Trump isn't stupid, because he's old, Trump was born stupid.
Biden in his last few days as president could do that job better.

Even if Obama explained it, Trump's plans still don't make sense.
Blanket tariffs, with percentage calculations that fit on a stamp,
do not make sense.

I don't laugh at mentally disabled kids (Trump does), but I don't pick them for president. Elon Musk's disorder is being exaggerated, he's mostly just not as smart as you think, and has a bad case of not giving a fuck about other people. He's probably on the spectrum somewhere, but the spectrum is incredibly broad. Our best friend (who I talk about a lot) is on the spectrum too, but he is fully capable of caring about other people. The fact that Elon Musk was able to become the wealthiest person in the world, is NO qualification for being president. A president NEEDS to be highly intelligent, a great communicator, have lots of general and specific knowledge, a quick learner, and very much needs to care about people.
That's not discrimination, because that's not associated with being in a specific group. People CAN be old and (still) have all that. They can be young and have none of that.

I don't give my representatives ANY room. Live up to my expectations or I will vote for someone who does.

I would not have voted for Biden in the primaries, and I would have used the 25th Amendment. He was STILL 100x better than Trump.

Yep, a troubled man, who thinks that everyone deserves a decent life, and that it's
NOT OK to kill children by the tens of thousands, even when terrorists attacked you.
That's considered "extremists left-wing" nowadays.
It feels like hell, indeed, to have to share the Earth with you.

How easy is it to replace burger flippers with robots?
Those are exactly the types of jobs that will be gone.

Jobs like hairdresser will probably survive. How comfortable will people feel with a robot using scissors and razors close to their eyes and major arteries?
Production jobs will be the first to go. A lot of them are already gone. Repair jobs will take a bit longer, but with production becoming cheaper, parts will become cheaper.
It's possible to design complicated machines to be easily repaired by robots, by just exchanging disposable parts.

They are not spending trillions on AI for fun. They are intending to replace MOST jobs. That means that people will be competing over the remaining jobs. And that means we will all be vulnerable to exploitation. That's what happens to things that are scarce but vital. It is why a drug that is easy to make can cost $50,000 per dose.

What are you considering to be "college educated wages"?
Does it allow a family food, housing, healthcare, raising children and paying for their education on a single income?
If not, what kind of education is required for that?
How many people are in the position to have that, today?

That burger flipper probably has no education. What can he/she do, to provide themselves food, housing, healthcare, raising 1 child and paying for its education?

Stop talking about those lazy people. I am asking for the most motivated and efficient burger flipper his employer have ever seen, working his ass off 50 hrs/week. He just has no education, because he needed to work, because his father died of colon cancer and his mother was working the graveyard shift as a nurse, so he needed to take care of his 2 siblings. In your world, he is fucked, unless he beats incredible odds.

This is the education level in your country:
No High School Diploma (less than high school): ~9%
High School Graduate (no college): ~28%
Some College / Associate Degree (no bachelor’s): ~25%*
Bachelor’s Degree (college education): ~23%
Advanced Degrees (master’s, professional, doctorate): ~14%
Which of them deserve to earn food, housing, healthcare, raising 1 child
and paying for its education?

Do we agree about the Moon and Mars now?

OMG, in the first 5 seconds that guy made me laugh already. You are posting a link to a guy who will explain 'black fatigue' to me, but he is clearly spending lots of time and money to BECOME black.
That is the heaviest sunbed tanning, spray-tan or dedication to lay in the sun for months, that I have ever seen on a white guy. The grease is either pouring out from his skin, because he fried himself, or because he tries to minimize the damage to his skin
with gallons of skin care product. And the suit bugs me too; char(cough)latan!
OK, personal attacks are not arguments, but what a caricature of a man.

Oh, it's popular on X is it? Maybe because Elon Musk favors and reposts the shit out of that grievance porn?

Oh, showing some videos of black people misbehaving is validating your 'black fatigue'. No context why they did that there. Could be a reaction to some fucking racist. But, of course, there is never a reason to be an ass-hole, as a reaction to some ass-hole. We only get to see REACTIONS. And even if this was just uncalled for (1% chance), have you ever heard the term 'Karen'? A few videos are not evidence for black people being nasty more often than white people. Do you know how many videos of white people being ass-holes
I have seen? Or how many white ass-holes I have seen IN PERSON? But, I understand that it satisfies your bias.

