How's it hanging, boys? Is the forum still on the Trump train? Do people still think Russia didn't interfere on Trump's behalf, even after he fired Michael Flynn, Congress found Jeff Sessions lying under oath, and more recently firing the head of the FBI investigating him, etc?
Man, on one hand, I like being right, on the other hand, this is actually our president? Feels bad.
tl;dr slavery was completely intertwined with southern interests and it was so important to them that they put it in their secession declarations when they laid out the reasons they left the union.
Wasn't Rhyaldrin the one accusing liberals of being all about feelings in the first place? Now that he does the exact thing he accuses others of, you jump to defend him like a white knight saving a princess? Lol.
You're holding all muslims accountable for what a tiny tiny percentage of them do. We see a priest molest children, we don't automatically think all priests molest children. We see a baptist church member holding up a sign that says "God hates fags" and we don't think *all* baptists are homophobic assholes. We've had millions of Muslims around living in the US for de
Christianity has spent 400 years as the dominant religion in the world, and Christians (in the USA in particular) get *mad* butthurt whenever another religion tries to enroach on their territory.
Example: Republicans (the dominant party of the religious right) call for "religious freedom" and "small government" whenever it suits them, then go on to exercise a ban on Muslims
unless the other side is brown, in which case I guess the you want the government to step in and tell them what its acceptable to believe and what's acceptable not to believe, right?
QuoteIt's the 1% of the 1%'ers getting everything and using the rest of the world's poorest as slave-wage labor to produce the goods as cheaply as possible.
All capitalists would do this if possible, not just the globalists. This is literally the end goal of capitalism - maximize your profit, even if it directly harms other people in the process.

Because looking back I don't see any mention of that at all in my arguments. I'm not sure why you think it applies

Also, perfect competition is a theoretical masturbation tool for economics textbooks to teach basic market theory. No such market exists or will ever exist as long as the laws of physics are what they are now.
There will always be barriers to entry, always be
Even if they don't have talent or innovation or hard work, if they have enough money they can afford to hire employees who do have these traits. Plus, in a free market, a rich person can afford a LOT more mistakes before his company implodes that your average middle class citizen cannot. Lastly, of course, there's the exponential multipliers on wealth - the more money you have, the more
But after a certain point, incentives become meaningless. There's no qualitative difference between the lifestyle of somebody worth 50 million dollars and somebody worth 150 million dollars - they can both afford almost anything they want. Unless you're extremely, extremely poor at financial management, after a certain level of income its almost impossible to spend all your money anyway
The inherent nature of capitalism is that the rich have the easiest time getting richer - the more money you have, the easier it is to make more of it. A 10% return on 10 million dollars will always be better than an 10% return on 10 thousand. This is just inherent in any capitalist system, and the expansion of free trade and markets created by globalism will always inherently benefit the top 1%
And regearing is easier too since you aren't dependent on preps and equipment to kill the mobs you want to regear on.
Playing fire giant rager is mostly writing a few scripts/extended aliases and then watching movies for 30-50 hours while you max out all your skills. Even if you die or get PKed while the script is running, you don't really care that much, since as a rager you probabl
Its bullshit that the guy got hired just because he was gay, even if he was clearly incompetent and underqualified, and its bullshit that he got away with that sort of behavior.

That being said, I know the problem you and NbM are discussing. Let me share an experience I think is roughly analogous:
When I was in school, I was a shy, awkward kid. And I grew big, quickly.
So when the
Personally, I think the issue is that you can't differentiate properly between someone offering reasonable disagreement and someone thinking you're a moron. I was at first #1, now I'm #2. You are correct that this is a binary world view, but it's not Republican and Democrat.
There are many Republicans or otherwise right-leaning individuals who I respect and think are far m
But there are things you can change and things you cannot change.
You can't change all parents to be wealthy and educated, and you can't change all children to be intelligent and motivated, so you might as well focus on things you *can* change, like discrimination against sex and race. If you want to call this a "fake proletariat", I kind of agree - it addresses the symptom
Because it's become socially unacceptable to say "this guy is stupid/dumb/wrong/inferior because he's black", and very few people are willing to do so.
Instead, it's become this massive force of double standards. For example, the birther movement (of which Trump was a huge proponent of), suggested that Obama was born in Kenya, despite all evidence to the contrary and O
You claim to not be cheerleadering Trump, then you spend hours and days arguing with me about Russia intervening on his behalf, with me offering dozens of primary sources, quotes from intelligence agencies, reports from cybersecurity companies, and you dismissing them all, while offering exactly two sources of your own, one of which I thought was rather ridiculous.
Now it's basically an
