Complete and utter non-sequitur but I'll humour you. I never understood American magical thinking that blames Europe for US military spending. In the end, if you want to cut military spending, you can. Regardless, you're the hege

That's pure conjecture. Even though this forums is anonymous, I would still be embarrassed to write such baseless nonsense.

OK but not wanting our personal records to be arbitrarily sized by the US government is very reasonable. Your government made a law that lets it spy on us... that's your problem.

If you cared about your fellow citizens, you could have the same. But judging by the hordes of mentally ill people wandering aimlessly around your cities harassing strangers (including visitors such as myself)—you don't.

The climate is very complex, yes, that's right. Its complexity has no bearing on whether or not climate change is real or whether or not we can do anything about it. OP's central thesis, that because the Earth's climate has

That's just German people. If they don't know you, and they're old, and they see an excuse to harass you, they'll probably go for it.

150 years out of 2000 is not consistent. If you value consistency, then ignore the current ruling as its relatively fresh and just carry on with abortion.

Any bike that costs as little as yours does is probably in reality a pretty poorly designed and built bicycle. Bromptons are actually pretty cheap as far as bicycles go.

Strategic ambiguity makes sense because they don't want to encourage Taiwan to declare independence by saying they'll 100% back them to the end. Blank cheques are great ways to start wars.

I thought the Chinese bullying of Australia has been largely recognised as a failure. Australia just exported to elsewhere (e.g. a lot more coal to India). If China invades Taiwan then most likely the USA goes to war over it. Anything els

The USA stole tech from the British Empire when the US was trying to build itself up. This is just the natural order of things, and I'm very anti-China and very pro-Taiwan.
