dude, your culture has naked photos in your newspapers and boris johnson
it's all the same, just your idiots aren't going to talk as much or as loudly
No, titties in the newspaper and BJ are not the same as creationism and Trump. Hell, I liked the titties in the newspaper before they got cancelled. Hooked up with a Page 3 girl once actually, back in the long long ago. BJ is no genius, but he's no Trump either.
There are levels. Sorry bro, your country is full of morons. We're done bargaining, the next stage is acceptance.
Dude, you have no room to speak. Seriously.
Explain please. I gotta hear this, as I suspect you about to inadvertently provide additional evidence to support the claim.
actually, i think you usually see forums destroyed by one deranged freak who never shuts the **** up. not that there's much to salvage here, but
You too.
Go on, explain what you mean.
You guys enjoy punching down? Me too.
So the premise here is that you are... smart... right? Like, smarter than me or jal, right? Actually, let's aim a bit more realistically to start. Do you think you are smarter than Shifty?
Intelligence is determined by your ability to impose your will on reality. None of you are in the same league as me.
you had a bunch of politicians do an ole switcheroo on em with brexit
don't for a minute pretend the average brit is a smart person
they are just as malleable as we are
No, what actually happened was there was an orchestrated campaign that ran for decades and successfully brainwashed people with lies about the EU, and very little factual correction.
There is a wide range between "dense as a bag of hammers" and "smart".
this actually got me thinking we could do an academic olympiad between countries but instead of going by gender we go by profession
would be pretty cool tbh, probably can get peter thiel to fund it
Sure. In the meantime, we could just go by "show me your leader and I'll tell you about your people".
You're a professional gambler, right? You'd honestly bet on Americans (on the whole, obvs) to beat any other developed country on some measure of intelligence or educamashan-edness?
rickroll, I think we have a new leader in the standings. Back to #4 for you.
The western countries are the ones that are pioneering the way forward for the entire world, and part of it has to do with the leadership of Biden and the Democrats who have realized we can both continue to produce massive amounts of oil while also making sure that we create the infrastructure that will allow us to transition over the next 20-40 years to renewable energies that are going to end up being more and more cost-efficient. But let’s also not pretend that other environmental issues are not massive and have been widely addressed specifically by liberal democracies throughout the world.
Furthermore you talk about nuclear externalities as if they are the only possible externalities to exist. For instance in 2018 the US shipped a third of its plastic waste for recycling overseas to countries that don’t have the infrastructure to handle it. It became such a big problem that those countries had to enact regulations to prevent those imports from happening. Given just how much of a head start the US and Europe have had when it comes to industrialization, it’s not surprising that we started at the place where it made the most sense to lower our emissions first. We also have more of the technological capability to do so, and then once we are ahead of the game we should work with other countries to make sure they can grow in a sustainable way.
Your hypernationalism is going to lead to a world of conflict and war instead of peace and prosperity. I know you are ok with that but most people aren’t. I want the US and Europe to continue to be the global leaders that all other countries aspire to, and that means putting economic pressure on other countries and sanctioning them for their environmental policies if needed.
Trump has intelligence, but he severely lacks wisdom. That shoe don’t fit unfortunately.
Rococo, definitely one for your plot here.
This mean girls social posturing you do is pathetic D2. And it’s feminine.
How did they steal your money?
Not all of your policy positions have to be repulsive (or worse than J.D. Vance) in order for me to think that your overall worldview is dangerous.