Some people are insufferable cunts, the majority is white. Hey, I'm white...

His definition for "Anti-white-racism" are all the terms that describe actual racism.
There is no logical reaction to this. The only valid respons is FUCK YOU!

Oh, the cat comes out of the bag. He is repurposing the term 'black fatigue' in order to destroy a term made up by a black woman. He knows that it was successful with 'woke', so he uses that strategy again. How devious.
"The term was first coined and popularized by American diversity, equity, and inclusion expert Mary-Frances Winters. She introduced the term in her 2020 book Black Fatigue: How Racism Erodes the Mind, Body, and Spirit, using it to describe the cumulative emotional, physical, and psychological exhaustion that Black people experience from navigating persistent systemic racism and microaggressions."
He even admits this, but that's all IMAGINARY. Even if it was, it would still be a dick move. Are YOU, phart, seriously backing up this guy, saying that racism/discrimination isn't real, never was real, and is now only directed at white people? Can you say that, without fear
of damaging your soul? (You believe in a soul, don't you?)

Sorry, phart, I wanted to see this video to the end, but I can't stand that garbage person any longer than about 5 minutes.

I don't have to watch the video to agree that there are lots of Muslims in the world, who feel exactly like you're quoting there. There are also many Muslims who want to live in freedom from that ideology. Why do you think that people in Iran are protesting? When Saudi Arabia is beheading people, those are Muslims, who are rejecting that ideology. Your government is now arguing that they are helping the Muslims in Iran to live free, but your government is also helping the regime in Saudi Arabia to suppress Muslims like that in Saudi Arabia. Your government doesn't care about their freedom, it only cares that their government plays ball with yours. That's why the actions of your government have only resulted in creating more of the ideology that you quoted.
There is no reason for why Muslims could not be a peaceful religion, as much as Christianity can be called a peaceful religion. There is objectively less evil in the koran, than in the bible. The good parts are about equal. Muslims clearly have a longer path to walk towards what I consider beneficial to humanity, but that could also be a good thing.
It might be easier to drop a horrible religion all-together, than one that keeps lingering between half-decent and generally annoying. Just drop the primitive dogmas and finally evolve to using REASON to UNDERSTAND what's good for humanity, instead of someone telling you, based on what's written in some very old book.

If the greedy developers didn't have immigrants to exploit, they would just have exploited the Americans doing construction jobs. Your only defense against greedy people is a government that represents YOU, instead of greedy people. The problem is that YOU represent greedy people, instead of YOURSELF.

Remember when you said that we need these billionaires, because they are JOB PROVIDERS?
And now you are supporting that these billionaires replace those jobs with AI and robots.
They are not just planning to eliminate cleaning. That is possible TODAY.
They are imagining processes that take 10,000 people now to be done by 100 max.
It only leaves some jobs for the most highly educated people.
You are not supporting a system that allows everyone to maximize their education.
So, tell me what the future you are imagining looks like. PLEASE?

Going to the moon was a PR STUNT. It was ONLY intended to show the US to be stronger than the USSR. If you're really susceptible to such a dumb conspiracy theory, you are not capable of logically analyzing anything going on today. Not even the RUSSIANS ever argued that the US didn't go to the moon. Do you think some dumb-ass on YouTube can come up with better arguments, than the Russians, who had their own damn impressive space program? You acknowledge the technology gains from going to the moon and what the US was capable after. All of that is in line with ACTUALLY going
to the moon, instead of faking it. It's probably more complicated and expensive to FAKE going to the moon, without missing any details that would debunk it, than actually going
to the moon. Then why WOULDN'T they actually go? Do you think they would risk giving the Russians the best PR EVER?

If you think that some YouTuber has actually debunked it, you're wrong. Those people
are idiots and their pathetic debunking attempts can be debunked in minutes. A socialist, 'America-hater', like me, would love another reason to show your country to be horrible.
If there is any REAL evidence that they faked going to the moon, I would mention it every other day.

There is NO GOOD REASON to go to Mars. You don't have to show your technical dominance anymore. We all know it, and are trying to become independent from it, because you cannot be trusted anymore. Going to Mars doesn't help convince anyone not to. The only reason why Elon Musk wants other people to go to Mars, is to glorify HIM. Why would the US spend trillions of PUBLIC money to glorify a PRIVATE wealthy man? It's NOT for the technology benefit, because there are way better challenges to do that, that also benefit humanity much more.

