If most of Americans really wanted this, most Americans would be out on the streets, protesting 24/7, letting the economy grind to a halt. Y'all "want" this the same way I want homemade lasagna for dinner today, I won't say no to it, but I won't bother making it myself.

If you hear a woman being brutally murdered in the woods, it's likely just a horny fox. FYI.

Well, the problem is that the side who likes him the most is also the one who owns most of the guns and has the most penchant for violence.

Okay, but...no? First of all, "megafauna" is ice age fauna is open steppe fauna. A fucking mammoth doesn't *fit* between massive trees! Also, yes, the ocean is a huge and important ecosystem, but a lot of it is "abyssal plains", basically thousands of sqkm of grey flatness. It's not some mysterious "dark forest" we have no idea about, we know what most of it looks like because most of it looks the same.

#4 Maybe don't drive, then? Next time it might be a small child instead of a pot hole...

Yea, but us Europeans had no hand in it, yet we still have to deal with the bullshit.

The "librarian" working in your town's public library is doing a very different job than the "librarian" working at a university's central library. The former are volunteers, at least where I live. The latter definitely are academic professionals.

Yea, I think this...survey gets an undue amount of flak. It doesn't say "beat" her. It says "score a point against her". If you can play tennis, you can probably score at least once against a pro.

I was gonna say. If you're wondering why nobody has thought of this clever trick, it's because it's called "perfidy" and it's a war crime (Geneva convention Article 37).

Okay, I like Bernie Sanders. But y'all need to stop glorifying politicians. They're civil servants who are elected to do a job. If you think Sanders is the "nicest person in the world", you really need to expand your horizon a bit.

As someone who has played a lot of ETS2, which is what this is, he definitely has any kind of physics turned off or some modded vehicle.

You really think there will be consequences? BEST case scenario is a Democrat presidency and a lot of talk about how it is "time for healing and forgiveness" or some such rubbish.

I don't know the fully story and context, but in a vacuum, it feels weird to make fun of an older dude for just...having a good time. Let people have fun.

"Live action remakes" are like AI, n+1 military FPS, or gatcha games. Everyone on the internet seems to hate them, yet they continue to make billions.

#13 So the countries he has been insulting and berating, even threatening with invasion, almost every day of his presidency until now?

I'm too lazy to look it up, but I'm relatively sure it mentions geographical places outside this area. It would be surprising if it didn't. The entire Mediterranean was one cultural region at the time, and there was regular contact with lands all the way to the Indus river, Oman, and even Ireland.

I'm worried that Europe is also too invested in Middle Eastern oil to refuse. Global warming is the main reason why we should stop relying on fossil fuels, but this exact scenario is the second most important reason. If your entire economy relies on a steady flow of cheap fuel, you severely limit your strategic flexibility.

I don't think it has been that low in my lifetime in Switzerland.

Can't be accused of "insider trading" when you're using your insider knowledge to make money off of *bets* instead of stocks.

A lot of those sick people are in power in democracies. Yes, democracies at varying degrees of healthiness and functionality, but democracies nonetheless. So the general population is, at least partially, implying they are fine with rich pedophiles being in power. I'm not saying it would be easy to get them out of power, but that still means people would rather be ruled by pedophiles than put any effort into changing the situation.

I'm getting tired of the "he was put in place by foreign power" narrative. About two thirds of you Americans either voted for him or not against him *after he already had one presidency*. You knew what was coming, you made an informed decision. Russia or Iran or China didn't force him on you, you picked him, knowingly and willingly.

#32 I agree that news media shape public opinion through deliberate omission. But this piece in particular *is* very important news!
