Im all for good natured jokes but dont get the shit twisted, your talking ALOT of shit about the people who sent THOUSANDS so we might have a nation

WE are the ungrateful ones to forget that
France then later would go on to:
  • (Along with Britain) aid the confederacy during the civil war in the hopes to destabilize the US
  • Get bailed out by us in WWI
  • Get bailed out by us in WWII
  • Drag us into Vietnam
  • Throughout the cold war colaberated with the USSR
I think it's safe to say we've done more than enough for them in spite of their dead weight and back stabbing.
 
It's been bonkers. Went from one TV every 30 years to one every 3 years.
In my opinion, part of problem is digital standards get revised every few years, so there's more incentive to upgrade than before. Contrast this with the original NTSC standard from 1941, which was only changed once in its 60+ year lifetime to add color in 1953. There was little to be gained from upgrading aside from remote control and video inputs--which were pretty much standard by the mid-90s anyway.
 
"I fight for Sudan in all my capacity"
"It's hard for Sudanese to live here"
"There's zero reason to assimilate"
Imagine coming to America (the stereotyped 'gun loving' country) and complaining that the people here grew up without hearing gunshots every day. Lady, that's the goal. You should be thanking the people for being so peaceful, not complaining because you "can't relate to them" or they don't understand you or something.

Also, the complete idiocy to leave a country because it was violent (in her words), complain that America is peaceful, then tell people coming from violent countries to not adapt to American values. People who talk like this really do need to be sent back if they encourage not assimilating. It's like telling Americans moving into Japan to never learn Japanese and litter outside as much as possible.
 
do you want this to become a 2nd Vietnam? A war where no one wins and its just a decade of continuous suffering?
For Russia? Sure. Why would we do them any favors? I get the whole issue with how much money we send over there but we're crippling a rival. It's kinda worth it imo.

"Now why would le stupid Americans betray our years of le friendship!"
It's like it's illegal for America to get pissed off for constantly being fucked around with and used when convenient. God forbid we swipe at the vultures we're supposed to call allies.
 
until we get to see something its a nothing burger to me. its not like we dont already know there's a coverup we knew that the day he died
I don't want to shit up the thread and I'm not sure if I'm allowed to reply to myself on this but did anything ever come out or was it a nothing burger
 
That long run will be years, way past an election cycle, if not several. All for American consumers to pay a high cost for goods that used to be cheap and to eventually pay a marginally lower cost for goods produced domestically. What is to be done in the meantime to offset the high prices consumers will face?
Rate me late if someone already addressed this - but this is idiotic thinking. If you only think in the short term you print money like brrr, you bundle high risk mortgage securities to sell, you give risky S&L mortgages, you have a Fyre Festival sales thing, you support a man who can’t breef but can banana dance and then what? Think long term nigger.

A Pyrrhic victory done out of spite isn’t a victory. It’s also insanely bad considering China looms over the horizon.
Bad move considering how much Trump loves Israel. I expect a ton of bearded sand niggers to wake up dead.

I'm a very spiteful person. What did you expect?

That's also a valid point but to be honest I don't favor us defending Taiwan anyway since I'm not confident we could actually beat China.

The dirtiest of secrets is that after 4k, they're really kind of out of things to upgrade anymore. Even 4k is kind of marketing bullshit if you sit the "correct distance" away, but since you can now pause the show and it doesn't look as blurry as you walk past to get a beer, it sells.

But 8k is insane and pointless, the screens are already fucking huge, and nobody wants 3D. Where else will they go?

Even China will admit its practically suicide to fight the US military. It's why they prefer doing sneaky kike shit instead.