Musk argues that Mars is a backup for Earth, for when we destroy the livability of Earth. That's incredibly stupid, because it is about a billion times easier and cheaper to preserve Earth than to make Mars habitable. Until it IS habitable, it's NOT a backup for Earth. It will require a constant supply of resources from Earth to support any poor soul living on Mars.

Phart, are you calling this a lie?:
"Keep in mind that trump is also college educated and yet he's an idiot."

Show me that Trump is NOT an idiot, by linking to a video of Trump describing
BY HEAD; some policy that his administration is implementing, clearly, accurately and with enough detail to make people understand the purpose
or cause and the expected result.

Someone with an IQ of around 100, should be expected to be able to have something explained to them, so they understand it enough to explain it to others, especially if it's THEIR JOB to oversee people who are executing
THEIR PLANS.

What did Trump specifically do, first or second term, to improve things for the southern people?

The root problem in America today is the incredible wealth inequality, and he has exacerbated that. He could have fixed some trade problems with targeted tariffs,
I am not against them in general, but the way he used them is so incredibly dumb.
That's the problem with voting for a president who doesn't understand anything.
If he at least would have brought in some experts, it could have turned out OK,
but he brought in inept loyalists, who just do all the stupid shit he tells them to do.

Handing out candy to kids is probably considered giving an incorrect message, because they want to teach kids not to accept candy from strangers on the streets.
However, our cops ride bike a lot, especially in Amsterdam center.

Dutch police primarily use bicycles in busy city centers and in locations where quick contact with citizens is desired. Bicycles are maneuverable in areas where car traffic is restricted or prohibited, such as shopping streets, squares, or during events. This makes bicycle patrols effective for visible presence and prevention in urban areas.

No candy, but this is comparable:

The UK was once your most loyal ally. Not so long ago, they did Brexit to turn away from the EU, and become closer to the US, with heavy support from your side of politics. They were promised prosperity and independence, but they got even a worse economy, unemployment, poverty, and heavy impact to working-class wages, prices, and living standards from 2016 to 2025.

The on air tv channels in the UK are weak centrist capitalism supporters and their papers are right-wing propaganda. Most people are waking up from right-wing lies, PURELY FROM EXPERIENCE.

And now the Green Party is surging, because they are telling the TRUTH:

Leopoldij is making lots of good arguments, he's just less sensitive with it. lol

"You are just unwilling to accept the fact that good can come from anywhere"
was clearly related to my comments too.

Maybe you would even agree that communism achieved some good things. This is a list that you might agree on for at least some points. It's picked with
a capitalist perspective:

1. Rapid Industrialization
Many communist countries industrialized quickly, turning backward economies into industrial powers.
Example: The USSR went from a largely agrarian country to a global industrial and military power in just a few decades.

2. Space Exploration
The space race was heavily driven by communist states.
Example: Sputnik (first satellite) and Yuri Gagarin (first human in space) were huge achievements for humanity, not just ideology.

3. Scientific and Technological Advances
Significant investments in basic science, medicine, and technology came out of communist countries.
Example: Cuba has medical research and biotech innovations that are exported worldwide.

4. Infrastructure Projects
Big infrastructure projects like dams, railways, and industrial plants were often built efficiently.
Example: Massive hydroelectric projects in the USSR and China boosted energy capacity. High speed rail in China is primarily government-controlled and funded, and far ahead of the American rail system.

5. Universal Education
Basic literacy and education programs were highly effective.
Example: Soviet literacy campaigns raised literacy rates from ~40% to over 90% in decades. That’s a practical skill everyone can appreciate.

6. Public Health Achievements
Some communist systems built strong public health systems that improved survival rates.
Example: Cuba has one of the best doctor-to-patient ratios in the world and very low infant mortality compared to its economic peers.

7. Resistance to Colonialism and Foreign Domination
Communist movements sometimes helped countries gain independence or resist foreign control.
Example: Vietnam defeating French and later U.S. forces, Cuba’s support for anti-colonial movements in Africa.

In general; the USSR forced the US to technically develop, by competition.
And to beat them, the US mostly used government funding too.

