Comments by "Sun Tzu" (@Sun-Tzu-) on "Donald Trump Is Half Scottish. This Is What Scots Think Of Him. (HBO)" video.

  1. We in Scotland are so embarrassed that one of us mothered him. We hate him here.

  2. It is telling people that the Scots do not like him, the way that Trump talks about Scotland gives the impression that we like him or support him in some way. It was just clarifying.

  3.  @jeffw1267  The ones that don't are hated by the ones that do.

  4. ​ @phattorangecatto  It isn't as news worthy as other news, but Vice released 5 videos today across both their main channels, this is one story, who cares if it's less relevant than other news? Vice have covered all the stories you mentioned in previous videos. And it is politically relevant, Trump is in Britain, so why not do a piece of what the people of the host country thinks of him? Vice are constantly releasing videos that disprove and criticize Trumps actions, what's wrong with 1 story that attacks him?

  5. His great grandfather was a German immigrant, and his wife if a Slovakian immigrant.

  6. Those 3 people do represent the vast majority of Scotland.

  7. He got in a fight with the Scottish government because he demanded that their off-shore wind turbines were to be removed for spoiling the view from his golf course.

  8. ​ @OppaiAI  If you are a Nazi in this day and age, then you are either extremely stupid, extremely angry, or extremely ignorant, usually all 3, none of these things lead to a competent conversationalist. I could sit and throw facts and statistics with hard evidence at him all day, and he would only reply with some emotional attack on me or the sources I could cite, I have argued with more than enough right wingers to know this.

  9. There is very few people in Scotland that like him, the ones that do, aren't liked by the rest of the Scots.

  10.  @MT-eo6tq  It was one or the other, I made a guess. I don't think Trump knows either to be fair.

  11. ​@卍 DHFP卍 I'm not going to have a conversation with someone with swastikas in their username. I prefer to argue with people who have at least a single iota of logic.

  12.  @OppaiAI  I do prefer to argue with people I agree with, but I'm happy to argue with anyone who can hold an argument.

  13. ​ @OppaiAI  I am aware of the irony in going here, but I would agree with the 3 reasons also affecting discussions with religious people, but not with most libertarians or communists. How would I come off feeling more intellectual if they "guided the conversation", wouldn't I feel more intellectual by being smarter and more competent than the person I'm arguing with? No, I'd rather they brought up good points so I can learn something, if their argument is strong, I need to do my research in order to rebuttal their argument. If I'm arguing with some total idiot, all that happens is that they spurt out total obvious bullshit claims, and they don't listen to why their claims are wrong, so nobody learns anything. I like to talk to people who already agree with me, so I can have a conversation that we both enjoy and we can both learn. I never expect anyone to change their minds, I know that I'll learn more from the argument than they will even when I'm right. I also do it because I enjoy coming up with comebacks based off the material they give me. I have been proven wrong a few times in internet arguments, I, like most people, usually never admit that to whoever I'm arguing with, but I know it. I like to think it's the same on their end, they may not change their minds, but they know themselves that they were wrong. I would love to convince people that their ideas are nonsensical and harmful to society, but the very fact that their beliefs are harmful to society are because the don't listen to reason, so all efforts would be futile. I have watched 12 Angry Men, it's a good movie, but me with my "facts and evidence" can't seem to get over the fact that the jury provide their own evidence to the case, like the whole "you mean like this knife", which is not their job and their ruling shouldn't holdup because of it. :p
