When your oppressors are terrorized, you're doing something right.

Oh no a country is implementing laws loosely informed by its religious traditions and values??? This would never happen in the enlightened West.

I wish the new Asian users here would stop the "reverse discrimination" canard, though. Maybe your lives just aren't as interesting as many others?

The bloodshed wasn't entirely necessary, but ultimately an FF in regards to long term effects.  The French Revolution was one of the most necessary revolutions in history for reasons that should be pretty obvious to anyone who isn't a pro-elitist twatwaffle.

Though of course, since this is the Atlas, of course that number is going to be low.

when we are being sincere, what we say and the way we say it says quite a lot about us.

True Leftist Fallacy

1) An FF is someone who largely or entirely shares my political views
2) I, a socialist teenager, entirely share my own political views, therefore I am an FF
2) To be an FF the President should therefore be as politically close to me as possible
3) The President does not share the political views of a socialist teenager
4) The President is thus not an FF

Welcome back, HD!! As Sanchez mentioned, you are coming back to an Update-less forum, at least a Bushie-Update-less forum.  The curator of the Update, yours truly, is much happier without the Update, too!!

Don't worry, Hokey, not much is new.  Bushie is getting good handjobs, failing out of school, and his dog is dead, his dad is still working 60 hours a week to support his Klan, and his gf has a gambling issue and will break up with him soon for blowing her off.

Because everyone who thinks that the President is a wimp with no spine/actual beliefs beyond a wanton desire to hold political power is automatically an unrealistic, socialist teenager.

Hm...let's see. Oppression of Catholics, oppression of the labour movement, oppression of ethnic minorities, "solving" the army budget crisis by unconstitutionally ignoring the parliament's rights, several plans for a coup d'etat to abolish constitution and civil rights, Ems Dispatch, Annexiation of western Lorraine. Enough said?

Because the jobs saved were union jobs, where the workers are paid living wages, given healthcare and pensions, rather than the slave wages that auto workers in the South are paid. The goal of Republican policy is to destroy these jobs, not to save them.

I do want to put in a good word for the Fahrenheit scale if nothing else in that, in terms of subjective human experience, it does go from 0 as VERY COLD OUT to 100 as VERY HOT OUT, as opposed to Celsius's SORT OF COLD OUT to LONG SINCE DEAD.

For somebody who's spent his life in Western Europe and California I imagine it is. It isn't for somebody who's spent his life in Upper New England.

Alright, can we please not be ludicrous? Yes, Republican politicians - like Democratic politicians, but that's beside the point - are the opportunistic slime of the Earth, but you seem to be forgetting that the people who elect them are just as human as the rest of us. Personally, there will probably never be a day that goes by where I don't disagree with them on virtually everything, but that doesn't make them monsters or boogeymen.

While under Mandela, the ANC was a FF organization, it's now corrupt and useless.

Also, it's -10 C out right now and it sucks Tongue
