I'm torn on if it's sheer laziness or if it's the spammer strategy of trying to screen for the people who won't notice massive red flags like that.

Maybe you can help out, but how debatable is it that the quality of life, economic output, and personal freedoms in West Germany far outpaced East Germany? And the same is true to this day on the Korean peninsula. Only thing I would add is that South Korea was absolutely a dictatorship for the first few decades of its existence. Since liberalization and democratization, South Korea has leapfrogged its communist brother in every measurable way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, "full government" vs. "half government" is one of the stupidest things I've ever read. And lastly, it's not like Germany and Korea are in petri dishes somewhere, free to flourish or not based on their own merits and circumstances. It's not like they were part of the Cold War or something, no. Also this. 1 minute ago, Chris- said: I know a white boy from South Africa didn't just talk about bad guys building walls... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ubi has swept the stink away enough that even people who really pay attention to the industry can barely remember exactly what the issue was. Big Lon reminds people every single day that he’s a piece of shit. He bought an entire social media platform just to mold it to his terrible ideals and amplifies how dumb he is even further than would normally be possible for any normal human. And that a big part of what used to be his fan base and potential buyers, affluent liberals, are part of the group he is specifically targeting with his nonsense. So I do think it has some part in its decline, I think it is looked at a bit differently here since the move to full raging vocal chud, and certainly doesn’t help. Though I agree competition is what’s really getting them, I think in at least in some areas, he himself can be the reason why people choose the competition. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You go bananas over how Trump is a great speaker and Biden can barely talk, and this influences your opinions of both. Then you witness Biden actually speak (and not just Fox clips) and you are over the moon with how Biden is capable. And then you reverse again a week later. Now you are saying the only thing you dislike about Musk is how he speaks. You clearly have some issue with people's speaking ability, and this strongly influences what you think of them, to the point where you ignore all substance. You're the modern equivalent of someone voting for G.W. Bush over Kerry because you could imagine having a beer for the former, and not the latter. I'd hate to see you in charge of hiring someone with a disability, or really anything involving appearance/messaging. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did I go over the moon when Biden did the SOTU speech? Give me an example. Then give me an example in how I reversed my opinion. I have absolutely no idea what you're saying here. I made a comment about Elon and that was it. You're from Canada yet are extremely concerned about the US so much in fact you post on this board every 5 minutes bitching about something political.

I care because the next leader of the US will likely result in actual (or not) deaths of many people, not only in the US, and the election will be decided by low-information voters like you. You keep making glib comments about political leaders who are basically evil, and then cover yourself later by saying you are just trolling. Trump and Musk are evil, evil men.