It's funny, good music, and looks hot, but you are fooling yourself that Trump and Melania are 'country folk'. Trump is a white collar criminal from New York, who imported his wife from a Eastern European country, through his best friend, the main villain in the global cabal that abuses children. Epstein was everything that right-wing conspiracy theorists shouted about from the rooftops. Since they never provided any evidence and all their claims turned out to be nonsense, I didn't believe it. But, damn, it turned out to be true, and actually covered-up for a long time by the powerful elites: governments, media, law enforcement, and corporations all turned out to be complicit or actively hiding the truth. And your president was heavily involved in all of it. It wasn't just Epstein, it was also Jean-Luc Brunel, who operated in Trump Tower. He collaborated with or intersected with Trump Model Management in the late 1990s–early 2000s (shared spaces, scouting pipelines, industry overlap). Multiple women accused Brunel of sexual assault and trafficking. He was formally charged in France in 2021 for r@ping of minors and trafficking. Brunel died in 2022 while in pretrial detention (ruled a suicide). Another global ped0phile cabal villain tied to Trump, and another suicide!
Since most of Trump's (former) best friends are implicated, QAnon is now 'vewy qwiet'.

Trump is the quintessential “carpetbagger”, a wealthy, opportunistic Northerner,
who exploits the Southerners. I cannot feel sorry for you, if you are this stupid.

Fine, build your damn houses yourself.

No, it's a sign that they don't believe right-wing lies anymore.
Most voted for Trump for affordability, but they are worse off than ever.

- About 22 million Americans enrolled in Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace plans could see their net premiums more than double, because of Trump. Many of them can just not afford it anymore. If they suffer any health crisis, they'll have to choose between bankruptcy and death. With more uncompensated care, hospitals will raise their prices
to private insurers, including employer group plans, to offset losses. Most people are
not stupid (or at least not as stupid as the cult), they remember what Trump promised.

- Taxcuts for the wealthy, spending cuts and tariffs for the working class.

- Fastest rate of devaluation of the dollar since the 1971–1978 Bear Market. That means that everything foreign made that Americans buy is going up in price, on top of the tariffs.

Interesting to add is that the Republican outspent the Democrat by 20 to 1 !
The Democrat ended up crushing the Republican, by a 31 point flip.

When Trump was asked about it, he pretended not to know,
but he had publicly endorsed the Republican and urged his voters to show up with his X post "Today is the day! ..."

I didn't check all the ~3 million+ pages made public.
Don't you think it would be all over your 'news', if they found even a hint to Obama?
They were outraged for days once, for wearing a tan suit!!!
He couldn't lift a finger without Fox 'News' crying about it.
You can be sure they would 'talk' about it, if he used that finger on a girl.
Hell, because he was so incredibly boring, they mostly made up shit.
Those were even the first political bowel moves of Trump; the birther shit.

Bill Clinton had the gravitas to get a grown women to suck him off out of free will.
He didn't need to pay models or porn-stars, or peep on teenage models, or grab unwilling women by the pussy, or use the services of a ped0phile sex-slave provider, like a small, insecure man, who needs to dominate young girls to feel better about himself. None of the release photo's or texts in the Epstein files is a claim of Bill Clinton doing something illegal, while there are many claims in the Epstein files of Trump doing something illegal. None of it is proven, but Trump's name is in ~5,300 files with references and ~38,000 total mentions. How the fuck did that happen?

The only question is, if you still have (fair) elections by then.
Trump and his cronies are already working on all options to either postpone elections indefinitely, with some Trumped up martial law, Insurrection Act, National emergency declaration or whatever the fuck, or get his cronies (election officials or electors again) in, to steal the election for real this time. He has an army of thugs to keep you under control.

There are lots of other types of reliable evidence,
that are used to convict people of crimes every single day.

It's good strategy to support releasing the Epstein files publicly.
If you know that Trump is in there 100X more, you know to be protected.
And there are still many whole pages redacted, which they would definitely not do
if the names of Democrats are on there.

There looks to be not enough evidence to indict him on, but there is certainly enough
to start digging for more. Piles of testimony is considered evidence too.

There is such a difference between your opinions for people you consider on your side and on the other side. Grasping at straws leading to Clinton. Obama is in those files ZERO times.

No I don't, I'm just NOT picking a main course of poison,
for a little chocolate mint on the side,
I go for the main course of 'as good as I can possibly find'.

