They had a rocky start but at one point controlled all of Hispaniola.

If by control you mean invaded, conquered the Spanish side, and treated the locals there so badly that if you could convert hate into power the Dominicans would Hate the Haitian side of the island to ash. Then yes, they controlled Hispaniola.

As some who values loyalty a great deal, I can say it's shameful to watch a politician betray another member of their party for their own gain.

DeWine literally only cares about DeWine. And his family, but nepotism and all that, his son is on the state Supreme Court. The FBI probably wouldn't have to plant CP on the creepy fuck's computer.

I like how a video of Orange Man visiting a convenience store brought out the junk good autism. This is what I love about KF.

On that subject we have a local soda maker that supplies the local movie theater. Good stuff in that it has no trace of fake shit in it.

He planned to visit but that apparently won't happen now. The Republican Governor of Ohio said that such an appearance from Trump would "strain" relations with the local community and he also slammed the former president for what he called "hurtful" rhetoric. This is the same man who also defended the Haitian immigrants and said that they help the economy.

I'm sure they do help "the economy," as defined by "his local businessman friends who are using them as a literal imported slave caste."

The only fun thing is the entire tech industry is working 24x7 to rise AI to the point that the Haitians et all will be replaced by robots. The problem is, it won't stop with them.

I'm not racist, but it really makes you think, how niggers come up with shit like voodoo and Europeans (afaik) come up with something so sophisticated like Christianity.

Is it just luck that white people evolved faster, first? Was it just happenstance? Was it because of geographical advantages? It could be. Or it could not be.

nowdays the 'arab world' doesn't mean much, they're just religious fanatics with a bunch of disconnected banana republics barely teetering on the edge of the second world, but muslims invented math so hard that basically every civilization uses the arabic numeral system. we don't use the native number script to this language unless we're memeing about antiquity. one of the main contributing factors to europe getting out of the dark ages and into the renaissance was the exchange of knowledge with the arabs.

I do find the demonization of the rural whites to be an interesting phenomenon. In the US they were basically the backbone of the country for centuries. They were the people who typically served in the military, grew the food, and the surplus population would go to the cities to work.

It’s odder still because villages and towns in the countryside are dying in the West. The US has West Virginia as a whole where the main industry has been put under pressure by Environmentalists and drug addiction (that’s honestly encouraged by the Gov’t), but it’s a larger issue.
England and Japan have these old villages that are dying out due to the young people moving away or being bought out by the old pensioners who need to be pushed down stairs.

Orange Man is honest about his vices. The Diet Coke tweet is the funniest clean comedy ever.

Middle of the country, too. You just gotta go someplace that has decent sodas for sale. You can get variety sixers of like, Moxie, Frostie, Dad's, all sorts of good shit at hardware stores here. Homemade soda is the tits, but if you gotta go store bought and don't get any of the good ones, spring for shit like Italian sodas. They'll make you feel fancy.

Funny enough, they stole the Arabic numerals from India.

The Arabic numeral system originated in India between the 1st and 4th centuries. The system was adopted by Arabic mathematicians in the 9th century and introduced to Europe in the 12th century by Middle Eastern mathematicians. The system is commonly known as "Arabic numerals" even though it was first developed in India.

I occasionally see shit at Total Wine/Bevmo but it never has any regional stuff, same with Spotted Cow and shit.

Eventually I'll leave this shithole and go east lol

Sadly, I think a lot of MAGA types learned the hard way about this in 2020. Before that I noticed there was a lot of belief that Trump could convince minority groups that he's not racist and that he wants what's best for all legal americans. Unfortunately, I think reality finally hit MAGA once hispanics and blacks voted mostly for Biden in 2020. Not only that though but many white americans pointed out how both parties pander to blacks, hispanics, asians, etc whereas white americans get no shout out. (except for Trump's recent comments.) Its like why bother voting for either party if they just pretend we dont exist?

Because we live in a two party system and there is always objectively someone who lines up with your interests more. Even when deciding between two piles of shit, one is going to fuck you up less.

The irony is, IIRC, before women and blacks, there were labor and class issues. Working class urban and rural whites were the first group the left latched onto, and the first group the left threw away. Now rural whites are the designated pariah class for sticking to their dying towns, away from the diverse, walkable cities, among other things.
