You know NYC is already minority white right?
They could have voted socialist at any point in time. Americans could have had healthcare, 36 hour work week and a pension system. That is the tragedy of the American empire- instead of improving the lives of its…
Everyone except those who died in the camps.
Disagree. Polarisation existed long before Trump. America was going to face this sooner or later. The culture war was always coming.
Ah but you forget that the economic exploitation of the former colonies was supposed to continue. It is not so much communism that frightened the West as it was nationalism.
"incentive to move manufacturing back to the US" Only for the internal market. America will never again manufacture steel or cars for the rest of the world. The days of America being the factory of the world (which…
You honestly think anyone in the US wants to evaluate just why Americans turning to drugs? Nobody wants to open up that can of worms.
You are right but this requires Americans to stop thinking their country is perfect. Any deep introspection and the whole facade breaks down... Anyone who does not want to worship Jesus or Trump is welcome to check out…
Exactly. We don't live in a cyberpunk world were corporations run their own universities and have their own private army. Everything that allows a company to exist- from electricity to roads to law enforcement of…
On the ISS astronauts can call their family members but I think there is a 20 minute communication lag between us and Mars?
Yeah my definition of not well off is minimum wage. Maybe I am wrong here and Starbucks is really paying barristas 200k per year IDK?
There are entire skyscrapers filled with people whose job it is to make sure rich people pay as little tax as possible.
That is bullshit. With that kind of thinking there would never be a whistleblower or political scandal. Everything can be swept under the carpet because someone signed an NDA.
I remember a documentary on China and apparently they let people study medicine for free if they play Medicine Woman Quinn in the boonies for a few years in exchange.
Even babysitting 2 checkouts is still better than employing 2 cashiers. And that is assuming you can even find cashiers. Way back when I was a child the supermarket cashiers were women in their 40s who got divorced and…
It is difficult to imagine in this day and age when nobody gives a shit about computers or what they run on but people really did stand in line to buy windows 95 and 98.
McDonald's was always a middle class thing. It was never for the poor.
That is true most streets are after all only used by the locals who live on that street. It is also quiet in the evening.
Lawrence of Arabia was also a story about how superpowers abuse people and use them as chess pieces stabbing them in the back. But at least the Saudis had the last laugh.
Book stores have always put their own picks on the store shelves. Arguably it is one of the reasons for independent book stores to exist- the personal touch.
US Steel is in such a bad shape that Trump has to put a tariff to save them. At least foreign cars can still be sold in Japan.
I am actually using less mobile data since I have fiber. Of-course I can also get gigabyte speeds on my mobile thanks to 5G... (This country can be pretty nice although I will deny it under torture).
They want to go back to the days when rich people could basically do anything they wanted.

I recall something about dear leader Trump telling them to shoot the drones out of the sky.