ChatGPT: Al Capone did NOT come up with the idea of soup kitchens. Soup kitchens existed long before Capone’s time. They were started in the late 19th century and early 20th century as charitable efforts to feed the poor, especially during economic crises. For example, during the Great Depression (1929–1939), many soup kitchens were already operating across the United States. What Capone did do was fund a very famous soup kitchen in Chicago during the Great Depression in 1931. He reportedly served free meals to thousands of people, partly as a public relations move to improve his image during a time when he was notorious for crime. That’s probably why people mistakenly associate him with “inventing” the idea, but he only popularized it locally in Chicago.
Still ridiculous that Chicago needed a gangster for some social safety net.

I think that even fables as short as these are too difficult for Trump.
He says he uses his own morality, which is: 'Whatever looks good for Trump'.
Unfortunately, he even fails that morality, because he screws himself constantly.
That's why he needs millions of cult members, to keep him out of prison.
That man really has a gift for grift.

For the same reason all those powerful and rich people who were part of that ped0phile sex ring were protected; there is a two-tiered justice system, in which rich and powerful people can get away with almost anything.

Poor person gets caught stealing a wallet -> Could get 1 year in jail.
CEO gets caught stealing a many millions from people's pensions -> The company pays a fine, maybe CEO gets fired, gets to keep his bonus and possibly exits with a golden parachute.

Don Lemon was NOT interfering with law enforcement. He was also not disturbing the peace in the church, he entered it calmly and peacefully. That is not any violation of the law, until he would have been asked to leave and wouldn't. However, if he wasn't asked personally, as a journalist reporting on the protesters, he had a justifiable reason to stay. Journalists are important for reporting on conflicts, that’s why they are afforded protections under the First Amendment, which safeguards freedom of the press and allows them to gather and publish information about matters of public interest.

Your government says the protest interrupted the service and impeded congregants’ rights, and prosecutors claim Lemon’s presence and actions went beyond neutral reporting. Whether his presence constitutes protected journalism or unlawful interference is now a matter for the courts to decide.

The Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, 18 U.S.C. § 248, makes it a federal crime to use force, threats, obstruction, or intimidation to interfere with a person’s exercise of rights at a place of worship or reproductive health facility. I have seen NO evidence of him engaging in force, threats, obstruction, or intimidation. An unbiased judge will dismiss the charges.

ICE is not law enforcement, ICE are themselves criminals now.
Until they start to obey the law, they cannot enforce the law.

If you go somewhere that you're not supposed to, you get a fine. Unless you have evidence that Don Lemon broke something, there is no reason for a judge to be involved.
Religion is a first amendement right, so it should have protections from the government and people trying to take people's right away. A little first time 'interference' should not be a crime, it should be no more than an infraction/violation. The law should not protect religion anymore than any other expression of free speech. The term 'sacrilege' is a religious term, which doesn't fit the 1st Amendment. Churches should also no longer be exempt from paying taxes. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof …”

That's just in the US: U.S. sales weakened sharply in Q4 2025, especially after federal incentives ended, causing big drops in EV purchases, mostly because the $7,500 federal EV tax credit, a major incentive for buyers, expired on October 1, 2025.

Tesla is mostly failing to sell their cybertruck and many people 'still' don't like buying
their car from a horrible ped0phile fascist.

People are working harder than ever. They just want their jobs to pay the bills.

Worldwide, EV sales still grew in 2025, with over 20 million units sold and share ~20-25 % of new car sales in many estimates. Growth overall was still strong year-over-year.
Major industry forecasts still expect millions more EVs on the road in 2026, and long-run growth remains positive.

At the moment, electric cars are still an expensive purchase. The infrastructure is also still lacking a lot. Those 2 factors will change, making electric cars as the standard inevitable.

Cancel culture in the mind of a right-winger:
"I don't like how people are mean to me, when I am mean to them."
"That shouldn't be allowed."

It's a fact that in the US between 25-40% of your corn production is used purely for bio-ethanol for cars. Using the low number of 25%. that is 25 million acres of corn producing farmland in the US. If that land was covered in solar panels instead, it would produce
7.7 billion MWh/year in electricity. That is much more than the complete US energy grid produced in 2023 (4.18 billion MWh). If used to charge up electric cars, that would be much more than required by all cars on the road in the US, today.
The only problem is that electric cars are not affordable enough yet. But, it won't take long.

Here is a video that discusses ALL the other 'problems' you might think are applicable.

You would not say that, if it was FOX 'News' or 'News'max.
But, they would of course not be arrested while doing that.

