Honestly, culture is only part of the reason.

The majority of people having enough and making enough to live on, and having actually safety nets and access to affordable Healthcare means you don't need to commit crimes to survive. As always it's not perfect and things can always change, but having less wealth inequality really does wonders for a society

but what else would you call a company that promotes fascists and strictly polices leftists

That last part is relevant, because thats not what YouTube does and what makes it a conspiracy

This is odd to say when the YouTube algorithm has been proven to push right wing propaganda.

This is not a conspiracy. The conspiracy is saying YouTube does this because they are right wing company.

His point is that a lot of people are really stupid and financially irresponsible and it doesn't matter if you give them the wealth in stocks or assets or cash it's going to be used up fast. Meanwhile those who are smart with their money will use it to accumulate more and in a few years you'll be back at square one.

Are you saying the solution for this is to continually redistribute wealth? Do you understand what you are saying?

You "blame" the Republicans so much you never once commented about their involvement in Israel until now, when you are called out on it.

Someone has to be ambassador to China.

It's probably going to be someone most on the left so not want.

So you choose the one that you can stomach while you have a vote.

Just to note, but even Republicans stonewalled every confirmation.

Multiple horror stories is the weakest data set you can come up with.

How many tourists do you think come through the US in a single day? What percentage does "multiple" cases make up?

Yes, it is how its always worked that if you go through immigration and you get flagged for something suspicious you get detained for further questioning. Did you expect the immigration officer to let you through if you failed the initial set of questions like "where will you be staying for the duration of your trip? "

Let me throw this back at you for a sec. How exactly do you are the Trump administration organizing this? Did they suddenly hire a bunch of new immigration officers? Among the hiring and spending freeze and stupid Doge stuff, where did these new officers come from? Do the officers now have some detained quota they need to meet each day? Are all TSA secretly MAGA waiting for the chance to deny tourists?

Sometimes the simplest explanation is right in front of you. The girls were too truthful on their form and that for them flagged and detained. You need to account for where you will be while in the US ( or most countries honestly). Otherwise it is assumed you might do something like try to work and stay long term beyond your visa. When their answers didn't add up they got sent home.

If you don't believe this go ahead and try and travel to any country and tell them you don't have a place to stay yet, don't know when you will leave exactly, but you'll just wing it. See if that flies.

This really doesn't seem like something the administration has a hand in.

When you travel internationally and land the first thing that happens is you fill out a slip go through immigration. The slip asks how long you are staying and where your are staying among other things.

Not accounting for your accommodations for the full duration of your trip will get you flagged for more questions. If the immigration officer things you are going to work during your stay they will deny you because it's illegal on a tourist visa.

What the girls should have done was just say they were staying at the hotel for the whole time (although 5 weeks at a hotel is probably also a red flag)

Why is this a shit post? This is like straight out of Silicon Valley.

I respect that name

We are not accounting for the percentage of people who read it but are still cool with forfeiting their soul.

And let's be real, it's ok to be emotional and want attention. That's human.

But I'm sure this can be done, and is probably easier to accomplish by not being a nazi, which is the real issue here.
