Trump said that? But...that's not how currency works.

If that actually came true then Asian countries would rule the universe because USD and Euros would be worthless

he said trade wouldn't be fair until all currencies had equal value. and that it's gonna happen sooner than people think.

If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.

evilweasel posted:

the only likely scenarios seem to be:

1) no-deal brexit
2) new referendum, with the only options as may's deal or remain.

maybe #2 is between no-deal brexit and remain instead/

The big issue is that the EU want this wrapped up before the European elections in April. Apparently another ref vote would take about 5months to set up. So that doesnt really fall in line.

I remember we also had the fun of blotting them with napkins to gross each other out with how greasy they were, so I guess they maybe count as an activity too

I believe the idea is that outsiders aren't supposed to pick up on it, and if they do, it can be denied. Like the Ok hand symbol, milk, and Pepe before it.

Generally you can tell by context though. It's always about jews, so just replace any weird stuff with "jew" and see if it fits.

He doesn't have to be a nazi, if he's blithely tolerant of nazis or truly doesn't recognize them when he sees them that's equally bad.

the literal only way you could ever accidentally drop a hard r without being a tremendous racist who uses the word casually in contexts you think are more private is if you are absentmindedly singing along to a song that includes it

even then you'd better not have slept in a week or something

"I'm not a racist, I just don't like Jews or black people. That doesn't make me a racist" - Something we've heard multiple times this year from GOP members.

Pewdiepie hangs out known racists with and visits racist websites. He's a racist.

Can you not see that this is an extremely unreasonable conclusion? I mean, we want people to use better judgment and to be more careful, but to claim they are just as bad as "nazis?"
