  1. That does not make one more true than the other. An accused man calling the judge a murderer does not mean he is equally under suspicion.

  2. But if things continue to get worse...much worse...then the World you knew well is no longer the same.

  3. China has never asked for repayment, if they did, and America paid, China would be unable to export a single thing because their currency would rise in value to 2x.

  5. The idealogies that unpinned Rome lived on in the British Empire and now in an evolved form in the American military hegemony.

  6. In any civil war, what the army decide to do, and the loyalty within its ranks, is often the kingmaker. Typically, the army just does their duty and continues to get paid by the government. Since I don't think the Dems are at risk of starting a civil war by firing the first shots, its not their style, there is strong chance the army would side with the Democratic government. In which case, one billion AR-15s are no match for the equipment the army can bring to bear. In Ukraine, artillery backed with drones is the main threat. Also, I question whether all nuclear weapons can be kept secure in a civil war. After all, nuking a city in your own country is not against any international treaty.

  7. And if they catch you they will use techniques of persuasion straight out of your worst LGBT nightmares --> like making you listen to Elton John sing for 18 hours straight.

  8. 1st World problems. In China there is no 'bathroom to use' because the government reduced the value of labour to zero. You are a slave. @thetapheonix

  9. And the reason is both sides now have a 'total war' mindset. Democracy only work well when the winning side acknowledges they did not get 100% of the vote and then gives the losing side some things they wanted - say they got 40% they bend on 40% of the issues. Getting 60% of the vote and using it as an excuse to tread on the other 40% always leads to perpetual civil war, as evidenced in other countries.

  10. Brics is a stupid club. India and China are at each others throats. Russia and China are trying hard to become a pariah states. South Africa has fallen behind Nigeria despite being gifted the best infrastructure, laws, press, economy etc in Africa.

  11. It would read better as "Any empire long divided must unite. Any empire long united must divide."
