You must accept that no nation rules forever. No country is on top forever. History teaches us this. Many Americans (and others) find this very hard to accept so tell themselves the USA will be kings of the earth forever. Their end will come like the Egyptians, Babylon, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Spanish, French, British and every other country that was the top dog. The USA is a baby compared to the length of time some of these states ruled. The key point here - as many historians agree, is that many of these great and powerful countries of history were destroyed FROM WITHIN before the foreign powers came to conquered them.

Did you just say it's understandable to be racist because of genetics?

Please tell me that is not what you just said.

Cathy Newman? Is that you?

Why don't you explain to me what he said then, hm?  C'mon you can do it.  You can serve this one purpose in life then go back to no one noticing you exist, mate.  Promise.

So you're praising Obama for starting the recovery?  Look, you might want to see the President as being responsible for all parts of the economy but you also claimed that experts are also giving all the credit to Trump, which is not true.  The economic recovery started years ago.  

I'm not trying to change your mind.  I don't care if you want to give Trump credit for the moon landing in 1969.  However, what you said in the post I quoted initially is mostly propaganda.  Some numbers have improved under Trump, some have not--and almost all of it is largely inline with previous trends.  That is what experts will tell you.

Of course, we still have to see the tax revision will result in a spike, which would be credited to Trump, as would a deficit balloon if he is unable to offset the reduction in tax revenue.  

I didn't say the recovery is because of but the boom is definitely all Trump. I wanted to post this pic in this thread because I thought it was funny.

Sorry it took so long to reply, Cathy.

I was thinking about explaining the super simple and hard to misinterpret statement that Pagan had said but then I thought, why not just take it straight from the horses mouth. And here it is, a direct quote from Pagan. Read slowly this time and try not to get too carried away in imagination land, you can do it!

"Where exactly did i said that racism is in our genetics? I said to live in tribes is in our genetics. If this is racism thab everyone arround the world, living in tribes are racists according to you. And also that is not my invention. I just read a book about tribes and also alot of people on tedxtalks are talking about that. Are we all racists now or what."

Now back to no one noticing me...

So to explain a racist statement, quote the person who said the racist statement?  I read that myself, doesn't help his ridiculous case.

It's not that hard to not be racist, or "want to live in a tribe."  People don't "need time to catch up" - it's not the 15th fucking century, we've been being people for a long time and we've known there are other heritages than ones own for a long, long time.  Don't give me this tribal bollocks - if I can treat a Spanish person the same I would my own heritage, anyone on this planet can.

I'd imagine that one could say the need for empires or their overall importance died once America won the culture war. Sure a country can come up and be a bigger economy than us, but they will never have the same influence that we have. Rather than with bullets we used blue jeans and ipods to rule the world and no one can take that away.

Also don't worry about China. They're so many problems there that it's closer to a box of TNT than a country.

Dude.... culture changes.



I LOVE ICELAND!

OK, Cathy, I'm done having my way with you, time to put the nail in the coffin. You need to go back and read even slower than you did before and you may realize that Pagan was referring to TRIBALISM. According to you Tribalism = Racism (LOL!!!!). According to reality, Tribalism = Tribalism and Racism = Racism. If you would like to keep falsely misrepresenting what people are saying then you may want to become comfortable getting consistently schooled by reality.

Your misinterpretation of Pagan's case doesn't make Pagan's case ridiculous, it makes YOU ridiculous. Kids these days.
