If someone told you that your job had to go and the solution to your concerns were: - Just move. - Maybe get retrained and placed in a new position over several years - Sorry, but it is for the greater good. Would you be appreciative of that person?

Willo567 posted:I don't know, most of the time it's pretty chill in this thread If you think this thread is chill I most certainly don't want to go to Neogaf. I find the best political discussion in nerd forums targetting a specific fandom with a fanbase over the age of 25. That way you don't get stuck in an echochamber but also people have something to say beyond lolololol.

And Syria effectively isn't a country right this second. The United States is alone in truly opposing it, and they are doing it for literally the most evil and stupid reason possible.

Kenzie posted:That's not really a fantasy though. You can certainly defend yourself from the government if you have guns. John Joe Gray assaulted a police officer and got away with it by arming himself and hiding out on his east Texas property with some militia buddies. He warned the cops that if they came for him to "bring body bags". The authorities didn't want another Waco and left him alone. The charges were dropped after 15 years. Also, we've spent 16 years fighting an outmanned and outgunned enemy. Even if hillbillies don't have RPG's, in a martial law/civil war situation other countries are going to be tripping over themselves to arm insurgents and militias in the US. Saying the 2nd amendment protects against a tyrannical government is stupid, but it's not wrong.

Willo567 posted:Off topic, but are there any other good sites for political discussion? Metafilter is okay. The userbase is well informed and the discussion is thorough. The only downside is in the last few years they've fallen deep into the "identity politics-Tumblr-left", so inbetween informative posts, you have to put up with people talking about how they're having "Dissociative episodes", "Literally shaking" and how there "ain't no politics like identity politics". But its mostly good.

I'm talking from a purely political perspective here, but some people seem legitimately confused as to why people in economically depressed areas with no other industry would like to keep their job that compensates them at an immensely higher rate than any other occupation available to them with their skillset and educational level.

Mystic Mongol posted:It's a non binding agreement so no. It's basically 194 countries agreeing to each find their own way to improve their carbon emissions. There is no enforcement mechanism, it is just every country agreeing that climate change is real and to do something. Leaving it is an announcement that you intend to emit more carbon, because reducing carbon in ANYs way is compliance. Lol at America outting itself publicly as literally the only nation-state in the entire world that collectively denies climate change is real in an official government declaration. We must look positively insane to the rest of the world.

The last time we tried to fight the entire rest of the world in a trade war, the idiots who thought that was a good idea lost elections within 2 years and we quickly waved the white flag. Which specific event are you referring to? Because there may be differences in the global economy between then and now that could affect the result. The economies of two of the world's three major economic regions are disproportionately reliant on exports to the United States right now.
