The US was founded as a oligarchy, only white rich males had any say. They started with genocide and land theft, grew through slavery and imperialism, and tRump has just dropped the mask they have been hiding behind for 250 years. Good to see people waking up to what that country really is, I hope they don't go back to sleep when he is gone.
I think the invention of religion predates that of personal debt. Religion/mysticism was the first large scale. systemic exercise of power over others: "Give me your food and possessions and I will bring us good luck." or "tell you the mysteries of the world", or whatever scam worked.
Actually, I remember the instructions for inducing a miscarriage (abortion) were laid out in the old testament. Part of it involved scraping up and ingesting shit from the temple floor.
41Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
The U.S. has ALWAYS been an oligarchy, it was baked in to the Constitution from the very beginning. Only rich, white males had the right to vote, and even after they allowed others to vote, rich white males still held all the real power.
The term "Ugly American" didn't appear out of nowhere.
Canada should rename itself "Above Age Of Consent" so tRump and his diaper huffers are no longer interested in it.
Dunno why you are getting down votes. The US has been interfering in other countries elections since AT LEAST World War 2.
It reminds any Canadian still spending time or money in that shitstain of a country, that they are openly supporting fascism.

The democrats and republicans both serve the interests of the oligarchs. Decades of their decisions prove that.
Conservatives hate democrats/liberals because they think they are communists. I hate democrats/liberals because I know they are not.
We are not the same.
That shitstain country doesn't deserve the name "Canada" at all. I will forever refer to it as "The Fourth Reich".
The oligarchs' offshore accounts.
Diaper sniffer.
“Amateurs talk strategy. Professionals talk logistics”.
This is what you get when your military is run by someone more fixated on testosterone levels than supply lines.
"Idiocracy" comes to mind...
Is there a transcript available? I can't make out what they are saying.
Found the guy who only reads the headlines before posting.
This is not about weed.
As climate change continues to make more of the planet's surface uninhabitable, this tech will become essential.
They have done worse, it is not unthinkable. Tinfoil not needed, just a deep reading of history.

MAGAt "Christians" hate this passage:
Matthew 25 41-46
41Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

Bending and spreading is not how you deal with bullies... just saying.
