US riots will always be localized or at least treated as such by the media, and thus isolated from the rest of the country. It’ll just be more city riots that further divide both sides, giving one justification for cracking down on the other

“You wouldn’t download a car…”

At the pay-to-play rate our society is going, I fucking will

As in, it is perpetually 4:20 PM on the moon?

That’s why they play a whole different game than us. He isn’t worried about paying back that interest or loan, he’s trying to find a way to make that $2m pay him back 1% or more per interest period. They never have to consider the loan amount, because those interest and payments will be done in 10 years while the profits from that loan will explode into hundreds of millions.

See? Anyone can do it, it’s honestly really fucking easy to come up with a million dollar idea. The hard part is that first couple million dollars. If you aren’t born with it, you will literally never have access to that type of wealth.

Why does Xi think he gets any say? He’s showing his full hand already, and it’s actually pathetic. Already saying that it will have to be taken by force. So he’s admitting that the people of Taiwan, if given a choice, may not choose to join China. Let’s give everyone a vote guaranteed by international overwatch, none of those mainland representatives.

This is just another dictator having a whiny shitstorm threatening to take territory by force just because they want their historical empire.

Can you imagine any of the current geriatrics taking anything more than a 6th grader’s punch?

There’s some real vitriol packed up in this comment. Try not to take it out on the cashiers :)

You’re so quick to label everyone a this and that while claiming you also know what they support and why that makes sense and what wouldn’t.

All that to say you are so full of shit that it is spilling out of your mouth. Accusing people of supporting genocide when you have no fucking clue who they are, what they do, who they know, where they are, ANYTHING, is a horrible way to generate discussion. But it works great to get engagement, so I guess you won.

Oh hey, I just spotted another one!

Listen to yourself. You’re demonizing an entire group of people and making very broad assumptions based on your own fear, not reality.

You think Biden wouldn’t be treated with the same scrutiny? Based on what? He’s already changing his views and tactics on Gaza now, just today Biden called for a cease fire. Because that’s what politicians do, they listen to their people. In your fantasy where Biden suddenly does the opposite and nukes Gaza, I would be among the first to protest for his immediate arrest and removal from office.

You’re so hellbent on showing how divisive the country is, that you’re actually helping grow that divide. Let’s both learn from this.

No but we can estimate the total age before cosmic inflation renders the universe cold and so far spread out so as to be considered “dead”

That timeline is around 10^27 years, of which we only right now have been around for about 10^9. So we are VERY young compared to the max age. On the cosmological timescale, we are still “being born”

The real clutch is how low that cooldown timer is. By the end of the match, the whole map should be littered with expendable rocket tubes!

I’ll think of you next time I masturbate <3

What exactly are you saying here now? You’re being intentionally vague

Nobody, at least seriously, is threatening YOU to vote a specific way. The threat comes from one candidate specifically, of which our glorious 2 party system has confirmed will ONLY be one of those two. And he isn’t threatening YOU, but rather our entire way of life. So, go ahead and vote however you want. Just know the repercussions on the grand scale, and maybe be a little humble.

What haven’t they done forever?

This is what happens right before the major money holders abandon ship. There’s no way they don’t know this is business-suicide. I bet they got a big payday from some companies that paid Glassdoor to shoot itself in the face!

YouTube did it when Google bought them and changed everyone’s unique username to their Google account (real) name

I think that’s what makes Tolkien such a talented writer. Sure, he just wanted a nice character reference, but he managed to make it fit in such a way that truly did expand the horizons of Mordor to near infinity.

Wait a second… That’s MY ip!
