.bitchute.com. It's the up and comer. Uses distributed bandwidth so it can't be censored. Upload your videos to both sites at the same time. Hopefully the network effect can catch on and we can get a viable alternative to YouTube's SJW censors.

    Those are novelties for tourists, not food for real people. You're supposed to buy one, take a photo of yourself biting it, post it on social media, and then throw it away. I guess you didn't visit any grocery stores, because you find them there.

    Let us not forget the contributions if the French communists, who aided the Nazis. Remember, internationalism means you don't believe in countries or patriotism. Communism was allies with the Nazis at the time of the invasion, and the French did what they could to help.

  17. So, a spare of stories in the media designed to scare people, succeeded in scaring people. Thus the tremendous power of the media. This isn't news.

    Your denigration of legitimate dissent is paid Russian trolling. We Americans have a long tradition of heterodox thought, and any American would know that. We argue amongst ourselves all the time to figure out the best way forward. Only an authoritarian would think the government decided course is the best one. How's the weather in St. Petersburg, Ivan?

    The American people do not benefit from funding a free navy for the world. In fact, it has greatly harmed us. We're being put out of good jobs because people on the other side of the planet will work for $3 a day. The world free rides on American drug research while American people die because they can't afford to subsidize the prices.

    Collective ideologies demand the good of the group before the good of the individual. Are you in favor of collectivism? Why are you arguing against your own side?

  24. So what's your solution to solve the free rider problem? The test of the world isn't paying it's fair share and is laughing all the way to the bank. America is literally going bankrupt doing all this stupid shit for free. This simply cannot continue. The whole world considers us deplorable and it's time to back off. Let them share in the costs equally, it's the only solution that's fair for everyone.

    Why is it America's job to do everything for the world? It's just expected everything will be free of charge. GPS, military protection, US Navy keeping the sea routes open for wealthy nations like Germany to make a mint on exports, American citizens dying from hyper expensive medical costs while the world benefits from cures we develop, the list goes on. It's bankrupting us to carry all these free riders along. It's literally killing our people. The world's voice has been loud and strong telling the Americans to back off and stop bullying. It's about time everyone learned to ride the bike without training wheels and pay for themselves. The transition period will be painful but ultimately beneficial for everyone. Short term pain long term gain.
