Isn't the entire midwest descended from fucking krauts anyway? Seems like every time I look at a map of ancestry in the states something like 80% of states have German as the most common ancestry, with the midwest in particular being almost entirely germanized. The US could have probably still had a decent space program, it would just be 10 years behind the soviets, since they would have to teach own germans how to read and write prior to teaching to them math.

Obama being sandwiched between Bush II and Trump is really the most graded-on-a-curve you can ever fucking get. He did shit-fuck for people and every single democrat-voter will forever hold him as the second coming of jesus.

Did the Sauds suddenly grow a small spine, or is this just about them not getting their flammable infrastructure struck by the Based Brigade?

Seems like the commanders are grifting to the same tune as the Afghan National Army. Surely even they must understand that you can only keep that going until you actually need to use your army against an enemy, or maybe they just plan on fucking off before shit hits the fan.

I mean, don't capitalist also need workers to survive, given that they (capital owners) don't make anything? Though I do agree that a decent portion of these layoffs seem to be more about disciplining the industry rather than any serious business proposals.

Weren't a lot of tech firms also famous for just taking any available talent that was for hire, even if they had no need for their labour at the current moment, just so those talented workers wouldn't go to their competitors and do something useful?

Not even the whole "stupid commies have more houses than people" more like half-remembering the stories about the Chinese ghost towns that were popular prior to the neighbourhoods in Chongqing being completed and people actually moving in.

Jesus fuck, just write "the jews" and save yourself the embarassment of typing dumb shit like "old money deep state bloodlines". Nobody who writes like this is going to walk around talking about the Bush dynasty as CIA-royalty, or the Harrimans in defense industries/state department, or the Dulles family somehow ending up with both the Secretary of State and Chief of the CIA.

Well, you see, when you do neoliberalism hard enough, and rely ENTIRELY on a piece of paper that says "NATO member" as your only means of defence, you end up with incredibly shitty weapons. Like, Denmark did neoliberalism so hard in the 00s that we shut down the only bullet factory in the entire country. And that was WHILE we were invading Afghanistan, Iraq and keeping "peacekeepers" in Cyprus and Kosovo.

Had to listen to several of my coworkers discuss China's "empty cities with houses for millions" and tried my hardest not to have a stroke. I desperately wanted them to understand how anything relating to city planning works, but only 1 of them actually pays any attention to the things I say and the other 2 think I'm too young and naive to really understand the world, which is annoying to hear from some of the most privelledged people at my place of employment.

Is his head shaped like a traffic cone or does he just not know how to wear that specific type of hat?

Isn't that just any professional sport before 1990? I remember watching a youtube doc about sports nutrition, and a former player from the 80's was telling that his "warm up" meal before a football game was 2 hotdogs and a cherry coke.

Danish royals been better than the British is a very low bar, given that they manage to clear it by just not trying to fuck children. In Denmark, we leave the childfucking to the professionals, such as our Foreign Minister during the previous government, or that one guy from the Moderates who groomed a 15-year old into being his "girlfriend".
