Considering how often I have to explain it anyway, I don’t particularly care. It’s neutral PR.

Abolitionism in the North has leagued itself with Radical Democracy, and so the Slave Power was forced to ally itself with the Money Power; that is the great fact of the age.

Really don’t care how I come across. It’s the Internet. My goal is not to make friends.

The plan’s more than just refugee resettlement, but you can keep your head in the sand.Lockheeb Martin wrote:Kowani wrote:I am here to learn.
It’s like seeing an egg fall from a plane, and then claiming since it hasn’t hit the ground yet, it’ll be fine. That’s what you’re doing.
And you can continue being proud of your failure.
No, I'm doing nothing of the sort. Unless you believe refugee resettlement genocide. If you do, then as I said last night, you are brave admitting your political affiliations here.
I look forward to your apology or reminding you of this when the Turks don't exterminate the Kurds.

Compare Portland and Baltimore. Similar populations. Both run by Democrats. Similar geographies (Baltimore might even be better off in this regard). Why is one prosperous and the other called Lagos on the Chesapeake?
Indeed there are massive cultural differences between the various regions of the United States. Which I why I argue that the US might easily fall apart just like the Soviet Union or Yugoslavia did.

What is the cause of those cultural differences? Geography? Is there something innate to the Chesapeake area that makes them utter failures when compared to the Willamette Valley?

Yeah, that’s not how predictions work.
Sure it is. I'll remind you of that one time you were hilariously and hysterically wrong as a means of calling into question your judgement on the next issue you will inevitably be wrong about.
Spell out right what your fear is then. Is it hundreds of thousands of dead like Wallenberg or just the alt right-esque fear of refugees?

If they do, it is because of existing economic realities and perhaps institutionalized racism, but race is an unquantifiable and inobjective concept that has no scientific backing or place in reasoned conversation as anything other than a societal construct, if you are implying that they are somehow more intelligent or determined because of their ancestry and "race."

Well, from what I understand, there are many mixed race people born in Hawaii, especially among those whose roots there go back many generations.
Also, I think Hawaii should secede from the US and restore its old monarchy. Does anyone here agree with me?
