While youre right, the MAGA core is a small portion of US voters. Even if it was half the Republican voters, thats about 15% of total US voters. They are a minority that pretends to make up 90% of the population. Get the turnout up and convince those brainwashed by Fox news and you got yourself a 70-30 win.

Because staging a coup based on lies is the same as protesting against a fascist regime based on lies? Youre a real smart one arent you?

Sounds about right

His logic is: I walk into a store and buy a hat for 10$ and sell them a shoe for 7$. This means the store ripped me off by 3$. To counter this, I will add a tarriff of (3/10)/2 = 15% to all business I do with this store so they dont dare sell me anything in the future.

Why would it be a waste? Theyre getting eaten. Plastic is way worse overall.

I do most of the time but I like snacking on them while cooking

2. No Blockbuster in Germany, and noone uses checks here.

Edited from Europe to Germany as some pointed out that there is Blockbuster and checks in other countries

Have you tried them sliced and salted? I love the crunch combined with the subtle sting. Only problem is your whole body stinks for the day^^

Thanks for explaining. Sounds like the US had a chance to break out of the two-party dictatorship but gave it away for a short term chance at a single term. This is really sad, but Im also convinced the people in power wouldnt simply let it happen. The system has made them so insanely rich and influential that probably nothing short of a violent revolution could break it.

Im not that deep into US polotics but my impression is the dems cant implement left policies, because the population is so indoctrinated with "communism is pure evil" that they would rather vote for a criminal fascist. They cant just implement policies that 95% of their voters disagree with. Theyre about as left as the farthest right democratic party in Germany, excluding the AfD of course, which was proven anti-democratic and might get banned soon. But this represents the population. Suppressed education plays a big part in my opinion. To me it seems that most of the dems are content with either party being in charge, the things they argue about like DEI and migration are huge distractions from the massive lobby deals both parties agree upon. Its a two-party dictatorship pretending to fight each other while suppressing anyone but the richest.

Makes sense

Of course, not everyone can get to DC, but there are already millions there. Thanks for doing your part.

She is if she thinks raw onions are anything but delicious

2000?

Wrong

Lol glad I followed the comment chain till the end. I also read it as meaning "regardless of genetics". Classic blind dispute.

Asleep at the wheel is a nice way to put it while they are wearing eyeshades and earplugs.

Well yeah you should. Im honestly shocked that most people are okay with this and arent protesting. If Germany would be in the midst of a fascist takeover again, Id spend half my day on the streets shouting. Im not evem sure if its not already too late, Trump has eliminated almost all resistance except for something the order of a revolution.

As a non-american, I dont understand what thatyou mean. Could you elaborate shortly? And is your comment controversial because people are saying its not true or because they think your critique is misplaced?

Thanks
