Unfortunately, I can't read the language it was written in and I can only go with the people we knew and met who could.

No, they mean deathtrap Americans. I think they're like Irish Americans or African Americans but I'm not too sure where deathtrap is.

I knew a guy who had "bad to the bone" written on his neck in Chinese. The problem is, the phrase doesn't translate at all.

So, his tattoo read as "my bones are bad"

Tbf, he was a clown and had something like that coming.

Imo, the most egregious would be the tories forcing the UK to sell its controlling share in BP, the very second we discovered ALL the oil in the North Sea for a fraction of its cost.

If Putin, trump, Johnson, Blair or Starmer had done it, they would know exactly what they were looking at: corruption.

Theres nothing we can do within our legal framework. If we had any justice in this country, they'd be doing some very hard time.

Edit: although the figures here are a great example of why you should ignore most large companies profit figures. They fiddle them, making them next to useless. If you don't have access to their cash flow, dividends payouts cuts through the BS just as well.

Oh, so just like the bible then.

Better to look at the three most Christian counties in Europe. Well, at least, the most Christian in the 1920s and 30s

Spain

Italy

Germany

They also had something else in common.

I don't think we can look at patterns of counties that america has taken every chance to fuck over they can, nor a people who wanted socialism but had fascism forced on them. For me, a better yardstick is the counties that chose fascism, embraced it and ran with it.

Its a massively growing problem in many European countries. The UK is having the same issues but some of the strictest laws on drugs in Europe.

At least you get some tax money back from it, unlike us.

Jokes on you, I was testing my null hypothesis

I upvoted because you're probably right but I hate both you and myself for it.

...consisting of guys born to a fantastic level of wealth who all have to pretend inequality doesn't exist in any capacity what so ever in order to make any of their theories work.

A little but what most people don't seem to be aware of is that most war spending far outstrips what was spent on lockdown etc. Yet, for some reason, this lesser amount is meant to be the cause of all economic misfortune right now.

Countries can cope with things like that well enough. The problem is, we're no longer taxing the rich to pay for things, the way we always used to, anymore and most counties have been asset stripped by those very same people they used to tax properly.

Yeah, its bizarre. Its almost as if the sections of electorate that complained about age never really cared about i the first place.

If you look at the history of fascism, you'll find the "christo" part to be surplus to requirements.

Its only when they're non-christian that we need to distinguish them.

Of course they dont say stuff like that.

Great thinkers have been telling us that free will is an illusion for decades.

I mean, that would be ridiculous......

Its me, they're talking about me aren't they?

Sorry, what i meant to say was, I think there's always at least two ways to go about things and, whatever side you fall on, you just have to follow your truth because, ultimately, you have to be true to yourself. I think thats all you can do really because, if you're not being true to yourself, then you're living a lie.

So, you've just got to do what you've got to do because, at the end of the day, it is what it is and that's not going to change anytime soon.

I've heard some people talking about not being able to sustain meaningful relationships. Well, I don't know much about that. But what I do know is that I enjoy the freedom of doing things my way and to just be me. If being against me not being me is wrong, then I don't think I want to want to be right.

Are you happy now? Is that what you wanted of is it still "too big" for you, John?

Until then, you know, you just have to be true to yourself because, if you're not being true to yourself, you'll be living a lie.

In the end you've just got to remember that it is what is and you've got to what you've got to do. You gotta do your thing you, know?

So just be you but a you that's true to yourself while going with the flow and bossing it your way, all the way.

Most of all, be lucky.

"No your honour, I liberated it"

I think its a very specific kind of person myself. Noy necessarily stupid, although many of them are.

To me, the person they target the best is both A) people who are easy to wind up and B) the kind who'll, despite even knowing they know nothing about a given subject, will, if they hear something they just don't like, will declare it to be bullshit and will never, ever back down from that regardless.

Okay and what if I, believe it or not, actually already knew that they dont pay customers to scan things and wasn't on Walmart side?

Instead, try saying "well, then they don't pay you enough to scan everything now do they?"