Of the 9 people who were arrested in that protest, 2 were journalists.

When do you start to care about ICE breaking the law,
instead of the victimized citizens who are protesting that?

A woman can be grabbed by 4 armed masked men, and pulled into a van,
while the police is watching, because that's how ICE operates.
How idiotic for a country, to not just allow that, but organize that?

Before Trump, you would have said that it was your 2nd Amendment duty, to protect that woman, and shoot her assaulters, But now your idiot president hired thousands of thugs, who's uniform is just what the end up buying at their local military surplus. Who the hell came up with that? It's not just the cruelty, it's also the sheer INCOMPETENCE of your stupid regime, that makes me angry.

That's a comment of someone who lost the argument.

It's legal to do journalism about people invading a church service.
The fact that journalists get paid is not relevant and never has been.
Journalists who work for broadcast companies get paid too, sometimes
even many millions per year.

Journalism is no longer limited to broadcast companies.
In fact, broadcast companies are failing to do journalism nowadays
and new media is picking up the broken pieces.
You're not providing a legal argument, that will stick in court.

Here's a sign of what's coming: A local union leader and first-time Democratic candidate Taylor Rehmet, flipped a DEEPLY RED Texas Senate seat, on an unabashedly LEFT-WING working class platform, defeating Republican Leigh Wambsganss.
This WAS a reliably Republican district, that Donald Trump won by 17 points in 2024.

Lemon was livestreaming the protest, interviewing people and describing the event, not participating as a protester. How is that not doing his job?

Protest organizers and participants said they were targeting a pastor at Cities Church who they believed also serves as a local ICE official (specifically an acting director of the ICE field office in Minnesota). That dual role, religious leader and immigration enforcement official, was central to their reason for taking the protest into the church.
If a Christian leader is still involved in ICE, as it is operating today, they are unqualified to represent Jesus.

If police is going to arrest organizers or the main participants of a protest, which
is breaking the law, that is warranted, and the risk they take for doing that.
Arresting journalists covering the protest is clearly a violation of the 1st Amendment, and I am sure only intended as INTIMIDATION. You don't seem to understand that the 1st Amendment is intended to protect the people from GOVERNMENT interference.

The one who tries to solve the problem.
The crying one is obviously the Republican.
Even if you lot win, YOU CANNOT STOP FUCKING CRYING.

It was the time that everything was developing in the world.
Those advancements could have been achieved without an ideology of hate.
An ideology of hope would have created better, without all the suffering.
Hitler wasted incredible resources on this ideology of hate.
All those resources could have been invested much wiser.

Hitler's actions put the world back decades.
Do you know what put the world back in order? Socialist methods.
- Welfare states (healthcare, pensions, unemployment insurance)
- Public housing
- Nationalization of some industries
- Strong labor rights
- Progressive taxation
All over the world, leaders agreed that these socialist methods were needed to rebuild the economy and society, and it resulted in the fastest recovery ever. And then after, these measures were kept in place to recover all the debt that was created by the war and the recovery. It created prosperity like we have never seen.

And then the greedy demands of the rich were listened to again.
Taxes for the rich were combined with austerity for the working class.
And now the working class is getting poorer and poorer, and angry.
And the powerful use an ideology of hate to distract the people from their failures.
This is exactly what Hitler did, and people are falling for it AGAIN.
That's because people like you are unable to learn from history.
And that's why you are parroting this idea that Hitler created progress.
And maybe he did, for a short while, and then it turned to UTTER DESTRUCTION.
Which is what always happens in the world, when people pick leaders like that.
Why don't you learn from how the world recovered after that stupid mistake?

Do you think a model like her wouldn't have had the ability to make it out herself?
She was just lazy, and thought a rich man would make her life better.
I'm sure she has regretted picking THIS rich man, very much.
And until she is honest about that in her film, it's worth nothing.

Melania herself knows the truth. 'News'max is clearly lying their asses off.
I'll wait for her movie, that comes out after Trump is dead, where she explains
how horrible her life was being married to that man.

I feel bad for them too, but we have a government to decide when things like this are necessary for the greater good. I do expect my government to compensate them generously, and improve their living quality.

Government decisions affect people. The natural gas extraction in Groningen resulted in the demolition of 3,300 houses, so far, and damage and safety concerns for 28,000 buildings. Many people were left without compensation
for many years. Those people are far worse off than the villagers of Moerdijk.

