Wow.

Americans think hot is cold, fat is thin, black is white, and Nazis are Libertarians.

State involvement in the economy inevitably leads to grift and corruption. It distorts supply and demand, while sending inaccurate signals to the market.

Over the past few decades, studies are showing something unusual happening: people aren’t willing to fight for their country anymore, especially in the West.

Back when I was a kid watching Red Dawn, I couldn’t see myself not fighting for my nation if it was in need, and I was far from alone.

In a sense, blowback is simply another way of saying that a nation reaps what it sows.

You know that you live in Hell when even your own wife is a Communist.

Even hardcore conservatives admit Trump is doing nothing to reduce the debt, restore the Bill of Rights, or end the wars.

Decades of bombing, occupation, drone killings, regime change and support for brutal governments have also fueled rage against the United States.

The 9/11 attacks were blowback. The Boston Marathon bombing was blowback. The attempted Times Square bombing was blowback. The Fort Hood shooting was blowback.

The very same Americans who hate Mexicans say Rubio should be the next US
president.

Americans say anyone who is the head of a political party is the leader of the world.

@shortstories For starters: He clearly don't have any training or real knowledge on the topic.
He failed to understand which BPD was discussed. He said Bi-Polar Disorder, but the BPD he talked about was Borderline Personality Disorder. Bipolar is usually medicated and usually predictable. Borderline isn't. Borderline is a personality disorder and requires CBT (cognitiv behaviour therapy), aka re-education. Although it's also a retired diagnosis now. They usually replace it with CPTSD.

@PurpCat @branman65 @SuperSnekFriend It is a living monument to suffering.

@SuperSnekFriend >people are defending North Korea
That's like defending ISIS. Is this just "picking the edgiest ideology I can find" politics?
