Twentyfirst

White Europeans are the origins of colonization but now it's mostly just Western countries regardless of race, color, political affiliation. But there are some decolonizers in the west and there are some colonizers in the east but mostly it's the west still doing colonization in violent and non violent ways and the global south being colonized. The West needs to de colonizer and the rest of the world needs to de colonize. 95% won't understand it on this forum though because they have a root belief that all power functions in the same way so if you leave everyone up to their own devices they will also naturally land in the colonizer role which just isn't true but thats the root belief that keeps them from seeing the whole picture

The end of the war isn't the end of Netanyahu but the beginning of a Palestinian state. No matter how uncomfortable or paranoid it makes Israelis

People need to stop being starstruck when they meet "famous" people

I think that plus they tried to get people to change language and pronouns and used threats, changed Hollywood movies, you would see it pushed on commercials, and basically gloating over a changing future that you will just have to swallow whether you like it or not. In Thailand they don't ask for much of you If you told the entire country that in one hour a nuke will land and kill everyone...suddenly people will start to care about it. I don't think people will care unless the issue is affecting enough people

No I was just asking for clarification. I go to Thailand all the time so I don't really have anything against it. I still think that something that has a low population of people will have trouble gaining traction simply because people don't want to change a lot for a small few

Zionism needs to go and Israelis need to accept minority position as guests on the land. I think it will inevitably happen

Nobody reasonable says she wore the skirt so she deserved it They say she wore the SHORT skirt and that didn't help the situation

In the Bible does it mention those trans taking hormone blockers and going under the knife to switch sex organs or however the surgeries now work? I think the key to the whole trans thing is just to copy Thailand. Every time I go there I see the trans integrated into society perfectly. Don't try to reinvent the wheel

You don't need to prove it. The accusation itself is the punishment. Not saying that he is innocent but the way these accusations work even if he isn't guilty he is guilty. For the life of me I don't understand why a woman would wait to tell the police. "I was ashamed to go to the police" seems played out. Maybe they need to come up with different degrees of rape. Like it was the position of power rape or was it the alleyway black eye rape or somewhere in between

Whatever happened to Trumps idea of building brand new cities to give people jobs and create more housing. I think that would have been more practical than trying to bring back manufacturing which will be mostly robotic employees. Would be cool to see more cities that can compete with NYC or LA

It became an agenda and it got packaged up with other things such as LGBTQ (the T is trans) and woke. Go to a Super Bowl party and ask if they care. They will likely care about the other issues more than the trans specific

The issue with trans is they are such a low population that nobody will ever give a shit Lets make all the cars miniature because there are a few midget people instead of making all the cars normal size and offering a few accessible custom cars as a side industry

It's punishing the rich for doing well in the economy They say that to the public because they have politicians in their pocket making sure it never actually happens

So if the choice is 0% income tax and 25% tariff vs 25% income tax and 0% tariff which is better? Wouldn't it be better to pay 25% tax which you could write things off or do other tax schemes to get it lower versus a tariff which you can't lower in anyway? But then again tariffs are only on goods and not other ways to spend money like activities and experiences