Thanks for saying that. How many peaceful protests is Trump breaking up?
"It is a criminal act to intentionally interfere with the expression of free speech of others." Don Lemon was just arrested for covering an anti-ICE protest. If there is ONE thing that should be protected by the 1st Amendment, it's the right to REPORT on protests.

Yes, that's true. However, ChatGPT has ALL the sources, mine AND yours,
and it uses algorithms to figure out logical connections between ALL that data.
Are you doing that?

This was one time that I didn't have a clue about the truth of this, and I didn't care to learn, because it has no use for me. That's when I just ask ChatGPT.
I didn't even read most of it, just formatted it, AND I CLEARLY SAID THAT.

I mostly use ChatGPT as a factchecker. If ChatGPT is incorrect, I know enough to know that, on most subjects that we are taling about, because
I get news from many sources. When I ask ChatGPT something I care about,
I always ask it for it's sources and confirm what it answered.

So, how do you do it? Do you ask Google or some other search engine for links to information? Do you admit that all those search engines can have the exact same problem of being programmed by individuals with prejudices and agendas?

If you are finding information with a search engine, you are reading ONE source that can be completely biased. If you are finding information with AI,
it is usually based on multiple sources. That can be more accurate, but it can also be completely wrong. It all depends on your own knowledge and critical thinking skills to separate the lies and nonsense from the truth.

Grok is written by individuals with personal prejudices and agendas, ChatGPT is NOT, or a least FAR LESS. There is clear evidence that Elon Musk himself is involved in manipulating Grok, but that is exactly why people on your side favor it over AI's from more neutral organized companies.

By the way; if you think that AI is such a threat to the truth, why do you not BERATE Trump, for letting the techbros fill your country with AI datacenters and Trump wanting to forbid ALL regulation that would prevent them from destroying the truth for ever? Do you like being lied to?

I want strict regulation to make sure that no one can use fake pictures or video for propaganda, with heavy penalties if they do. The Trump regime just changed a photo of civil rights attorney and activist Nekima Levy Armstrong, to make it look like she was crying, while she was not. I consider that a crime. I DON'T like being lied to.

Lookatmine2 JUST said: "... a country that elected a half-black man to be POTUS not once but twice, and where the wealthiest woman in the world is Oprah Winfrey, and thousands of black men and women belong to the millionaires club ..."
So HOW are people of other races bringing attention onto themselves?

One of you is denying that have any problems and the other is calling them
all criminals. How am I supposed to take you lot seriously?

You're not dealing in reality. Your "facts" change according to what you want
to argue for. Discuss you ideas with each other first, and come to me with your combined conclusion, about how black people are either incredibly privileged or
how they are awfully struggling.

If you are saying that they are privileged AND struggling, then you are just saying that it's because they are black, which is: racism.

In any case, if that WOULD be the reality, how the fuck is IGNORING race then going to solve anything? IF race WAS the ACTUAL problem, then how stupid
is ignoring it? Your whole support for ignoring race, proves that wrong.
You obviously care about the problem, so explain why you don't want to fix it.

You're probably making a joke again, because it would be a fucking stupid thing to say, as an answer to what I just said, otherwise.

I am exactly saying that I DON'T want a stupid king to rule over us,
but a government of people with brains. We have that, much more than YOU.

OK, Trump ONLY killed one wife.

Why is that 'ironic'? Polls show that around 25–27% Brits are in favour
of abolishing their own monarchy, while their king has almost no power.
About 31–37 % of Dutch people want The Netherlands to be a republic.

I'm not one of them, because I see how awful your republic is.
I don't want ONE person to have so much power to only represent one group of people, and fuck over the rest, while they were voted in by only 31,6 % of the people who are eligible to vote.
I want all voters to represented in a compromise. And I want a cabinet that lays down their jobs, when people lose trust in them. None of your presidents has ever done that, no matter how low their approval had become.

And those problems are caused of the systemic racism that still exists.
Otherwise, you are arguing that 'blacks' are doing that, because they are black,
which is: racism.

No, race is an issue, because you cannot stop making it an issue.
You have no arguments against anything else I said, so racism is real.

How is racism voluntary, when the president repeats Neo-nazi lies that black legal immigrants "are eating the dogs", before he fires many black people from the administration, without any justification, other than the general one, that they were all hired as DEI picks?
Why is your president constantly publicly insulted the intelligence of Jasmine Crockett, who knows all of the law from memory and obviously speaks and reads at a much higher level than the president himself?

