I think it's actually true that Merkel cannot see Trump's genius.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

Even if you assume that is true (Hans last posted near the start of May), do you think your constant calling out of America, in your manner, is having your desired effect?

I am not sure what you mean by "desired effect".

I am merely pointing out the obvious.

It seems to me if you are causing distress to poster like myself and having no effect on those you think are following Trump, why not stop?

2. Americans can dial back on rallying around the flag when somebody outside of the country critics it.

I hate to be super nationalist or something but I like to think there is something not disgustingly horrible about this country and its people. I hope you don't find my radical jingoism obnoxious.

They say misery loves company
We should start a factory
And make misery
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

But why continuously point out the obvious when we've nearly all agreed with you?

We're too American if we don't daily say that our country sucks in its handling of COVID, and we're dogpiling if we call AR out on his bullshit attitude when he spouts it.

Can't win for losing around here.

He wasn't there again today

I think the allusions to communism are a bit disingenuous.

It's definitely aimed at a particular age group.

I do.  Being proud of the place you live and its people is one sure step toward nazism.  I can see the gaz chambers pointing at a not so distant horizon for daring to think like that.;)

it serves to remind the target audience that today's Russia is not so different than the former Cold War ennemy.  Rival interests, destabilization of foreign countries, overt military help to factions ennemies of the US, etc, etc.

it ain't meant to be subtle.  It's meant to shock and to ridicule.

I always take pride in the acts of others that I had no involvement with whatsoever.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

I never said anything about pride -_-

But I will heed your warning and turn from this path before any war crimes are committed. :P

Don Jr.'s girlfriend just tested positive.

Several of Pence's secret service agents also tested positive recently.

Seems like the virus is closing in on Trump and co. Will he be able to escape the consequences of his actions yet again? Stay tunned.  :hmm:
