Not for nothing, but if you were to flip the white male vote he'd have also lost. Don't forget to thank the most important demographic, white dudes.
That was something that annoyed me during his speech. I know he would never say it, but it irked me how he bragged and talked about blacks and Latinos voting for him but no mention of white men, which I believe the hatred towards heavily contributed to people voting for him.
 
this is such a pathetic temper tantrum. the behavior of someone who knows their country, and by extension their conglomerate of nations, is weak even compared to just one country in the western hemisphere.
It's so cute that they assume we give a shit about their opinion.
Just because someone claims to represent the thoughts of a European on social media does not mean they do. Especially when it's posted by an account used by an American "legal organisation."
>"europoors"
>account called "politicsusa46"
Friendo, this is an American expat being a retard. He knows nothing.
It's not even that, the poster's bio confirms it's a Democracy Forward account. I suspect this list of their partners will tell everything people need to know about them.

i don't know what you're trying to imply, that there aren't europeans who feel this way? i've asked people from the uk, germany, poland, and france just now to check, and yeah. there are a surprising amount of people who absolutely do feel this way to them. they're all coping libtards, but still. not to mention we've also seen canada and mexico imply they want to buck america with their 'economic power'.
 
Classes should be livestreamed so that parents can check on what is going on in these schools at any time
how is livestreaming children supposed to lower the amount of pedos committing crimes?
I recall similar history from late 90s high school
school has been pozzed for decades, A People's History was the de facto APUSH text book for a long time now. in most areas of the country the schools are absurdly leftist leaning, a conservative teaching of the US hasn't happened ever if my relatives recollections are to be believed.
battled communism and won
as long as you don't count Latin America and Asia and Africa!
Elon has been a subservient 'tist.
that plus not even being eligble makes it a match made in heaven, as a tist he probably doesn't even realize he could have the power to fuck with trump or usurp the government. reading between the lines is something tists like Elon or James Damore have a problem with, the idea that he wouldn't do what trump told him never entered his mind. "he hired me for a service therefore i should do it" its a huge reason fast food, retail, and other lower strata jobs love the retarded, they don't have the brainpower to understand they should fuck around like an asshole.
Democratic primaries aren't real and they haven't been for at least since 1968.
1976 and 1992 were genuine upsets.
Rate me optimistic we'll actually see a non-pozzed Disney movie this term.
it takes a solid 3 years for a movie to go from being greenlit to hitting theaters. meaning even if someone in hollywood decided to make a movie, it would only be released in 2028, like this captain america film only got greenlit after the tv show didn't make enough profit 5 years ago.
 
I’m convinced that internal combustion engines require too much actual concern during manufacturing, that the individual parts all need to be within tolerance for the end product to function. Chinese people are not capable of giving a fuck about something that consistently
Are integrated circuits not a counterexample?

A printer prints them. Generally, a western printer.

That’s different from say, casting a mold for an engine block, which needs to be done correctly for even cooling to minimize stresses within the metal which will cause deformation, then relocating the work piece multiple times so all machining operations fall within tolerance, MEASURING that they are on complex geometry, and fitting it to pistons on rods that mate with a crank shaft
 
Yes, it takes shitloads of electricity to make aluminum. The cost of the electricity can be 10 times more than the cost of the ore, so aluminum is usually produced where electricity is inexpensive.

Iceland gets entire cargo ships full of bauxite because of this. It's cheaper to ship entire mines worth of ore there to take advantage of dirty cheap (and clean which certainly looks good on the quarterly reports) geothermal electricity.


Euros pretending not to care about the USA while obsessing over it like a clingy BPD ex.

As an aside, did anyone notice how China never in history tried to get the rest of the world to buy any gas powered cars?

They used to, but all those people are in Taiwan now because Mao's Leaps and Culture revolutions decimated them. If you were actually trying to do a good job and keep tight standards you were guaranteed to end up dead.
 
God, you know how depressing it is to see the sad state of these fast food places that used to look like this back in the day to what they look like now?

Every fast food place I walk into now looks "fancy" and "classy" as if they were trying to be some legit restaurant to go to instead of the goyslop factory they currently are. They give you numbers to take to your table and force you to use those kiosks so the worker behind the counter has LESS to do.... oh wait, no they don't because now they're waiters that bring you your shit to the table instead of you taking it yourself. There's barely any kid's place to play in and if there is, they are either smaller than what they used to be, or blocked off from people going in because that particular building doesn't want to bother using it or do maintenance on it anymore.

Hell, there are Burger Kings near me that used to have the kid's play area outside, and now everything is gone and the front of these places just look dead and empty because everything including the fence has been taken down.
 
"Then what?"

The only thing the US has to do is call Putin up to make some spicy "deals" about the current European situation, threaten to disband/leave NATO, and perhaps most importantly completely cut off the oil spigot. Sure they could get it from Russia, but what's that Hans? "You want to keep sending equipment to Ukraine? No more US to protect you? No can do. By the way, can we get the Baltics back while we're at it?"

Go ahead Euros. Go serve a new massa. Push US interests to start aligning more with Russia's and see how well that works out for you.

It's sterile, lacking whimsy, and lacking color and aesthetic. There was a conversation in here about how this is a tactic for living spaces or office buildings to demoralize people, but I'm gonna lean into the opinion that for fast food places it's to stay hip and trendy. Which is bullshit. You should want to stand out from your competition so you have an actual brand and appeal to customers. Akin to a peacock. A peacock for delicious goyslop. Mmm. Goyslop.