Can you point me to some of those 'Leftist race grifters', who are pushing 'Black separatism'?

A grifter is someone who makes money, influence, or attention by deceiving people, especially by pretending to be sincere, principled, or aligned with a cause they don’t genuinely believe in. There is a lot of it on the right, because right-wing ideology favors the wealthy. It is openly documented how almost all right-wing media, old and new, is funded by billions of dollars from the wealthy. To a lesser extend there is corporate liberal media, funded by liberal billionaires, but there is none of that on the LEFT. The left threatens billionaires, because we think they should not exist. They are not funding a movement that wants to tax them out of existence.

When I accuse the US of being racist, I have lots of other examples than that white people live there. Like the fact that ICE is racially profiling people to attack, consistently on a large scale, while we are speaking.

Being born white is not a sin, it's a privilege. No one is accusing me of having low IQ and being incompetent, based on my skin color, because I'm white. If I was black in America, I would now have to prove I am qualified for my job, based solely on being part of a GROUP, that was hired while DEI existed, without being INDIVIDUALLY assessed. Being treated as a ethnic group, instead of as an individual, is discrimination.

If melanin people are discriminated against, than why are white people on average still SO MUCH BETTER OFF, than black people on average? You can only explain that with racism or by engaging in racism. Which one will you pick?

The wealthiest woman in the world is NOT Oprah Winfrey, it is Alice Walton, the Walmart heiress, with an estimated fortune of around $101 billion. Oprah Winfrey’s net worth is about $3.2 billion. Funny how you put sexism on top of racism, and making a separate category for women. The wealthiest PERSON in the world is Elon Musk, with ~$700 billion+. He is white, from South Africa, from a line of apartheid supporting white wealthy people. He is also known from his weird waving, that exactly looked like two Nazi salutes, during your PRESIDENT'S campaign. No one on the side of your president has acknowledged this and condemned this, and Elon Musk was allowed to go into your government's finances and do whatever he wanted with it. Are you going to deny that those were intended as Nazi salutes, or are you going to say that Nazi salutes are not disqualifying for such an important position?

I owned a Yugo as my first car. It was 11 years old when I got it, and I drove the hell out of it for 3 years. I had spent my whole summer school break making it look a little less boring and tuning it a bit. I scared my friends with the noise and my driving style. When we were going 50 mph, it sounded like going 100 mph.

Unfortunately, the battery had leaked acid on the front suspension, which broke off during some harsh braking. Then the car steered to the right when the accelerator pedal was pressed and to the left when the brake was pressed.
I asked my dad if he could weld it all back together, but it was too big of a mess.
I was very sad about it, when we dropped it off at the scrapyard.

I completely agree.

The house is owned by the one who bought it. In theory, you could lose the house,
if you don't pay the ground lease. What you can do on that ground doesn't differ much from when you own it. You can build a shed, a fish-pond, a vegetable garden,
a fence (up to a specific height, and a sunroom, treehouse or sauna, within certain rules. It's mostly rules to not disturb the neighbors, because most gardens are much smaller than in the US.

In the Netherlands, land ownership does not automatically give you the right to build whatever you want. The government regulates land use to ensure:
- Safety (structural, fire, environmental hazards)
- Public order (traffic, accessibility, infrastructure)
- Environmental protection (nature, water management)
- Consistency with local planning (zoning, aesthetics, urban design)
Even if you own the land outright, you must apply for a building permit (“bouwvergunning”) before construction.
If you have leasehold, you also need a building permit for the same reasons as above.

Regulations used to be much tighter. When my parents bought their house, they were forced to keep the facade painted in the same color scheme as the whole street. After about 15 years, that was dropped, and people started using other colors.

Leasehold is more rare in the US, but there are areas in New York, San Francisco and Hawaii where people own houses on land that is owned by the government.

There are some rare cases in which people lost their homes because they didn't pay the ground lease. However, owning your own land is no guarantee against eminent domain. According to ChatGPT, eminent domain happens more often in the US than in The Netherland, even though it's rare in both our countries.

However, just last year, we heard that the village of Moerdijk in the Dutch province of North Brabant, with around 1,100 residents, is facing eminent domain, to make space for large‑scale industrial and energy infrastructure development. And those people own the land their houses have been standing on for many years, not the government.
