I see.

:starstruck:

So Brexit reinforced racism? It was seen as a stamp of approval on it? Hasn't the EU changed its rules about immigration since the UK decided to leave...

I don't think this is how we should do it. We shouldn't judge people on presentation because sloppy people can be awesome. Kindly old Irish people can...

Trump makes himself look bad. There's no need for women to kill their husbands.

That video is fascinating. I'll need to watch it again. It's a new idea for me that exiting the EU may have taken the steam out of some toxic elements...

It still feels to me like there's something about Brexit that I'm not getting. Is there an underlying truth? Something more deeply seated? Or did the ...

Why do you hold the DNC responsible for Biden's (assumed) nomination as opposed to the voters?

The force is strong in you, praxis.

What was the goal of the populists? I thought originally it was just to take over, but they really wanted to leave the EU. Why?

I respect your position. This comes to mind, though, about your view on reparations: Biden is playing to his base here, just as Trump freely does. You...

You want a benevolent dictatorship, not a malignant one. :up:

What do you object to the most?

Well just come to the US and apply for citizenship. Then see if by way of the Freedom of Information Act you can see the transcript with your own eyes...

Ok. Maybe people do care. :razz:

It's water under the bridge. Move on.

I don't think anybody cares about Schiff. https://i.imgflip.com/2spxr3.png

You guys should go sailing.

I didn't see that. I don't know who you mean. I guess the forum would just be quiet without a cesspool thread? I'm sailing! Waaaah!

Seriously, this thread has become kind of disgusting. :grimace:

I think the last tax cut was a mistake. It mainly helped the rich and there was no need for it. Water under the bridge now though, huh?

He admitted he was wrong in his lack of support for her.

In a democracy there's nothing to stop the people from reducing their taxes below what's needed to run the state. It's a weakness of democracy that is...

People succeed in reducing their taxes until the government is financially insolvent. There's one reason the US can get away with that, right? What ha...

In the business world trust is redirected to trust in the rule of law. I was reading that Islam was merchant law throughout Central Asia and spread qu...

Some people think it's a goal. A goal is usually a state beyond what you presently have or are. People who place democracy as a high value may be thos...

They might be trying to compensate for being profoundly irrelevant.

So it could be years before some sectors of the economy recover.

:up:

He's not a problem. He's irrelevant.

Some sort of exotic fungus maybe.

Covered this already.

More strawman. Why?

I don't remember the acceleration of gravity. I do remember that there's an infinite converging progression involved in answering your question. What ...

Strawman. Do you put out fallacious arguments on purpose? Just curious.

I see. So who is mostly impacted financially by the lockdown?

Will Europe stay on lockdown longer because of their governmental form?

The conflict that appears in this thread regarding velocity comes down to semantics and turns on this fact about instantaneous velocity:

Yep, that's what I do. 28 patients is way too many for one person. :grimace:

"From a conceptual point of view, instantaneous velocity is a limit: if you compute the average velocity (?x/?t) for every smaller values of ?t, you w...

For all practical purposes yes, we calculate instantaneous velocity. Actually instantaneous? Of course not. Most people can plainly see that that woul...

Correct. Most people understand that.

I'm not sure why it's such a struggle to get to the least bit of common ground. Cultural difference?

I thought you were using "liberal" in the 19th Century European way. So you didnt agree that concentration of wealth undermines democracy? That's biza...

Prosperity. Gigantic doses of prosperity. That's what happened.

I thought he meant neoconservative. He recently told me not to call him liberal. You're kind of a dumbass, tho.

Once wealth becomes concentrated, a superwealthy class comes into existence which has the power to subvert democracy to reinforce its power. This has ...

In a society where money is power, concentration of wealth will inevitably sideline the authority of the government, right?

Yep.

Concentration of wealth put them into a position to further concentrate it, right?
