Anyway, lets find something better to talk about.

Anybody ever see one of the comedies about Trump? Art of the Deal was hilarious, and it's on Prime if you all enjoy that platform.

Look, i just said that a certain group of people are intelligent and the liberals are jumping all over me and hurting my precious feelings. I don't have to have a overreaching goal here, i can make my points as I please. The journey is the goal, not to have my various viewpoints (pro-israel, pro-ukraine, pro-capitalist, anti-MAGA) win or anything. This is just the internet. If you don't like my opinions, there are plenty of other threads to enjoy.

They like word games to slither out of the conclusions of their opinions. 

The tactic is called the motte and bailey and I see if regularly employed by true-believer leftists the internet over...

1. not a liberal, nor I identify with a lot of what they champion as causes in the last decade or so. 

2. What's up with so many of you posting something stupid as fuck and having tantrum when you get people quoting you? A minute ago you wanted to spank some members here and now you're crying. 

As you just said, this is just the internet and as part of being in the internet is expecting people to quote and reply to your stupid comments. there are plenty of other things for you to enjoy if you can't handle the internet.

I'm not the one with the problem, am i?  I'm just responding to people and answering back.  If my comments are so stupid to you, then you are more than free to talk with someone else

SCOOP: As Trump takes a beating from his own MAGA crowd for his handling of the case of Jeffrey Epstein, his State Department pulled a surprising move: It decimated its office combating human trafficking.

It might shock you that there is in fact a lot of discussion about "Asians being the most intelligent" as problematic.  

3. Asian Americans and the ‘model minority’ stereotype

Asians are good at math? Why dressing up racism as a compliment just doesn’t add up

6 Charts That Dismantle The Trope Of Asian Americans As A Model Minority

Asian Americans and the Model Minority Dilemma

“In middle school, I often heard the phrase, ‘Of course she’s smart, she’s Asian,’â€Â Xu says, recalling that sometimes she felt ashamed of playing the violin and doing well in certain subjects because they seemed stereotypically Chinese.

Why saying “Asians are good at mathâ€Â isn’t a compliment — it’s racism

You're also bizarrely saying you think they're smarter, and yet they're not a race - which makes absolutely no sense. Unless you think race is solely based on skin color or something - when it's actually based on any kind of shared traits. 

Saying that group X is smarter than its neighbors and also that they are not a race is not really a contradiction. 

Just so you understand, mr pi guy, there are only 3 races.  Jews, because they are a religion, are multiple races, and of almost every nationality.  And yes, they are more intelligent.  God said that he would bless them, and he wasn't wrong.  

You don't have to agree, but realize that you and Svenno are bringing race into a discussion that has nothing to with this.            

Edit:  I'm getting some likes for these posts, because they are resonating with the people here who also feel that gawd has blessed them.

Again, what do you mean with this comment

"Also, since Israel is the jew capital of the world, notice how they run their society so much better than the surrounding nations. It's like the Planet of the Apes vs the humans but the jews are the superior ones."

And I said that's a racist remark, racism is not confined to race as I explained to you as well. Maybe I should have been more explicit and called it a racial discriminatory remark.

Racial discrimination occurs when a person is treated less favourably, or not given the same opportunities, as others in a similar situation, because of their race, the country where they were born, their ethnic origin or their skin colour.

They are more intelligent than average.  Some would say that they are very intelligent.

Not true at all, food will see small increases overall. Get rid of welfare, food stamps, section 8 housing, etc will make food prices and housing go down significantly. Those social programs jacked up the price of all products artificially. Not to mention we will have a bigger work force which will also drive down prices of products.

Now explain to me how things that have zero effect on food prices like welfare and housing would have any effect on food prices. As for the food for food stamps, less than point one percent of all the food in the US are used in this program, so removing those would have no real measurable effect on the prices.

If you remove social programs the government provides you won't see the price of products go up artificially.

For example, if you give me welfare I will have more money to spend on products like food. Therefore driving up the demand artificially and causing inflation.
