  1. The USA "fighting for freedom"....ROTFLMFAO....

  2. The violence was initiated by the state, a long time ago, in a "War on Drugs"-policy. A "divide and rule"-tool to get citizens divided, so the tip of the pyramid scheme can skim the cream off the top and get richer and richer... These kind of "divide and rule"-schemes are being set up all over the world, but nowhere is it more prolific/clear/visible than in the USA. Demoncrats/Repugnicons? All the same cabal... They go to the same parties. The only difference is the people whose votes they are trying to buy... The War on Drugs means that "certain people" are disproportionately controlled, rounded up, sentenced, charged and locked up for what you consider normal. It also means that "certain neighborhoods" are disproportionately policed, invaded, controlled, and imposed upon by your state/local government/authorities. It's time to end the dumb laws that leads to this situation.

  4. "Stop testing = no crisis". Policy of the Stable Genius...

  5. Too many are just one paycheck away from disaster....

  6. Corruption and greed are like two snakes eating each other.

  7. Nobody should be above the law, and decency...

  8. I say build the wall. Make it impregnable. Make it indestructible. Build it high and build it beautiful. Build it all around... Then, the rest of the planet gets out the popcorn and chips and watch Americans destroy themselves with their own bigotry and hatred...

  9. 1989: Solidarity from the yards... 2020: Solidarity from the mines?

  10. 2018: Construction of Northstream starts. 2019: 2020 Washington DC: "We hereby order you to stop construction. We just sort of decided this just now."

  11. Go New Zealand. You rock. Congrats.

  14. Freedom of Speech in the ME = You are free to say what I tell you to say
    42
  15. Tired of all the "winning" yet America? 40 million unemployed. 100,000 Covid deaths. A nation more divided than ever. Cities burning... Reminds me of Fallujah in Iraq. Birds coming home to roost.
    41
  16. I agree that European countries should pay 2% of their GDP for defense. Not for NATO to be turned into a shield and as "flank protection" for a new round of a US started Cold War.

  17. 1:52 I would have chimed in right there and asked "Why was (the previous agreement) a bad deal?"

  18. It must be Obama's fault...somehow....

  19. Remember the "good old days" when a vegetable patch in the White House garden spelled "the end of America" according to some on the right...

  20. Corona hit the reset button for the world....

  21. Maybe they'll serve a few years, get off early for good behavior, and can look forward to a great future career in some well-paid private security company... Nothing will change.

  22. Spot the imperialist apologist...
    35
  23. The Bible says "as you sow, so shall you reap". The USA and the west have been "sowing" wars, regime change operations and secret efforts of destabilizing the ME and Central America for decades. Prepare for the harvest...
    35
  24. I agree with the lady at 6:30 The electoral college is outdated, and no longer suitable for a modern and generally educated population.
    34
  25. "Find" = "Fabricate"

  26. Well done DW. The world will never become better until good people can speak freely without fear of oppression...

  27. Take your country back...

  28. Trump has been waiting for this. He can now say "Yo Kim...howyadoin?"
    31
  29. "suspend"...lol To Eretz Israel fanboys, that means next year, or in 2 years...or 3...

  30. Usually in debates like in these in the comments sections, it doesn't take long for the emotional argumentation and logical fallacies to set in. For example, the "...but if we hadn't bombed city centers, how much stronger would Germany have been?" Easy answer? Not much. Historians who have studied air warfare in WW2 have already concluded this long ago. For example Munsen, Kenneth/German Aircraft of WW2 ISBN 623.74'6'0943 p. 13 "It has been estimated that Allied raids between mid-1943 and early-1945 cost the Luftwaffe some 18,000 aircraft in lost production. On the other hand, if these aircraft had been received, shortages of aircrew, fuel, and munitions would have severely limited their effective use." [End of quote] It was not as much the bombing which limited German industry, but the lack of resources, especially oil. Every raid, and every sortie flown in excess of what was really necessary against a few key industries (again, esp. oil targets), was a waste of Allied airmen and a waste of own resources. Every bomber downed with the intent to kill "Oma Schickelgruber" who was ostensibly "in the way of valid targets", an exposed lie, was a needless waste of own lives. Every Allied soldier sent to "save Stalin", was equally wasted. The price for such folly would be paid after the war.

  31. Well now see what happens if you hang on the lips of a self confessed cheerleader, rather than to believe smart people who implement effective policies?

  32. Looks like "money can't buy you love", and it can't buy you an election either.

  33. Too late. The damage has already been done.

  34. To be expected. The "land stealers" of the past, endorsing the land stealers of the present.

  35. I feel sorry for the lady at 4:45 mins If you're going to buy a gun, then prepare with intent, to use it safely by constantly training. If not, it will most likely be taken away from you, and used against you and family members. Just having a pistol next to your bed is not going to do any good.

  36. "Best fwiends forever and ever..." until you steal my pokemon card... Jeez, like kids in a sandbox...

  37. I heard Guantanamo has some free space. The new occupants can sport their favorite coloured attire....orange.

  38.  @qwerty-vp1sb  Let's not conflate two separate issues. First, the "marriage" as a legal procedure by the state, clarifying such things as inheritance or wealth distribution in a fair manner. Secondly, the religious "marriage" in a church or along religious guidelines. If you are religious, and don't want "others" to "marry" in a religious building, using religious traditions, then that is 100% fine with most gays and LGBTQs...

  39. OK. So if you're overweight, and have a heart attack, pay your own hospital bills.. If you're driving drunk, and have an accident, pay your own hospital bills.. If you have a dangerous hobby, and end up in trouble, pay your own hospital bills.. So if you play too much video games and collapse of exhaustion, pay your own hospital bills. If you swim in rough seas, and need to be saved, pay your own hospital bills. If you cycle in traffic and get hit by a car, pay your own hospital bills. If you overdose on opiods, pay your own hospital bills. Dangerous slippery slope there.

  40. Imperialists like their victims weak. People who just roll over and surrender, bow down, and say "yes mastah."

  41. Poland was in a post-communism mess in the 1990s. They only signed up for the handouts, not for respecting common values.

  44.  @thatkiddownthestreet8898  No, Israel never offered East Jerusalem. That was why the 1990s peace initiatives failed. Every Israeli leader even thinking about that will get assassinated by their own far-right terrorists. See Rabin. The "message" is clear. Stand in the way of eternal war, and "Eretz Israel", you'll be eliminated....

  45. Yup, a brilliant response to the dumb "you're either for us or against us"-rhetoric of the right wing.

  46. This was bound to happen. "Corona virus" is not the disease, but the symptom of a naturally volatile system of predatory capitalism (stock market). If there hadn't been this outbreak of Corona, there would have been something else to trigger it in a few months...

  47. Initially, most votes went to Trump, because most of his followers voted in person on election day, and these were counted first. That is why he initially lead. Later on, as the the other ballots were counted, Biden caught up, because many Democrats chose to stay home (Covid) and voted early or by mail. So, obviously, Biden caught up as these votes were counted. Nothing "weird" there.

  48. Every conversation which does not stress the fact that one side is the occupier, the other side the resistance, is biased towards imperialism. Every news report must start with explaining who the occupation power is, so as not to confuse the timeline.

  49. "No more chains. So beautiful." Great message.
