@julius24993 @CityBureaucrat No you’re being retarded on purpose. Whatever monetary policy America implements the world has to work around they can’t choose their own fate
English
@Voughtlynch @CityBureaucrat So in return for defending the world... we can have inflationary monetary policy?
English
I think I'm probably alone but I don't care about a high standard of living based on a dollar - petro or otherwise - that, for some inexplicable reason, requires endless population turnover in the U.S.
English
@julius24993 @CityBureaucrat In return you can print your own money and everyone else has to work around you
English
@CityBureaucrat I have never understood international monetary politics. So... we pay for the defense of our allies, maintain global trade or whatever...and in return we get... massive debt? And this is supposed to be good? What do I need to read to understand this?

@alethonyms @FCneoTokyo @NickZararis You’re correct. I just don’t see them run on that principle anymore. If I ever see a dem running it’s usually proudly talking about increasing Medicare or Medicaid which isn’t applicable for a large portion of the country
English
@Voughtlynch @FCneoTokyo @NickZararis Joe Biden literally did by pushing for a public option, and expanded ACA subsidies, reformed drug prices, plus record ACA enrollment. Is that not advocating (and actually taking action) for non medicare/medicaid recipients?

@alethonyms @FCneoTokyo @NickZararis The dems you can actually vote for have not advocated for healthcare for non medicare/medicaid in nearly a decade
English
@FCneoTokyo @NickZararis Dems: “Hey, we want to expand healthcare accessibility, ensure crucial social services and programs are protected and vitalized-“
White voters: “I DONT CARE I HATE WOKENESS!!!!”
Dems: “But-“
White voters: “NO MORE WOKENESS!!!!!”

@coaiecrete Why import Muslims in the continent if being religious is bad?

except for the patriotic one, these are all great questions that americans should be asking themselves

@InsaneCope Same energy

There are plenty of reasons to dislike suburbs, but I get the feeling these people just expect you to associate white UMC “sameness” with a disgust response — which they’d be horrified to see applied to a place like Cairo

DFW realtors and investors will look you in the eye and tell you this is a great neighborhood for you to raise your kids and live in a community. These people are sick

@ashleyschendel @vasalex93 If those services got cut to those homes the owners would dump them. The taxes cause it be valuable
English
@vasalex93 Why would they need to be doubled for extra homes? Especially, if you’re not using any of the services much.
English
A paid off house should actually feel paid off. When the average property tax bill is $4,427 and keeps climbing even if you didn’t sell, refinance, or magically get richer, it’s not hard to see why people feel like they never fully own the place they worked for.
English
@RealmBanner @ThomasTheLib I’m not saying that. I just won’t pretend that US intervention served only the one purpose, a purpose we didn’t massively benefit from and use to accelerate economic interests.
English
Liberating Kuwait was good, actually.

In 1991, Bernie Sanders delivered a speech to an empty U.S congress, advising against military intervention in the Gulf War.

Le « vous ne seriez rien sans nous » de cette vidéo me flingue. C’est directement inspiré des luttes des noirs américains, qui ont effectivement contribué à construire les Etat-Unis modernes, alors que là on parle de réfugiés syriens qui sont arrivés il y a 11 ans.
Zineb Riboua@zriboua
A Syrian artist living in Berlin posted a video now trending across Germany. Germany welcomed Syrian refugees during and after the civil war and have no colonial past in Syria to atone for. What do they get in return? Resentment, a Third-Worldist rant basically about Western colonizers as eternal oppressors. The contrast with Syria itself is what makes this interesting. Syrians inside Syria today want the West. They want a peaceful Damascus, a functioning banking system, trade, integration into the global economy. The loudest anticolonial voices and movements now sit in Western capitals advocating for things their own people aren’t aligned with.

@Midknight74012 @PortoValhe Are you married or still holding out for the Trad Virgin Japanese Catholic convert who loves anime?
English
@PortoValhe Okay, since you're an expert on anime and manga, does this that air and manga must be and always will be rooted in Shintoism?
Do you have a solution to the suicide rates in the US and Japan?
Looked it up and yes, US has a higher rate, but not by much. 15.3 JP v 16.1 US per 100k

Japan becoming Christian would be like Britain becoming Muslim.
Only an idiot would think the culture would remain the same.

If you want Japan to become Catholic you don’t want Japan to remain Japanese.

@neddersassencel @hope_pead No we associate Germans with Nazis, cars, being obsessed with poop, and autism
English
@hope_pead God I hate this slop about big-breasted German girls in dirndls.
It's the only thing American rightoids associate with Germany apart from nazism.
Pure gooner slop.
English
there should be a slur for folk like this

I hate this genre of man.

@nienna121 It’s actually because Protestants see praying to saints to pray on your behalf as blasphemy and weakens your connection to God.
English
The idea that Protestants object to Catholicism because of premarital sex is laughable. The data shows that Protestants oppose premarital sex far more than Catholics do.
meta thomist 🇻🇦@metathomist
You’d be surprised how many Protestant objections to Catholicism center on sex. Contraception. Celibacy. Mary’s virginity. Divorce. Remarriage. Masturbation. IVF. Premarital sex.

@bitcoin__intern @PeterWrangel @marshalldukat No it’s white people from New Jersey, New York, and Ohio

This isn't a good thing, I hope people realize this.
