I personally agree with both of you. The german situation was bleak but I think it would be a misreading of history to think it was that hitler went after the jews simply because the germans were poor. It seems pretty obvious that they were

I have talked to a few people recently who migrated from SA to perth Australia. Considered one of them was telling me stories about white farmers being killed over the last few years and him not feeling safe anymore in the country (hence wh

Can you explain how the people against internet regulations are uninformed? I feel that when we are talking about internet regulations the burden of proof must be on those arguing for the regulation. So far I still haven't heard a grea

Did you grow up in the lower class though? You would never expect someone from the upper class for instance to join a street gang and rare for people from the middle class in general. You might think it is childish, but if it's present

by shard972 9y ago
I'm sorry but what is your counterpoint? That you don't provide ID so voter fraud is not an issue? This is kind of what i'm saying, that in a system where there is no ID checks, what stops fraud from occurring other than peop

Why bother when you can still vote in American federal elections without being required to show ID? As an Australian i just find this refusal to do this as bonkers considering we have a much lesser issue when it comes to election fraud.

Ah that does it. Yea i think the issue is that google knows im australian so it doesn't correct the mistake where the americans it's a big talking point. And since we are more closely related to asian happenings, it decided to not

Consider that this is the majority consensus in Japan and China. Imagine going to japan and saying "guys, this workplace is far too asian, what we really need here is some more indians, africans and arabs to get this workplace into the

Really? Again I see immigration as mostly economic and foreign policy so being left on that isn't a good start. Throw in the wage gap (an econ issue they are far left on) or their pro-eu stance (very left econ wise). Are you saying the

I notice you didn't include Alt-right in there which at the moment seem to be political ideology on a big rise and in my personal opinion, I think it's generally less radical than communism. Consider though that one thing the alt-

I believe he was referencing material capital as opposed to liquid capital (ie money). It would be fair to say the US not too long ago had a big headstart on existing technology/machines. In any case, I think China's cohesion can

Why not get companies like Amazon and Google involved? People are setting up microphones all around their houses and some even are adding cameras now. Hell even Amazon with their new stores could offer a lot in this field. We can just have
