One tiny correction: Lo siento, no hablo mucho español = I'm sorry, I don't speak much spanish. Lo siento, no habló mucho español = I am sorry, he didn't speak much spanish

She will never engage with any other this.

Nah, you couldn't even be bothered to vote against fascism.

In that case, the prosecutor was approached by the victims families. They did not want to the death penalty, because it would have meant having a trial until at least 2028.

A trade deficit is never exploitation. Lets pretend it is!

All of the stats Trump put up weren't tariffs, they were a percentage of much less they would have to import in Goods from a certain country to make for the trade deficit with said country in Goods.

Not a single stat on that sheet looked at the trade in services. America always had a service trade surplus.

If we combine the two, a lot of countries that seem to """"exploit""" the US are suddenly exploited by the US.

But lets go even further: The countries receiving the highest tariffs are Vietnam and Lesotho, becuase the US has the highest deficit in Goods with these countries. Because both countries are too fucking poor to buy american products. A worker in Lesotho, providing diamonds for the US market, would have to invest about 20 years of wagest to buy the cheapest american import car. How the fuck should these countries reduce their deficit?

Okay, but still, we assume that a deficit is somehow exploitation. Trump has said that the tariffs are going to do two things, namely bringing back American Industry and forcing trade partner to drop "barriers and tariffs" (i.e. safety regulations).

For a tariff to do the former, it has to stay until the relevant factories have been built in America and have also paid themselves off. For a tariff to the latter, the possibility of it being removed once the partner comploes has to be on the table. A tariff can't do both.

But hey, don't believe me. Read the paper the White House cited in their Announcement of the Tariffs.

Atleast you're somewhat funny :)

Easy, we take all those stupid science grants and shove them up the farmers' asses

God i read that as a german trying to spell "free the wing"

I forgot humans and cats have the same level of agency to you.

They were on a training mission in Lithuania, to simulate fighting conditions in a country like Lithuania. Wtf are you even on about?

How the fuck is that training to bomb brown people?

They don't favor russia. They favor racial purity. A large part of the east wants an ethnostate without any "filthy outsiders or queers".

If a third didnt vote, then 2/3s haven't got a clue.

(Felons and other suppressed groups are exempt from this)

Yes, the poor brown people of... Lithuania?

Sure. Its not like Lithuania asked for NATO Troops because they really dont want to go back to being an Oblast, it must be an imperialist ploy.

Nah, ai slop should stay in the facebook boomer corner and die.

"Noooo, dont protest the oil wells in Bolivia, think about all the Americans who will lose their jobs q.q"

Or a Fußpils :)

No, every person American employs outside of the US is a bad, counterrevolutionary, child eating spy. Now face the wall comrade, we found out you spoke english that one.

Its not extreme enough. Tesla needs to fall.

I know about american circumstances, thats why i added that part in parentheses.

In the european countryside, car dependency is definitely on the same level as in America.

On the topic of prices: the first car my brother and i shared was a 2008 ford fusion. We bought in 2019 for 1.5k.

Either company cars, leased cars or someone has the spare 30k for a car.

And of course people take out loans for cars too, but thats less common. And not really necessary in the cities.
