In all fairness you have to say that the FBI contacted him because some of the death threats he received were credible. (he lives in California which is quite intolerant towards conservatives) I also wouldn't act in a consistent way if

Great, then everything must be fine! Continue arming Jihadists and keep creating a mess in the Middle East so we receive more of these fine people! It will only fasten the process I described before.

In 2015 almost half of Germans disliked the US, you do that poll again after we have received millions of Arabs and I can guarantee you that 75% of Germans dislike (or hate) you now. Saying anything pro US today will make you a social outca

You are on the verge of voting a women into office that is likely the most corrupt politician in US history that has ever run for this office. How on earth is exposing this bad for your country, you want to be ruled by people who steal and

It doesn't work that way, he doesn't hack the US, Russian or Chinese government and he doesn't direct other hackers, he only gets to leak data that was given to him by whistleblowers. So your calls for Assange to specifically

The big difference here is that in Capitalism you have boom and bust cycles where on average people still get more wealthy over time while in Socialism you'll always and without exception end up in abject poverty - and what's even

Yes, yes and no. I'm btw sure that many Socialists would actually agree that the statement undoubtably displayed hatred and xenophobia. He did argue against allowing people from the outside to come and live in his community because he

But you have to admit that these "party houses" are the absolute minority. Most offering are very restrictive in this regard. Anyways, I was being sarcastic by using the tools of a leftie. (declaring the parent to be a xenophobe)

The sad thing is that the US government had much less influence on its citizens 120 years ago than it has today. It is possible (I believe it's even likely) that humanity will never see such freedom again.

I don't know about PS Vita to PS4 compatibility but the reason why I decided not to buy a PS4 was that I'd have had to repurchase all the PS3 games that I've bought online before if I wanted to play them on the PS4.
