I think this probably had more to do with the ultra partisanship that's been running rampant on the Left ever since a certain someone was elected, rather than the oversimplification of political issues on social media.

« on: March 09, 2017, 03:06:56 PM »
What I don't get is how people are always so quick to treat anything released by that FSB proxy as pure fact.

No one ever seems to question the validity of leaked documents or even why LemmyWinks only seems to target prominent western governments. Just that whatever supposed government secret gets leaked is obviously an indication of bad intentions.

it's not like the people of the DPRK were going to see a cent from it anyway
The people living in NK are already smaller than the people living in SK, despite living in the same area. The NK government having less money is going to result in poorer conditions for the regular people.
Honestly I don't see how it could really get much worse for the people of North Korea at this point, regardless of how much money is in the state coffers.

Nuking the whole planet? That's a terrible way to go for those who don't get immediately vaporized.

No, like what the poster above said, governments would try in vain to keep order as society inevitably breaks down. There would just be a lot of crime and mass suicides during that depressing 30 (years I presume?) period.

The middle east really is tragic, though. They're up to their ears in oil and money but are the least progressive (social, government, technological) in the world. They ought to be bastions innovation, space exploration, medicine, education, and culture.
Wasn't the middle east a bastion of all those things at one point in history though? Why is the region now in such a sorry state? Does it have something to do with colonialism/culture/religion?

>Hillary had the most faithless electors since James Madison 200 over years ago.

Every time I think she can't possibly get any more BTFO, she still keeps on getting more and more BTFO, and it's fucking amazing.
Still won the popular vote fair and square. If we weren't a shit country, that would've made her president.
Trump led everywhere but California. America is a federal nation, comprised of constitutionally sovereign states. Allowing California to strongarm the rest of the country would be ridiculous.
No it wouldn't. Why SHOULDN'T the most populous state strongarm the rest of the country?

I'll adjust this to be a bit more....realistic.

Why shouldn't the states who contribute most to the national economy not have a much larger say over the states who require the most aid and government assistance?
This is actually a really good point. It says here that of all the counties that Clinton carried, they contribute to roughly two-thirds of the nation's economic output whereas Trump's mostly rural holdings contribute to only a third of output.

Kinda offtopic but why were those sweeping surveillance bills passed in both the US and UK in the first place? And why were they passed at roughly the exact same time? Haven't they already been getting away with spying and hacking into our personal devices since 2001? What more could they possibly need.

Bernie Sanders introduced a protectionist anti-outsourcing bill.
Don't the republicans still control both houses of congress? I don't see why they would give this proposal much thought, especially since "starve the beast" appears to still be in full swing.

Nigga you expect me to read all that shit

People who lost jobs due to cheap Chinese imports tend to vote for more extreme candidates, like Trump. The US government missed a chance to help pay for retraining these workers and has a very few options left.
Missed a chance?

Hmmm, I would've thought Titan would be the most promising extraterrestrial body to potentially support life beyond Earth given its the only other body in the solar system besides Earth with a dense atmosphere and the presence of liquid methane on its surface. Plus its hydrocarbon seas aren't covered by 7 miles of ice like Europa.

Either way both are fascinating to me. I just have an acute interest in Titan over any other moon in our solar system.

21
Why Europa though in particular? Even though I know both are a ways down the line, I wouldn't mind seeing NASA direct resources to exploring Titan personally.

Anyways, I don't think Trump planned on winning. I think he was running to prove a point on how fractured the Republican party was. He's been quoted saying how he's having trouble accepting that he won.
Doubt it. The dude's a businessman, he doesn't give a shit about public service. I bet he ran simply because his friends in Moscow told him to. They're just using him to incite divisions within our country and to paint a negative image of American democracy and leadership to the world as a whole. I don't think he ever expected to win either, I imagine he only ran so as to possibly expand his real estate name into Russia.

Russia helped. No question there. Still, There's nothing showing he really intended to win.
Oh, I know and I completely agree he never intended for this to come as far as it did. He'll probably follow Dumbya's lead by stepping aside to let Pence take the reigns while appearing on certain occasions for pr purposes so that he can continue to run his private ventures. I still find it utterly disgusting that American voters are willing to stick it to "the establishment" by putting a Kremlin stooge in the white house.

Rubio has suggested enacting term limits on federal legislators and Supreme Court justices
That part sounds good, at least. I'm kind of on the fence on the whole "give power to the states" thing, though. On the one hand, it's necessary in a federal state and can be very beneficial on an economic level. It makes perfect sense that each already pretty independent area is in the best position to govern the people living there and to set forth the best policies that are adapted to that specific part of the country, having the best and most accurate knowledge on its state of affairs. But on the other, I can never fully shake the feeling that all these (usually Republican) calls for increased state autonomy and independence are really just reasons to avoid progress and cling to its backwards and usually pretty religious policies and traditions.

I don't know, I guess I just rarely see this being used for actually solid purposes. Most of it seems to be motivated by goals of keeping God's creationism in schools and evolution out of them, not allowing gays to marry, fostering discrimination and alienation of minorities, breaking down the (in America already very thin) separation of church and state and so on.
What else is new? The Republicunts have always been trying to find loopholes and ways to shove their bastardized religion down everyone's throats.

How about the abolition of the Republicunt Party and the public flaying of the Koch Brothers.

I still don't like having bases in the Middle East, especially when those bases protect the Wahhabist cancers of the gulf. Since the US is becoming self-sufficient in oil, I don't really see the need to remain in that rotten cesspit. Saudi oil means nothing anymore.

Also, if immigration won't solve Europe's demographic problem than what will?
