Okay buddy. Stockholm syndrome isn’t a bragging point

Recent as in the past couple decades when we started using the term “border czar”?

Pretty sure “drug czar” has been around long before my time.

Edit: Google says border czar was popularized under Clinton, drug czar was first used by Nixon and popularized under Reagan

^case in point

technukully, it isn’t called SoTU when it’s the first one of the term

Sometimes you can be so sure about the poster’s age

There have been over a million conscripts in Ukraine afaik. They haven’t even hit 50k deaths TOTAL (including civilians might make it just above that).

Most? Stop with the disinformation. It would be one thing if the number was close but it isn’t.

Unexpected a few months ago, but not after recent events. When your leader calls for your movement to end, it can be hard to keep going

Mostly die? Maybe a quarter of Ukranian troops have become casualties. Deaths are maybe 1/4th of the casualties

We’re being invaded by a country that’s much more well-resourced than us? Then yes.

But I dont believe we are…

Social expectations

Why does it seem like so many non-Americans stereotype Americans?

Which episode was this?

Idk, gas leak seems more plausible (even if it dissipated before tests happened). Maybe the wire felt lightheaded, went for pills, but didn’t have time.

Why not the $20? Isn’t that the one where conservative blocked Harriet Tubman? Seems like a perfect place for Trump’s face!!!

55% of voters support birthright citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants, with 63% believing it is a requirement in the U.S. constitution, breaking with Trump on the issue.

Ok, so 37% are denying reality

You could try googling “what is someone with no empathy or political understanding called”

Why so anti-Bluetooth?

Yes and that’s why visualizing data on issues that are so prone to noise is silly

Convenience is nationalism

Damn. Why don’t more Americans buy Huawei phones that aren’t available in any stores? Must be nationalist!
