Hillary defends her recent statement that she wishes to deport child migrants. Basically, Hillary's reptilian shapeshifting behavior manifests itself ...

Yeah, that's true, but from what I've heard, a lot of the documents are image form and not text.
April 15, 2016 at 16:48
It's part of the bullshit 'positivity' society we are living in. 'That's so sad', 'this makes me angry', pouty faced emoticon, 'oh wow', the sound bab...

2.6 TB of data being transferred over a year or two isn't something that noticeable, especially at huge firms like this one. So, the IT department cou...

Zizek on the Panama Papers.
April 08, 2016 at 01:14
Leticia Montoya, sitting on the board of directors and being a shareholder in over 10,000 companies, is a true example of genuine capitalist entrepren...

We both know that what No 10 said was a boldfaced lie. How is the public in the UK? Do they have amnesia and forget these things within 1 week of lear...

Wikileaks claiming that the Panama Papers is a US government psyop?
April 06, 2016 at 03:20
I don't know the answers to most of your questions, but what I'm starting to notice now is states simply reprimanding Panama as a state. For example, ...

Ha! What do you expect from someone who fucked a pig in the mouth?
April 05, 2016 at 12:48
Also, while we are either paying attention to these Panama Papers or whether or not the cop finally caught up to the chihuahua, one of the biggest bri...

By the way, Bernie Sanders was talking about this issue exactly in 2011.
April 05, 2016 at 06:51
It took them something like 15-18 hours after the fact to even acknowledge its existence. This is odd, seeing as over 100 media and news groups outsid...

While CNN has finally covered the Panama Papers, they seem to think this is one of the more pressing issues to cover.
April 05, 2016 at 03:30
The Editor in Chief of Süddeutsche Zeitung responded to the lack of United States individuals in the documents, saying to "Just wait for what is comin...

I'll just leave this here. Israel is a fascist, genocidal state. There is no other way to look at it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8WK2TgruMo

Unlike Hanover, I have history on my side, so the moral scale tips in my favor here, I think.
March 22, 2016 at 15:52
This debate has nothing whatsoever to do with whether or not Jews are forward looking or Arabs are backward looking. That much is completely irrelevan...

Where did liberte, egalite, fraternite originate, if not from the poor of Europe, or the anarchic tribes of Africa, America, Arabia, and Asia? We woul...
March 21, 2016 at 01:08
Here's the thing: America has almost never been 'great' for brown people or most poor white people. So, the benefits that you received have almost all...
March 20, 2016 at 22:49
Because we don't live in 1776 anymore and it turns out that almost every idea rich white people had were bad ideas that should be shredded and thrown ...

What the hell is it with you and sexual policing?
March 19, 2016 at 19:33
Every single foreign policy decision Hillary has made has resulted in massive instabilities, worse off conditions for the people, tens of thousands of...
March 18, 2016 at 15:38
You don't create movements in America by running for office. America has an unjustified faith in its electoral system. Most people think voting actual...

Nixon is basically the male Hillary.
March 16, 2016 at 20:00
Well, when it comes to invading America and reaching American soil, the best foreign country to ask is England. Drafting that letter to David Cameron ...

It's nothing like Syria...
March 07, 2016 at 08:37
When the need arises, it will be too late, just like in Syria. As for gun homicides skyrocketing, I'd suspect that they would skyrocket and the other ...
March 06, 2016 at 03:01
For the record, I am not in support of 'lax gun controls', I do agree there needs to be some agreed upon regulations. But I also think that people sho...
March 05, 2016 at 08:30
The issue is that if you look at gun homicide rates by country, there is no correlation whatsoever with the gun laws and the related gun homicide deat...
March 05, 2016 at 07:09
Guns are a good way to distribute power in the event there is a concentration of power in the hands of a state, or if there is a political army that i...

It looks like the US is catching up to Oxford-style parliaments. Two fascist Cubans whose families probably lost their slave plantations 'back in the ...

Obama should pull a fast one and say he's gonna nominate someone even more fascist than Scalia, the Republicans are all like "okay, we'll do it", and ...
February 16, 2016 at 10:24
Unfortunately I spent too much time in the scientific socialism camp, so my thoughts are not advanced enough to posit a fully fledged system worthy of...
February 05, 2016 at 06:59
You are talking about a completely different time and technology type altogether. The steam engine simply augmented human brute strength, but it still...
February 04, 2016 at 11:38
Well, remember that Marx maintained that labor creates all wealth simply because money itself is the material form representing labor time. So, becaus...
February 04, 2016 at 11:33
To clarify my position, I am optimistic that the technology can get to the level of societal-wide catastrophe. I am really optimistic that they'll fig...
February 01, 2016 at 13:46
I am more of the camp that there is warranted technological optimism, although I am pessimistic about it. As I come from a younger generation than bot...
February 01, 2016 at 13:30
For the record, I use 'suffer' here to mean simply a negative turn of events insofar as their profitability goes. As I see it, there isn't that big of...
January 24, 2016 at 00:58
So, this explains a lot. If banks are making profits, then people must be paying back their debt in droves. This would explain the weak demand for oil...
January 21, 2016 at 04:02
The US has drastically decreased the amount of oil that they are importing, starting since 2013 (which was the year that fracking and shale really sta...
January 21, 2016 at 03:36
Obviously the current economic problems are directly related to oil prices dropping, which comes from the US overproducing shale, right?
January 20, 2016 at 01:33
Usually, except in periods where there is grand delusion where the investors wildly mispriced some assets en masse a long period prior. An example of ...

Landru, you do know that when people play the market, they are basing their buy and sell decisions off of the most current information about the econo...
January 15, 2016 at 12:59
Landru, are you seriously suggesting that a stock market crash has no effect on poor people? Even when banking systems are so interlocked with the sto...

What about the ideologies that say violence was once necessary/is part of the long-gone past/no-longer necessary of the currently existing state of af...

Good god, the older I get the more I hate John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
January 09, 2016 at 19:27
You make great points except all your fact are wrong, so really you make horrible points. Consumer lending isn't at a standstill. Nor is it in the UK....
