Europe, Boring Until it's Not

What's the x/10 on Ayaan Hirsi Ali, ND?

She's smart enough to differentiate between fascism and national socialism at least.

What broken idealogy? We are still in the Europe thread yes?

Nationalism. The bastard offspring of empire.

There it is. THAT is the division.

Our nation is dividing between nationalists and globalist/marxists. You clearly chose your side.

We've known that for a while. I swear if I didn't know better, I would think I was listening to a dumb college kid who knows fuck all about the world, and thinks his professors and that Elizabeth Warren woman from that documentary are preaching gospel. It is the exact same brain dead bullshit.

We've gotta get past nationalism man. /hitsbong. All us people around the world are all the same, but these evil nationalists and corporations are telling us we're different. /hitsbong. I learned all about it in those six times I managed to show up for my government class.

in fact, you'll find that the most religious among us are the least inclined to actually help their fellow man.

If it's a fact, lets see some work.

[Okeefenokee]

Put our own people first, then worry about helping others in their own countries.

I'd say we've got the resources to do something by now. Richest country in the world, reserve currency, absurdly huge military, and all that.

Face it. We will never, as a nation, do that. Ask your buddies how they feel about increasing foreign aid some time.

How bout you spend your own money and your own energy instead of trying to shame everyone else into doing what you refuse to do yourself?

And be more accurate. It isn't our money that we can spend. It's other people's money that you've taken the liberty of allocating all on your own.

I thought we were all out of a job eight years ago. How are we able to provide for the world if we are on the knife edge of revolution? History doesn't work that way.

It's like QB take-a-knee saying all the racial shit he was protesting is fixed now, so he'll stand for the flag now.

lol, still unemployed.

The NFL has effectively blackballed Colin Kaepernick

Speaker did a nice spiel a few days ago about how the division isn't between Democrats & Republicans, it's between Libertyists & Socialists.

Republicans can't be trusted to protect your liberty because they support an aristocracy.
Democrats can't be trusted to protect your liberty because they support collectivism.
Libertarians would protect your liberty but not for long because the masses would eat their lunch pretty damn quick, and we'd be Marxists.
Old style, Classical Liberals, 1960s Democrats, like me, would protect your liberty but I can't get elected dog-catcher.

Don't watch, or you can go across and help them because you care. How come you take it upon yourself to involve other people in your guilt.

Because me personally handing out some fucking food or mosquito netting is not going to make a dent in the problem. I can't give to a charity, because I know that 90% of it stays with the damn charity. It takes the power of a society to change things, and I want mine to do so.

Why? Perhaps I have a little bit of humanity left in me, that hasn't been completely subjugated by the corporate machinery and corruption around me.

Excuses. Wants other people to do it, won't do it himself.

Remember when Mother Teresa hung out on the couch because one person couldn't make a dent in it, so why bother?

Give yourself a pat on the back buddy! You are really making a difference! Fuck those charities handing out misquito nets dude. They should see all the great work GrumpyCatFace is doing on the Martinhash.com forum. Talk about sacrifices! He made 20 reddit accounts and personally upvoted over 2000 reddit posts about the Syrian refugee crisis! Is there any way you could do a TED talk at my college next year? I would honestly love to hear your full story.

ok, who's hey daralon?

[TheReal_ND]

He's from DCF of the same name.
